Pointless Nostalgia

You see nostalgia everywhere — but people are always looking back at the same old movies and toys. Pointless Nostalgia explores the other side: the mustard brands, snack mascots, and defunct airlines you forgot existed. It’s irrelevant, educational, and weirdly satisfying. Stick around and you might learn something you didn’t know you remembered. 🎬 New videos on retro culture, forgotten food, and lost media. 💌 Business inquiries: [email protected] 📺 Also check out my second channel for clips and extras: youtube.com/@PointlessInternetMan 💖 Support the channel: www.patreon.com/c/PointlessNostalgia
