Real Estate frontman Martin Courtney had loved Nickelodeon’s The Adventures of Pete and Pete as a child, but he was understandably skeptical of how it might hold up when it came time to show it to his own kids. Fortunately, Courtney discovered that it was everything he remembered and more. Listen to the singer chat about his rediscovery on this episode of The Spark Parade above, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Courtney dives into how, as an adult, he found that the show’s weird, sweet, funny nature helped it transcend the pitfalls similar shows from the time fall into. “I was really impressed,” he admits. “It really looks at the world through the eyes of kids, rather than filming kids being weird — it’s through their perspective.”

He ended up being so taken by his reconnection with the show that Real Estate created a Pete and Pete-themed video for their new song “Water Underground.”
