The Room We WantedAuthor: Brian Colburn & Jay Sweet
Who you were before you became who you are.The things we loved growing up didn't just entertain us. They helped shape us. The music we listened to, the movies and TV shows we watched, the toys and games we obsessed over, and even the snacks we couldn't get enough of became part of the stories that made us who we are.The Room We Wanted is a nostalgia podcast about those memories, the people we were before adulthood, and the unexpected ways our childhood obsessions still connect to who we've become.Each episode, hosts Brian Colburn and Jay Sweet invite a guest to build the dream room they would have wanted growing up, choosing four things that defined their world: The Sound, The Screen, The Stuff, and The Taste.Through childhood memories, pop culture, music, movies, television, video games, toys, books, and favorite foods, those four choices open the door to something deeper than nostalgia. They reveal the experiences that shaped us, the memories that stayed with us, and the connections between who we were then and who we are today.Because sometimes, the best way to understand who someone is today is to discover who they were before they became who they are.

The Room Emily Wolfe Wanted: The Temptations, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Guitar Pedals & Diet Coke
Episode 5
Sunday, 25 October, 2026
What do The Temptations, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, guitar pedals and Diet Coke have in common?For Emily Wolfe, they're four pieces of the childhood that helped shape the artist she would become. The Temptations gave her an early lesson in songwriting, passion and the power of a great hook. Are You Afraid of the Dark? opened the door to horror and the adrenaline she still chases onstage. Guitar pedals became an obsession, a creative playground and a way to keep chasing the sound in her head. And Diet Coke? That one became something much bigger than a favorite drink.Along the way, Emily talks about the unlikely combination of Motown, classic rock and emo that helped shape her sound, the first guitar pedal that changed the way she heard her instrument, the thrill of finally finding the right tone, and what it's like to create music with someone you once looked up to.Four choices. Four pieces of childhood. One room that tells Emily's story.🚪 ENTER THE ROOM 🚪🎵 Browse the Catalog: https://theroomwewanted.com💬 Join The Roommate Community: https://www.patreon.com/theroomwewanted🌐 Connect on Social:https://theroomwewanted.com/social📧 Contact Brian & Jay: https://theroomwewanted.com/contactProduced by: Brian Colburn & Jay SweetTheme Music: “Rewind” by Brian ColburnTRWW Logo Design: DT Carel
