Episode Synopsis

Grab your treasure maps and decode your clues—it’s time for another episode Nostalgic Nights! This week, we’re diving back into one of my favorite adventure series, National Treasure, and tackling the sequel that took us from D.C. to Mount Rushmore and everywhere in between: National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007). And guess who’s back to help me uncover the clues? My husband (and history lover) Madi, returning as co-host for his second Nostalgic Nights appearance!We laugh, we misremember a lot, and we try to piece together whether this follow-up film still holds the same spark as the original—or if it’s just another recycled treasure map. From Nicolas Cage’s dramatic whispering to Helen Mirren’s iconic debut as Ben Gates’ mom, we’re breaking down everything from the movie’s wild historical twists to its real-life filming locations and box office gold.Plus, we chat about the rumored third film, Disney+’s Edge of History spinoff, and debate which National Treasure reigns supreme.So join us for a laughter-filled trip through forgotten clues, family feuds, and the eternal question: “Would you kidnap the President?”Follow our friends Nick and Chelsea @mickeyinminutes !
