🎙 First up, we revisit The Two Coreys 👬. Haim and Feldman, the VHS-era 📼 duo who ruled the 80s with big hair, bigger egos, and movies that ranged from The Lost Boys to “wait, they made how many straight-to-video seque
We’re back with another retro rampage through the 80s, starting with a high-speed pratfall into The Naked Gun universe. The 2025 reboot is coming in hot, but can it match the absurd brilliance of Leslie Nielsen’s 1988 de
We hit the mall, dig into 80s relics that aged terribly ( Soul Man & Garbage Pail Kids), then button-mash our way back to the Atari 2600. First stop: the mall. Back when “hanging out” meant wandering between Chess King,

This episode is pure 80s - fast cars, pastel suits, and enough powder to shut down Studio 54. We kick things off with John DeLorean’s desperate attempt to fund his stainless steel dream car by allegedly jumping into the
This week, we hop into a phone booth and dial straight into the heart of 80s absurdity with a deep dive into the Bill & Ted trilogy. From the surprisingly charming Excellent Adventure to the full-blown fever dream that i
This week, we’re crane-kicking our way through 80s pop culture like it’s a Cobra Kai training montage. First up: The Karate Kid . We settle (or escalate) the age-old debate - was Daniel the real hero… or just an aggressi

We’re back with another freshly unearthed lost episode from the 80s Show vault! First up: we take flight (barely) with a deep dive into The Greatest American Hero - the only superhero who needed instructions and still ma
In this lost episode from Season 1, we sink our claws into the 1985 cult classic Teen Wolf - including the infamous urban legend that someone in the bleachers flashes the camera during the big game. Is it real? Is it jus
