  • Love this podcast

    As an elder (Canadian) xennial, this podcast taps into my childhood nostalgia big time while also satiating my curiosity around the societal and cultural mechanisms that brought all things now considered 80s pop culture phenomena into existence. From ET to 80s tv commercials, it’s difficult to pin down a favourite episode. Keep up the research and fantastic work!
