This week, we buzz the tower of 80s nostalgia with a dogfight between Top Gun and its off-brand cousin, Iron Eagle. As kids, we thought Iron Eagle was badass. As adults… well, let’s just say it’s less “fighter pilot” and more “after-school special with a soundtrack.” Then we jump to Top Gun: Maverick, a sequel that somehow didn’t suck. In fact, we …

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 cocaine trade.

Next, we count down our Top 5 Sitcom Dads of the 1980s - from sweater-wearing w…

Tony Villicana, one of Mr. H’s students from The Greatest American…

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 managed to lose them. Capes, perms, and slow-motion crashes abound. Then we ask the burning question absolutely no one else is askin…

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 just fuzzy VHS myth? We investigate… poorly. Then, it’s time to test Bill’s memory (or what’s left of it) with a round of totally rad…
