    It should have been just another regular journey... but in the early morning hours of March 24th, 1989, the Exxon Valdez was about to embark on a fateful voyage  This is a look back on the accident that not only decimated the Alaskan coastline and its wildlife but also led to a two-decade-long court battle -- a battle that led to sweeping changes, and historic fines...

    29 Things You Missed in Back to the Future 2

    It had been an agonizing four long years... but finally came one of the most highly anticipated sequels of all time. After Back to the Future became a massive hit in the summer of 1985, everyone wanted to see what would happen next. In November 1989, we finally found out. It was the movie that not only gave us a glimpse into the future, but, in a rare move, actually took us back into the original movie. But no matter how many times you've watched Back to the Future 2--have you really seen the whole thing...? This is a deep dive into all the hidden moments and easter eggs in the movie.

    The Rise & Fall of Radio Shack

    Before Amazon, before Best Buy, there was Radio Shack--and in the 1980s, it was your one-stop shop for all things electronics. Today, we look at the origins of the company--which go back to the early 19th century--then witness its rise through the 60s and into the 70s, culminating in its presence in every mall in North America in the 80s.  But despite being such a prominent part of the retail landscape,  Radio Shack couldn't stay on top forever in a rapidly changing world.  From the CB Radio craze to the rise of the TRS-80, Radio Shack was not just at the forefront of the PC revolution, but was a cultural touchstone of 1980s consumer culture.  Check out the old catalogs: radioshackcatalogs.com Support the show and get bonus 1980s audio content: Patreon.com/80s

    When Cassette Tapes Ruled the 80s

    Cassette tapes defined 1980s music. Not only did they give rise to the Walkman and Boombox, but also the art of making a mix tape. Today, we look back on the creation that not only changed music and tech but also pop culture itself. From recording music off the radio and copying tapes--to the panic that faced the industry--analog audio quickly became the most important music format of the 80s.  With origins going back to the 1960s, it didn't look like the compact cassette was going to hang on, until the Phillips company made a decision that would change the industry forever...

    How Star Search Changed TV Forever

    We live in an era where talent competition shows are a dime a dozen on TV. But in the early 80s, that wasn't exactly the case. Star Search was going to change all that, and in the process, it would change TV forever... Today, we go back to 1983 to revisit the launch and success of the talent show that has origins going back to the early days of radio. Not only did it feature one of the most famous late-night sidekicks of all time as host, but it also gave us the first look at many future stars, long before they became household names.  Bonus 1980s audio content: Patreon.com/80s

    Eddie the Eagle: The Remarkable Story of a True Underdog

    With his bright pink goggles and trademark thick glasses, Eddie the Eagle was hard to miss when he hit the ski jump at the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary.  But it was a miracle he even got there. After sleeping in his car and scrounging garbage cans for food, the journey of Eddie the Eagle was the opposite of his ski jumps: it was a massive uphill battle.  But his perseverance and determination could not be stopped, and the man officially known as Michael David Edwards would soon be given a new nickname, becoming an overnight celebrity in the process...
