We're Ruthie and Lori—two Gen X besties serving up your favorite 80s tunes with a side of sarcasm and a splash of Aqua Net. Each week, we rewind to the greatest (and sometimes weirdest) decade in music, talking pop, rock, one-hit wonders, and everything in between. Whether you slow danced to "Careless Whisper" or just miss your Walkman, this podcast is your backstage pass to the songs that shaped our mixtapes—and our lives. So grab your Tab, pop in a cassette, and let’s relive the 80s… again.
