Chris and Henry are on an continuing journey to visit the past, wrestle it into the unexpurgated present, … and perhaps give it the context it deserves. Joined by their social media director Megan, they review 5 albums for each month of the 80s and nail down whether or not you should dig these out AGAIN!

CLASSIC ALBUM EPISODE: Sports by Huey Lewis and the News
Yep, we did it. We listened to it. Track by track.
Was the world right about Huey Lewis? Does the album Sports deserve the cinematic spiel it was given in American Psycho? Do you want a new drug? Is sometimes bad, ya know, uh.......bad? Also, - an 80sMusicExposed FIRST!
We introduce NEW music from an artist we love JUNATIME!

OCTOBER 1983: Genesis, Lionel Richie, Culture Club, Cyndi Lauper, Nick Heyward
Just in time for your July 4th weekend!
October 1983 records include one from our Patron subscribers!
Was this the genesis of the rise of Genesis or the genesis of the decline of Genesis?
Should it be "Color by Numbers" in the US?
Was Lionel Richie's "Can't Slow Down" a "Thriller lite"?
Nick Heyward? Who was that?
Cyndi Lauper - did she popularize punk/alternative for the masses?
Genesis | Genesis
Can't Slow Down | Lionel Richie
Colour by Numbers | Culture Club
North of a Miracle | Nick Heyward
She's So Unusual | Cyndi Lauper

Customer Reviews
Adore!
Guys, I pay you the highest compliment by saying you remind me of the banter I used to have with my college guy friends. Megan, I’m so impressed by how articulate you are about the music despite not growing up with it. You three are just so much fun to listen to, and I love going back in time to re-enjoy this music that I adored then and still do now. Xo
Reliving my misspent youth!
I found y’all 2 weeks ago. This was my first ep and I’ve now gone back to the start and I’m up to Aug 80. Such a great show! Instantly accessible and your laid back style is exactly what my daily commute needs.
Oof
Good concept but cringe. This one is for friends and family only. And by friends, I mean that person you know who listened to the radio growing up but only paid attention to their favorites, doesn’t know how to use Wikipedia and somehow you don’t find annoying to listen to.
