It’s all in the name of science… Weird Science.

Join us as we examine the magic and technology of Oingo Boingo’s hit song from 1985, Weird Science. We review the John Hughes film, explore the bits and pieces that make up the song, and navigate the diagrams and charts of the music video.

Let’s shoot from the hip and discover just what is behind those bolted doors!
