Description

1980s Now (formerly The 80its) is a weekly examination of the importance of 1980s pop culture and its continued influence today. We demonstrate that nostalgia alone doesn’t account for the contemporary fascination with our favorite decade. Instead, we share personal experiences and interview experts--including icons from 1980s music, movies and TV--to demonstrate the “era of greed” bore the greatest moments in movies, music, television and sports. The show is equally entertaining and informative.

Enjoyable, knowledgeable, fun and enlightening

This is a great podcast that manages to walk the line of celebrating 80s culture while also recognising its ridiculous aspects and examining it critically. I particularly recommend the Hadley Freeman interview.
