Madonna would never say | Dori's Dalliance | Taken for a Dino-Ride | As fun as sand

Nov 15 2024 65 mins  
Whose been kissing Madonna's brother? It's a Careless Whisper and the only living person would never admit to being jilted. An 80s frontman takes a swing at Taylor Swift. We do not want to be his social media manager right now. Did we brainstorm a more interesting Flash Gordon remake and Dori has been flirting with other 80s podcasts. When she realises how few awards they've won,

Hunting for Hörfest | Slutty E.T. | Workin’ for a merkin | T and T on TV

Nov 08 2024 65 mins  
Lost-core meets Hardcore as Paulo and Dori tie up a loose end from a past show. Two mysterious ‘’80s’’ songs appeared on the internet and the sleuths got to work. Sleuths and pervs. Halloween costumes got us having odd thoughts about E.T. as well as Roger and Jessica Rabbit’s children! Humans with rabbit ears or rabbits with human ears?!? Paulo hasn’t slept since.

Defrost Mr Ridgeley, it’s about time | Johnny 5 vs an Elon Musk killbot | The errant willy that didn’t stop believing

Oct 31 2024 59 mins  
It’s November the First and if the question is, “Can I start playing Last Christmas?’’, the answer is, “Why did you stop?’’. Paulo is not afraid of Elon Musk’s killbots, he has the best 80s robots - and V.I.C.I. on his side. Dori doesn’t want to see an American Psycho remake, less Patrick Bateman and more Jason Bateman & The Dregs of Society. Paulo admits

Whatchoo talkin' bout Gary | Surely the funniest movie of all time | Back to the Future Day | Freddy Krueger scared himself

Oct 24 2024 66 mins  
Don't you forget about The Breakfast Club sequel. We didn't but the internet tried to trick us. It's doccie time with the life story of Gary Coleman and the death stories of 80s hair band members. The resurrection theme continues in Dori's movie of the week while Paulo's movie is so silly it's almost art. As we celebrate #BTTFDAY24 we examine the technology that came true and th

Blame it on the Menendez Brothers | The Seinfeld Cast in the 80s | How an obvious cult inspired Footloose

Oct 17 2024 64 mins  
Milli Vanilli are back in the charts for the first time in over 30 years, and you gotta blame it on something. In less murderous brother news - Paulo reveals the names of the little dinosaurs from Bubble Bobble which prompts us to try to name their girlfriends with sub-par results. What were the Seinfeld cast up to in the 80s just before they became mega-stars, and Paulo thought

Dirty Decks | Is Wombling legal? | 80s dogs were the worst | Don't be an old Josh

Oct 03 2024 63 mins  
Nothing like a dirty old 80s deck to get the show started! Paulo wanted Michael Knight to be his dad and Thomas Anders is a dzaddy. 80s TV shows had terrible endings especially Three's Company, so Dori fixed it. We remember the Wombles and find out that Wombling is legal but frowned upon even though it doesn't involve burrowing or trash. Also, 80s dogs were d**ks, you shouldn't

Don't tell Corey | Bon Jovi gets his hair halo | Watch out for the meat mouse

Sep 26 2024 67 mins  
!!Warning!! This episode contains some outrageous Afrikaans euphemisms! Paulo and Dori are joined by Noel Opperman, The Curator Supreme of the Pretoria Retro Fair for a deep dive into Liewe Heksie, among other puppet related things. We dispute the denials about a Goonies sequel - we just think they don't want Corey Feldman to show up. Jon Bon Jovi saves someone who was livin

Don't @ Lou Ferrigno | Morrissey vs The Pope | Copyright Theft Auto

Sep 15 2024 63 mins  
Along with hulking muscles, Paulo has another thing in common with Lou Ferrigno - neither of them know their social media log ins. Morrissey must have a new publicist because he's back in the news and this time he's taking on The Vatican. Dori finds a tenuous link for her ''80s'' movie recommendation but it involves Jamiroquai so it was allowed - meantime

Retro Fair Recap | Whats the story morning Dori | Never Double Dragon without a safe word

Sep 05 2024 73 mins  
Paulo and Dori took a hit of nostalgia crack at The Pretoria Retro Fair and talk about the frustration of booking out an unwound VHS, arcade game survival tactics, oysters in the sun and finding The Lost Boys in the bathroom. Paulo tracked down The Hoff's song with Patricia Lewis and it's more spectacular than he remembered. Dori has a very intellectual podcast recommenda

#That80sShow | Pretoria Retro Fair | David's Hoff-spring | There's only 1 Superman

Aug 29 2024 56 mins  
Your favourite Eddies are headed to The Pretoria Retro Fair and let's pray Paulo doesn't find Garbage Pail Kids. We advocate for the return of overhead projectors, find out who is on Team Heathcliff and realise that we really hate the Snorks. Dori tells us about an angel with amazing hair while Paulo has odd thoughts about Mina Moo. We wrap up with news about a new Hoff and g
