• 2:01
  Speaker 2: working for the weekend. Oh my god, I'm just working
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: for the weekend and can't wait for it to get here.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: But where did the holidays go? Like it just went so.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Fast they flew away.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: It just flew away.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Now we here are in the depressing month of January.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: So stinky. It's very hard, and it's not the least
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: bit cold here right now. In fact, it is almost
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: spring like, except we don't have the pollen and the
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: flowers and the birds and the you know. But as
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: far as the temperature.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not too bad. I went out for a
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: walk today during a lunch break.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Do you know what it is?
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: And wasn't coldpid? It's tepid. I thought only water could
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: be tepid.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but if it's January and I'm going
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: to be depressed, I would like for it to be cold.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: Well, it's going to get cold this weekend, so get
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: your boots on because.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Get your depression out.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Yea hear it comes here, it comes, it comes, smack
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: you right in the face.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Well, maybe that'll help. So we watched the very end
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: of Stranger Things we did in the last few days,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: and it made us reminisce back to when we first
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: started watching Stranger.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Things when we were in our twenties, when.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: We were youngins and made us talk about that Stranger
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: Things played a little part in us deciding to do
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: this podcast.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: I would say that Stranger Things and the Goldbergs were
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: the two things that got us reminiscing more about the
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: eighties than what we did even before. It was like
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: reminiscing on steroids, because those two brought up so many
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: things that weren't at the top of mine, right, So
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: really enjoyed both of those.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Well was the last time you thought about a banana seed?
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: Uh? Probably when I wrote a banana seed blast.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Oh boy, those things aren't made for our bodies.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: They are not They are not kind to the prostate.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh yep banana scene. I thought I had
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: made it in the world when I got a bicycle
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: with theacy.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: I thought I had made it in the world. When
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: I got a ten speed. I had moved on from
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: my BMX to ten speed and just thought that I
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: was like the bomb because I could switch gears now.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Well, so I got one. I got like a neon
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: pink and black ten speed pap on and Andy got
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: it for me, and I wanted it like they got
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: me what I wanted. But suddenly I looked like the
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: eighties version of Lance Armstrong riding around in my yard.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah there's a little stringe because you lived out in
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: the country. Yeah you didn't, so.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: It just it fell flat. It never took off, and
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: quite honestly, it may have ended my bike riding prematurely.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because you weren't having fun to you, because.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Once I had it and I wasn't having fun, and
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: I looked stupid because you had to like hunch over
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: to kind of like ride it. I just threw in
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: the towel.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there was just something and we see it an emmy, Right,
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: there's just something when you're a kid that you just
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: want to get older and grow up and get older
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: and grow up. And now I look back at how
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: stupid we were. Oh wow, how good we had it.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: What I wouldn't give to go back to maybe one
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Saturday afternoon in nineteen eighty six.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: I would get on my bike and jump ramps and
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: everything else that I didn't fear back then that would
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: now cause many broken bones in hospital visits.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Right, So, but I brought up Stranger Things for a reason.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Murray was one of your favorite characters on Stranger Things.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Yes, so funny.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: His names of Murray, and there's also a Murray on
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: The Goldbergs. But Murray had a phone number. We are
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: going to you dial this phone number in cal Murray.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Can I see your phone? Oh gosh, I called it
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: one handed, y'all. I'm a good catch. But booms, do
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: you still have to dial one?
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: When you're No, you don't have to dial one. This
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: isn't nineteen ninety eight.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: No, I thought you still had to dial No.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: Hi, you have reached the residence of Murray Bawman. Mom.
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: If this is you, please hang up and calling between
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: the hours of five and six pm as previously discussed. Okay,
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: And if this is Joyce, Joyce thank you for calling.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: I've been trying to reach you. I have an update
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: and it's about well, it's it's probably best if we
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: speak in person. It's not good or bad, but it's something.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: And if this is anyone but my mother or Joyce, well,
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: you think you're real clever getting my number, don't you. Well,
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: here's some breaking news for you. You're not clever, you're not special.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: You are simply one of the many, many nim wits
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: to call here, and the closest you will ever get
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: to me is this pre recorded message. So at the beep,
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: do me a favor. Hang up and never call here again.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: You are a parasite. Thank you and good day. Sorry,
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: this mailbox is full and cannot accept any more recordings.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Thank you for using the voicemail system.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Goodbye. Wasn't that funny?
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah? That was great.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Murray had something he needed to say to you. I'm
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: sending your phone back to you. Think you can catch it?
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: You think I'll knock your water over? Okay, now here
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: we go. I'm going to here we go catch it phone.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: I will walk off this show right now if you
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: even think about tossing that phone over here.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: This is what we do. All the time. People don't
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: ever know what to do with us. So speaking of
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: eighty stuff, you know, okay, I'm sorry.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: Every single time. I may as well not even be
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: part of the show.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: It's so dark over here. I need my headlamp.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: You have two cell phones over there with flashlights on
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: the ordered ad. But why did you interrupt me?
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Because it's dark, I can't see it. I need a headlamp. Okay,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: there we go. This is better. I turned my flashlight on. Okay,
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: we're good.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: Okay, good listen to you interrupt my story. I'm not
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: even gonna tell it now.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: I want to hear it. Nope, you blew it, Nope,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: tell it.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: Buddy Bob went to see Song Sung Blue. Bye Buddy phones,
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: my buddy Bob, my buddy, my friend, my pile.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Bob.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: Robert went to see the movie Song Blue about Neil
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: Diamond's career. Oh yeah, And he said, just give Kate
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Hudson the oscar now. Really that's what he said. Okay,
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: he said, give Kate Hudson the oscar now. And then
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: he followed that up with I don't know how Chris
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: Robinson got her and had her for so long. And
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: I said, because he's a musician, right, the Elephant Man.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: If he played bass, he could have pulled Anne Margaret
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: for a few months.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt, no doubt about that. Like that's a
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: no brainer.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know why that was even a question,
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: buddy Bob.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Oh, And he didn't keep her. He may have had
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: her for a time, but he wasn't able to hold
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: on to her.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: So no, because she moved on to another musician.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Probably I'm singing to her.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: I bet maybe.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's actually one that I'd like to go to
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: the movie theater and see. We don't really do that
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: much anymore, because I have all these weird phobias, but
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: I'd like to do that.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: Okay, let's make it happen. We'll see if mss Hudson
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: is really worthy of the oscar.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Let's do it. Let's do it. Okay, you have anything
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: else over there?
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: No, I think I'm ready to get to the day.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Sure, I think so, Okay, over there.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: Are you ready?
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: All right, let's go.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: I'm going to see if I can say it from memory.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: This is a podcast that looks back on the decade
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: of the nineteen eighties. We talk about things that were
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: important to us as children.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: Doing a big up job of remembering.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: And what we look back on with fond memories as adults. Ultimately,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: this is a nostalgia podcast.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Why don't you tell the folks what we are talking about.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: So we have pulled out the big old rock on Almanac,
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: the first four decades of rock and roll. It's a
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: thick book. Is this the one you lost for a while? Yes,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: that was really right there in front of your nose. Yes,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: we did this last year. So we picked nineteen eighty
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: five obviously last year, and we sat down and we
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: had at the beginning of twenty twenty five an episode
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: where we discussed all of the memorable and big events
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: that took place in music.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Movies, the news, news, sports, television, and all that fun stuff.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: And that was fun enough that we've decided to do
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: that for nineteen eighty six.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: Forty years ago was nineteen eighty six. How old does
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: that make you feel old?
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: Thankk you?
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: It makes me feel old because in nineteen eighty six
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: I was twelve. I just turned twelve at the beginning
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: of nineteen eighty six or the end of nineteen eighty five,
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: and so nineteen eighty six I thought, well, I'm going
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: to turn thirteen this year, so I'm hot stuff and
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: now I'm just old.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: Yes, so you are.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: But if I remember correctly, I liked that year. It
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: was a good year, and I look forward to discussing
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: some of the memories of it.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: You ready to get into this? Are we ready all ready?
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: What do you have memories of them? Nineteen eighty six?
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: If you just without looking at the book or anything,
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: what do you have memories of nineteen eighty six?
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Nineteen eighty six? I am seven years old. I am
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: in the throes of absolutely hating school. So like first, second,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: and third grades were tough for me, okay, and it
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: was tough on my mama because I did not want
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: to go and literally every day she dragged me, kicking
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: and screaming. So we were dealing with that nonsense. What else,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: ride my bike right, getting home, doing whatever absolutely had
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: to be done so I could get outside and ride
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: my bike, because that's that was the life. That's what
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: I did very much. Still into Saturday morning cartoons, m hmm,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: A good piece of cinnamon toast and sitting down and
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: watching me some dungeons and dragons, and it was a
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: good day.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: See in nineteen eighty six. I may have been nearing
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: the end of my cartoon watching, but I probably still
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: watched a few holdovers like Alvin and the Chipmunks, maybe
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: maybe the Muppet Babies. Yeah, but I wouldn't sit down
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: with cinnamon toast. I would sit down with a bowl
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: of cinnamon toast crunch. Oh, there you go, and that's
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: way better than cinnamon toast. I don't know, I don't know.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: It's pretty tough, but yeah, I was. I was in
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: fifth and sixth grade in nineteen eighty six, I think so.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: So yeah, it was. You know, it was a good year.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: I mean I enjoyed it. Being a kid's always fun.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: So did your dad have to drag you to school
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: kicking and screaming? Like?
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: I didn't.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: Now, don't get me wrong. I did not really enjoy
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: the working part of school, but I did enjoy the
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: social aspect of school, and so I didn't have to
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: be drugg to school. I can tell you that.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: Our middle stow let me clarify, she did not drug me.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: She dragged me.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: She dragged you. All right. Middle school was only like
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: two blocks away, so I would walk to school and
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: walk home. But I do remember in the winter, like
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: I would wake up, take a shower, get out of
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: the shower, not blow dry my hair, just kind of
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: fix it, you know, get dressed real quick and then
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: leave and so technically my hair it's amazing. I wasn't
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: sick all year. My hair was still wet when I left,
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: and by the time I got to school in the winter,
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: it was like frozen. Way, yes it was. It was frozen,
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: so it was you know, there would be some like
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: ice on top of it. So it was kind of
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: the first time I noticed that. I'm like, oh wow,
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: that's uh, I'm gonna do that again. Okay, uh not
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: on perfect It was just I like to sleep till
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: the last minute and then get ready to hurry and
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: then leave. So nothing has changed in the last forty years.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: No, that that is still the same. So ride my bicycle.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: My favorite thing to do would be to have some
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: big chew gum. Was it big big, big league chew,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: big league chew gum big chew. I mean that's what
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: I had in my mouth, was a big chew chew chew.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: But I love that. I was such a tomboy.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was not a tomboy. I was just a boy,
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: but I did. I did like the Big League Chew.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I loved it.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: I did like the Big League Chew. All right, So
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: are you ready to dive into nineteen eighty six?
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: Into the d's here, I'm excited.

  Speaker 2: my Project Chillenge science class, So there was only like
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: six or seven of us in there, and the science
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: teacher had the TV on and we saw I don't
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: think we saw it live. I think we saw the
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: replays of it, and she was just like oh my gosh.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: And then I hope she turned it off quickly.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: No.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: I mean, there wasn't anything to see except for an explosion.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: You couldn't even really tell what happened as a kid,
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: you know. But yeah, I remember coming home and my
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: mom asking me if I was okay, and I was like, well, yeah,
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: like I didn't know any of those people, why wouldn't
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: I be okay?
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: No.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: I know what's funny, because that is definitely a situation
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: where if you're a child of the eighties, people always say,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: do you remember where you were day? Do you remember
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: where you were when you heard that this had happened? Right, So,
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: ironically enough about what I mentioned earlier, I had not
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: gone to school that day, and they, I guess, just
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: gave up on trying to get me there. And so
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: mom and Dad were out running errands and I was
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: just tagging along and they heard it on the radio,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: and I just remember I didn't fully, of course, grasp right,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: you know, the situation and the seriousness of it, but
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: I remember feeling their emotions and understanding that this was
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: something pretty And then I remember everywhere we went, whoever
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: they saw, you know, like the bank you going at
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: the bank edge out to the bank people, have you
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: heard right? You know, everywhere we went then that day
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: they had to talk to anybody that they saw about it.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it was one of those things that I
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: was like, Yeah, I'm not so sure I want to
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: be an astronaut anymore.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: Right, I know why every little kid, I think at
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: some point wants to be an asterisk.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: Because going up into space seems cool. Yeah, right now,
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: I've seen enough alien movies that it seems horrifying between
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: alien and Armageddon, scariest environment imaginable.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's that's very true. It's so funny. I
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: think we're definitely more numb to catastrophes or just really
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: sad things happening now because I think it's like at
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: our fingertips twenty four to seven. But I feel like
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: back then it was like it was a really big
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: deal and it was very sad.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: It was a huge deal. But I think I get
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: more upset noways and I did back then. I think
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: maybe little twelve year old Jim may have been a
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: sociopath or something.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: No, you just didn't. I mean I don't think a
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: child like I wasn't upset, But I mean I got
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: that it was a sad situation, right, but I wasn't
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: personally upset. I don't think as a child, you can
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: like understand the gravity our world.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: That's another outer space movie. Gravity.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: Our world is small, Like little Lenz is only going
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: to be upset if something happens to mom or Dad
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: or Papa or nanny, you know, or my dog or
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: my cat. You know. Like right, I might understand that
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: it's a sad situation, but I didn't know those people,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: so I'm not going to be sad. So I don't
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: think that there is anything wrong with you. Yeah, okay,
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: does that make you feel better? I guess, yeah, okay.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Showered in fireworks, the Statue of Liberty celebrates its one
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: hundredth birthday.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: So eighteen eighty six is when the Statue of Liberty
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: was first born, I guess, born out of France and
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: shipped over here piece by piece so we could then
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: build it. What do you think about it being a
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: gift from France?
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, you and I live in a household
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: that apparently we love Paris and France, and so I
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: don't know if Emmy's aware of the fact that the
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: Statue of Liberty was a gift from France.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: But well, there's two things I love about France. Forget
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: Paris and pepe le pew.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Okay, Prince Andrew twenty six years old, fourth in line
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: to the British throne. Yeah, that didn't age well, Mary
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: Sarah Ferguson in London.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: I don't know who. Isn't he a drunk or so?
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know well. And the reason why I'm talking
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: about this is because he just recently had to and
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: he's had already. He had to give up his title,
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: but he's had to move out of I don't know
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: wherever he lived because of his alleged connections to the
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: mob Epstein.
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: Oh that's why I apologize for calling him a drunk.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's why I brought that up.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: Okay, I don't know all those British reals unless it's
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: Charles and Diana. I get them, I get the rest
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: of them confused.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Back when I first started my radio career, I was
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: on a morning show and I don't remember how this
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: came up, quite honestly, talking about the royal family, and
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: somehow it came up do they not have last names?
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: And that blew my mind? How do you not have
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: a last name. So that was a whole big segment
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: that we did on the Morning show.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: Do they have last name?
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: No, they don't have last names. Really, no, they don't
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: have last names.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: So he's like here, Prince Andrew, now he has not
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: Prince Andrew Sutherland. Yeah no, uh huh no.
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: But he married Sarah Ferguson. I had a last name.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, because she was a commoner.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: So Princess Mary commoners. It's like Cinderella. Well, I don't
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: think you're supposed to Well, Diana was a commoner. She was,
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: and we see how that ended. Wasn't his uh, his
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: fling lady that he's married to now a commoner?
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: Or was she was? She was real, she was old
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: and ugly, she was something.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: Don't do that when I'm taking a break, get all
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: over the microphone.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: Okay, let's see. There's not not a whole lot here.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: An atomic mishap occurs at a nuclear generating plant at
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: your Noble in the Ukraine. Oh yeah, that's huge, causing
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: the evacuation of fifteen thousand residents of the area.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: Could you not remember think that that was a big deal?
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: Did I run it and I found it? I don't
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: like to talk about nuclear because I'm always because you
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: want to call it nuclear like W. That's what I'm
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: afraid that I'll say it like W and then people
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: will be like, oh, look, she's a fool, just like W. Anyways,
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: there's no going no going back to Chernobyl. No, No,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: that's it's like yeah, yeah, gun is done. So yeah.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: So I don't have a lot there, but I mean
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: the few things that I did mention they were pretty big.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: They were, Yeah, they were they were real big happenings
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: there in nineteen eighty six.
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: Okay, so let's move to sports. Sports winners.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I can tell you who all won the sports.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: You just give me this. You just give me the sport,
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: and I'll tell you. Baseball baseball, the New York Mets
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: beat the Boston Red Sox four games to three, made
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: famous by the game six error by Bill Buckner when
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: the ball went between his legs, and the Mets came
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: back and beat them. Although most people remember Bill Buckner
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: losing the game for them, but the fact was the
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: Mets had already tied that game before he made the air,
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: so it's not like they were going to win if
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: he fielded that ball.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: Folks, there are no notes in front of him. He
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: does not have his phone, he does none have his laptop.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: He is sitting at an empty desk. I have no
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: idea where that just came from.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: Well, I can promise you, Like any guy my age,
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: it was like sports remembers that. Okay, football football, So
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: nineteen eighty six, so that was the year of the Giants.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: So the Giants beat the Redskins in the NFC championship game,
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: and if I'm not mistaken, they shut them out. And
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: then the Broncos beat the Cleveland Browns in overtime. I
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: think it was twenty three to twenty. Yes on a game.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: Because that game is known as the Drive because John
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: Elway got the ball back on like his own two
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: yard line or eight yard line or something like that,
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: and they were down seven and he drove them down
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: at the end of the game to score touchdown. Now,
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: that happens all the time nowadays, but back then it
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: didn't hardly ever happen. So it's known as the Drive,
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: and it made John Lway famous. And then they kicked
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: the field going overtime and they won, and then they
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: went to the Super Bowl and they got blown up
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: by the Giants thirty nine to twenty, where Phil Simms
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: was named MVP and had like one of the greatest
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: Super Bowl games for a quarterback ever. I believe he
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: went like twenty two of twenty five or something crazy
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: like that. Okay, basketball, basketball eighty six, the Lakers would
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: have beaten the Celtics, so if you're talking the Eastern
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: Conference and Western Conference champions, oh no, no, eighty six
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: though they wouldn't the Did I see the Lakers beat
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: the Celtics? Yes, no, I'm totally wrong, So eighty six
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: was actually an anomaly. The Lakers lost to the Houston
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: Rockets in the Western Conference finals and the Celtics, I
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: don't know who they beat, maybe the Bucks in the
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: Eastern Conference Finals, I'm not sure. But then the Celtics
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: beat the Houston Rockets four games to two in the
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: eighty six NBA Finals.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: Okay, did you keep up with hockey?
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: Uh?
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: Eighty six? So in eighty six hockey was just kind
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: of coming into being. Yes, so the I believe the
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: Montreal Canadians beat the Calgary Flames in the Stanley Cup finals.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: So it says so yes, But it says here it's
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: the Calgary Flyers.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: No, that's that's wrong. It's the Flame that's a typo.
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: It's the Philadelphia Flyers and the Calgary Flames because that's
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: where remember the old Atlanta Flames. Yeah, well that's where
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: they moved to Calgary.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: Oh wow, So I'm gonna call Norm and tell him
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: he's got a type I got typo in there yet? Okay, okay,
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: So let's talk about some music highlights of nineteen eighty six.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: Anything come to your mind before I jump in here?
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: Uh? Well, George Michael, you know, broke up with Wayam
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: or Hyam broke up. But George Michael became a solo artist.
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: Let's see eighty six. That's what friends are for. I
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: think was the number one song of the year that
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: year by Dion Warwick and Friends. I mean, that was
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: a good year for music.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: But okay, so here I got a few things for you. Ready.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: So Belinda Carlyle leaves the Go Gos. Oh yeah, and
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: she started her solo career. Next stop is Curious George. Yes, yes,
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: she started her solo career. I believe her first hit
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: was mad About You, which is probably my favorite Belinda
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: Carlyle song. On Saturday, May tenth, Tommy Lee A Montley
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: Crue marries actress Heather Locklin.
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: I remember that.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: Well, Hands Across America takes place on Sunday, May twenty fifth.
• 27:48

• 27:57
  Speaker 1: link hands to raise money for the hungry and the
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: home in the US.

• 28:08
  Speaker 2: nine hundred and ninety three plus the seven butlers that

• 28:19
  Speaker 1: don't remember doing Hands across America.
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: You did not do it well because you're not across America,
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: like I think it was, going from like Washington, DC
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: to California. There's no way it would have made it
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: down south.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: No, No, probably wouldn't have se But I.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: Lived like smack dab right in the middle of the country.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: So yeah, but they were the Goldbergs were like Pennsylvania.
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: I don't know how they did it, you know, I
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: don't know.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: Okay. CDs began gaining a popularity, sales rise one hundred
• 28:46

• 29:22
  Speaker 2: once from like BMG or Columbia House.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, did you pay for them or did you just
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: take them and never pay? No?
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: I pay. I paid the penny for them. You pay
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: a penny for the five. I paid a penny for them.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, what about the others?
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: I think I ended up paying for something that I
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: didn't want because I forgot to send that card back then.
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: But I don't remember if I paid for the rest

• 48:10
  Speaker 1: Mm hmmmmm, but I also wanted Tom Cruise. I was
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: very confused, as what did you think about five foot
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: four guys playing volleyball on the beach and their jeans?
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: I mean, little Lenz felt some things should never felt before.
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: But it's not realistic, like they should have been six
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: foot four guys, but they weren't. They were fine.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: They were five foot four because they're they did movies.
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: They're you know, tall guys aren't really in movies very often. Well,
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: and when they are, they come across as chunky.
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: Tall guys come across.
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: He comes across his chunky. He's not. He's just a
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: tall guy.
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: When he was thin, he wasn't. He wasn't chunky. He's
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: he has gained a little bit of pounds. I mean,
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: we all do getting older. But if you see him
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: in swingers like he's tall and he's a he's a
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: rail well whatever. Any more movies over there?
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: Ummmm, Peggy Sue got married?
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: Don't you have the top ten songs over there? I
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: feel like you skipped the top ten Songs of the Year.

  Speaker 1: Don't take the book and take a look, because I mean,
• 49:14

• 49:16
  Speaker 1: see for themselves.
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: Top Singles of nineteen eighty six, Top Albums of nineteen
• 49:22
