The Home of the Future in the Past | A Swayze, Stallone and Travolta bromance | A Kate Bush song does Stranger Things

Loading player...
It makes sense that a 1980's Jeff Bezos would have had Alexa somewhere in his mind, but would he have extended his thinking to her voice? We find an eery similarity in the home of the future.
We close the book on the lesser 80s sibling running gag (Who said ''finally''?) and revisit the Nintendo Power Glove, before taking a look at Top Gun's Maverick beach volleyball scene.
Stranger Things Season 4 did for Kate Bush what Season 3 did for Limahl - so Paulo and Dori wonder if "Pass the Dutchie'' is about to reach 1 billion streams.
Part 1: The Home of the Future and The New Delorean.
Part 2: Movie Recommendations.
Part 3: Top Gun's Volley Ball scene.
Part 4: Kate Bush.

Death's Near-Chuck Norris Experience

We’re breaking format like Chuck Norris broke teeth, as we take a moment to remember the man who had his own line of “Action Jeans.” The perfect jeans for karate kick slap action. With 13 movies in the 80s alone and a projected on-screen body count of over 400, Chuck…

Twice as Nice Vanilla Ice | CDogg for hire | Whose the Boss, Now?

Vanilla Ice is back in the charts and he just wants to dance — and for a podcast that can’t play music, there sure is a lot of singing. We discover the original He-Man theme song, and somehow it leads us directly to Michael Jackson and E.T. How much is…
