Put down the hairdryer | An Italo-Disco-mentary | Retrotastic Pseudo-Nostalgia

--:--

She-Hulk 2022 has memes, GIFS and an emoji.
She-Hulk of the 80s had Brigitte Nielsen. We still prefer Lou Ferrigno in a wig.
Plus Paulo discovers an Italo-Disco documentary and will be unavailable for an hour.
We reroute from the 80s to discuss Trainwreck: Woodstock '99... but get it back into the decade we love with Bette Midler, Lily Tomlin, Al Bundy and all the stories from Polk High.
Everything we discuss in this show can be found on @That80sShowSA on Facebook. WE'RE NOW ON INSTAGRAM @That_80sshow
This podcast originally plays as a radio show with music - here are the songs we spoke about and played:
I should be so lucky - Kylie Minogue.
Higher Love - Steve Winwood.

NO J Simpson | Science says music was better in the 80s | Let down by Ozzy Osbourne

We look back at OJ Simpson's 80s 'movie' career. He could have been the Terminator but instead... well, that joke is even beneath us. Science says 80s music was better, Dori misses the Vietnam War and Paulo was tricked by Condorman. We wonder if This is Spinal Tap 2 will…

Now that's what I don't call music | A mouse walks into a bar. Everyone knows his name.

Paulo and Dori will not let a lack of musical ability stop them from rising up the 80s charts as AI and Dolph Lundgren's nipples, come to the rescue. We'd only buy a Thundercats Lego playset if they fully leaned into 'Thundercats Leg-ho', and Mickey Mouse shows up in the…

Drink my Delorean Dust | T is for the song Mr T sang for his mom | Smut with Brut

Dori tasted a drink from the 80s and was let down, while Paulo wants an 80s inspired beer - even if it is cotton candy flavoured. Mr T. Loves his Momma, doesn't love spelling. Our movie recommendations ask what happened to the kid from ET and imagine what it's like…

Dori The Fan Girl | The most '80s man who never existed | Stand up for Madonna

Dori and Paulo were duped by A.I. until they started counting the fingers. Art is in the eye of the beholder, especially when it's a recreation of a video store. Which 80s Lego set would you buy? A Miami Vice one? Golden Girls or Who's The Boss? Or maybe you…
