Jason Bateman may hate the '80s | How is Rob Lowe not cancelled? | Going Ape! | Living on a Stranger Thing

--:--

Jason Bateman's hair is more '80s now than it was in the '80s and it bothers Dori.

We wonder how Rob Lowe didn't get cancelled, remind ourselves of the pain of a blown TV tube, and Paulo watched a movie where Danny DeVito didn't have the worst comb over.

George Michael's Sydney mansion has Paulo revealing his bedroom attire, and Millie Bobby Brown's engagement to Jon Bon Jovi's son gives your favourite '80s duo a chance to roll out a bazillion puns.

Everything we discuss in this show can be found on @That80sShowSA on Facebook. This show originally plays out with music that we have to remove from the podcast - here are the songs we spoke about and played:

Abracadabra - Steve Miller Band
Things can only get better - Howard Jones
