1980s Now is a weekly examination of the importance of 80s pop culture and its continued influence today. We demonstrate that nostalgia alone doesn’t account for the contemporary fascination with our favorite decade. Instead, we share personal experiences and interview experts--including icons from 80s music, movies and TV--to demonstrate the “era of greed” bore the greatest moments in movies, music, television and sports. The show is equally entertaining and informative. (80s is aka '80s.)

episode 201: Outcastes: Will's 1980s Novel
On this special episode, Will introduces us to some of the themes that are covered in his 1980s novel and will be topics for future podcast episodes. The novel, which is called "Outcastes," follows a teenage Indian immigrant in the early 1980s, who uses hip-hop to cope with the loss of his mother.
Next week, the trio returns to discuss some of the controversial songs from the 1980s.
