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 105: 1984 Vs. Today: Top 5 Hit Songs
Will and Kat are joined by guest host Jon (host of GenXGrownUp podcast). They discuss current 1980s news including the fued between two legendary rockers and a change to a classic Star Wars ship. Then, the trio discusses each of the Top 5 songs from the week ending September 4, 1984. And the group determines how long they can endure each of the current Top 5 songs. Will the any of the contemporary songs last 30 seconds without being buzzed by the hosts? Will any of the new songs best its analogue from 1984?
