is a gentleman that we cannot do the
58
00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:56.800
show without because he is referred to

also been known as the Man the
Month, and a ledge and in his
60
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:04.639
very own mind, but here at
Back to the eighties radio we just call

him the chang uh Tascano. It's
good to see you, It's good to
62
00:05:10.519 --> 00:05:13.800
talk to you. Hello, all
our lovely listeners, hear it? Back
63
00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:18.720
to the eighties. I was just
on another expedition looking for clues to see
64
00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:25.800
what happened to Sasquatch. I did
find some rare droppings. For those of
65
00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:29.759
you who don't know, Chang does
live in the midst of the land of
66
00:05:29.879 --> 00:05:31.360
the Yetty. So, yeah,
you know what it could have been.
67
00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:34.279
It could have been Bigfoot? Do
you never know what it is? I'm
68
00:05:34.319 --> 00:05:41.360
telling you, Ever, since that
one day that I seen that hairy tweaker
69
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:48.639
run across the highway naked, I
knew that the YETI was not far from
70
00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:51.879
that individual's blood light. I've seen
it with my own eyes. Well,
71
00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:56.079
we want to welcome everybody listening to
once again, this is back to the
72
00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:59.079
eighties radio show. Today. We
want to bring a lot of smiles to
73
00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:03.199
people's faces because there's a lot of
crap going down that's mentally taking me back
74
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:06.560
to a part of the eighties where
we were worried about World War three.
75
00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:12.199
Remember that time, Bro Reagan had
gotten us pretty close to that red Button.
76
00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:17.480
I did no such thing. How
dare you say that I was about
77
00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:23.839
to be any dealt red Button?
The only red button I was ever knew
78
00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:27.720
was a fellow actor, Red Buttons. Hey, back to the eighties fans.
79
00:06:28.079 --> 00:06:30.680
Do you love true crime podcasts but
are sick and tired of listening to
80
00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:35.079
the same cases over and over and
over again. I mean, seriously,
81
00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:39.800
how many times can you listen to
a story about Ted Bondeer or the Golden
82
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:43.920
State Killer. If I have to
hear one more podcast about John Wayne Gacy,
83
00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:46.720
I'm gonna dress up as a clown
and shoot myself. Now. If
84
00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:50.040
you feel the way I do,
then you have to listen to Modem Mischief.
85
00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:56.040
Modum Mischief is a true cybercrime podcast. They tell stories about the world's
86
00:06:56.079 --> 00:07:00.639
most notorious hackers and the lives affected
by them. You're going to hear stories
87
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:03.279
about the dark Web and what goes
on down there. And since you love
88
00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:08.160
the eighties, of course, this
week's show is about the teenage hacker gang,
89
00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:12.199
the four one fours. It's like
war games, but in real life.
90
00:07:12.800 --> 00:07:16.560
That's Modem Mischief. Wherever you get
your podcasts, don't go away.
91
00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:21.079
When we come back, we're gonna
be talking about what do the eighties mean
92
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:29.480
to you? You're listening to Back
to the eighties? Eight some of you
93
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:32.319
remember the eighties five? Right?
Well, it lives loud and proud.
94
00:07:32.680 --> 00:07:42.800
On back to the eighties with my
pals to Scotto and Chay. If you
95
00:07:42.920 --> 00:07:47.920
can't wear a spandex jumpsuit, what
can you do? This to the eighties
96
00:07:50.680 --> 00:07:57.519
of the infamous, to Scutin Chay. Here and tonight we are talking about
97
00:07:57.759 --> 00:08:03.720
something that is dear to all our
hearts. And the question that Toscano and
98
00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:11.399
I are posing is what did the
nineteen eighties mean to you? Whether it
99
00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:20.560
be fun, sad, adventurous,
a time of change or a time of
100
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:24.160
reckoning. What did the eighties do
for you? Now? Tscanno, I
101
00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:31.920
know we've had dozens, dozens of
comments when you put this out on our
102
00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:37.559
page, and the thing that I
did notice that there were so many different
103
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:45.919
answers and replies. Some people speak
of it as a sad time, some
104
00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:50.000
speak of it as a great time
people some people loved it just for the
105
00:08:50.159 --> 00:08:56.440
movies, the music, the ambiance, and the fashion. So before we
106
00:08:56.519 --> 00:09:00.120
get into some of our listeners,
Toscano, let me ask you, what
107
00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:07.320
did the nineteen eighties mean to you? Oh man, that question is deep
108
00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:11.360
for me because you know, I
started thinking about that today and I was
109
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:15.200
and I knew the question was coming. I knew you were going to ask
110
00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:18.840
me that. There's lots of things
that go through my mind of what that
111
00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:22.519
era meant to me. But I
think if I were just to boil it
112
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:28.440
down to one word, if that's
possible, or at least a phrase,
113
00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:35.960
I would I would probably say,
freedom and no worries. Now, no
114
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:41.240
worries in the sense, you know, everybody worries. Our parents worried,
115
00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:45.279
and if you were a young parent
back then you worried. You worried for
116
00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:50.080
different reasons. But I was a
teen back then, so teens, especially
117
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:58.919
back then, what worried did usually
did teens have not many It was going
118
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:03.360
out with your friends, hanging out
outside every single day. Some people went
119
00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:07.200
skating with their friends. It was
Saturday morning. You know, I'm talking
120
00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:11.240
about real early in the eighties,
let's say eighty three or eighty four,
121
00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:15.840
when you were in high school.
A lot of us were eating waffles,
122
00:10:15.960 --> 00:10:18.720
you know, our Saturday morning cartoons. There was a lot of But for
123
00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:22.519
me, I want to say,
it was freedom, freedom, and I
124
00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:26.440
didn't have a worry in the world
at times. At least that's what it
125
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:30.000
seemed like in certain times. But
the freedom that you felt back then,
126
00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:33.759
I don't know. Maybe it's one
of those things that now, looking at
127
00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:37.799
it in retrospect, we think we
had that freedom, but there really wasn't
128
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:43.399
as much in a sense, you
know what, I feel that nowadays everybody's
129
00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:50.080
suffocated, suffocated by social you know
what I mean by social media. Sometimes
130
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:54.159
I literally feel suffocated by all the
technology. By social media. Yeah.
131
00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:58.279
Of course, it's brought convenience to
our doorstep. It's brought a lot of
132
00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:03.799
ease, but it's also brought a
lot of tension, a lot of worry,
133
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:05.960
a lot of problems, things that
we didn't have before. We didn't
134
00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:09.759
have to worry about that stuff.
So I would say that, what about
135
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:15.679
you? Very good word now before
I tell you what the eighties meant to
136
00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:20.480
the chain here, you spoke of
freedom, and that's a great word to
137
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:24.840
use, because back in the eighties
we all did feel a little bit more
138
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:28.679
free. Things did seem a little
bit more carefree because of our ages,
139
00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:37.080
of course, but you spoke about
being a kid watching cartoons. You probably
140
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:39.080
used to watch He Man correct.
Oh, yeah, He Man and g
141
00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:43.480
I Joe those are my big cartoons, right, So I can imagine the
142
00:11:43.639 --> 00:11:48.559
freedom you speak of was like you
felt just so free and great to where
143
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:54.440
your underwear dressed up like he Man, and the privacy of your own home
144
00:11:54.519 --> 00:11:58.200
and act out the cartoon. I
mean, what other type of freedom is
145
00:11:58.279 --> 00:12:07.320
that for a young Tusconnel boy to
crank onto television and watch hem Heman?
146
00:12:07.559 --> 00:12:13.320
Yeah, as he gets into his
tidy whities and his Heman outfit and stands
147
00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:18.080
at the front. I don't all
right, all right now, I don't
148
00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:20.200
think See I didn't wear my he
Man underwear. I didn't have that.
149
00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:24.919
I did have under ruth and I
was Superman like in nineteen eighty or eighty
150
00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:28.360
one or something like that. You
gotta remember I was in high school in
151
00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:31.919
the eighties, of course, but
I didn't go to high school until um,
152
00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:37.120
like mid high school, like eighty
seven. So I was my last
153
00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:41.200
year as a junior. Hire was
eighty six. Yeah. No, when
154
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:45.360
you were playing with toys, I
was playing with girls, my friend.
155
00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:52.480
I know. I've had my experiences
since I was like ten. So yeah,
156
00:12:52.519 --> 00:12:54.039
both See, you were a dirty
little boy. You knew the church.
157
00:12:54.639 --> 00:13:01.120
You were a bad boy. I
cannot tell a lot. But how
158
00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:03.960
about you, man, how you
bet you there was a lot of spankings
159
00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:07.080
going on, but no one was
spanking you, you dirty little boy.
160
00:13:07.279 --> 00:13:09.879
I can tell you that could tell
you that my first I can tell you.
161
00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:13.480
Don't tell nobody. I know.
The listeners they can't hear us.
162
00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:18.879
No, the listeners can't hear us. Now of course we're yeah, we're
163
00:13:18.200 --> 00:13:22.320
literally using the Maxwell Smart Cone of
Silence. All right, so check this
164
00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:26.799
out. Nobody knows I'm gonna tell
you this. You know, eighties fans,
165
00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:31.440
cover your ears or take your headphones
off or whatever. Don't just don't
166
00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:37.600
listen to this. I've been playing
the bridge, Yeah, I've been.
167
00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:45.159
Stop. I've been playing tongue twisters
with chicks since I was five years old.
168
00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:48.879
Literally, Wow, that was my
first my first tongue twister, I
169
00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:52.799
was five years old. Yeah,
really, rubber baby bumpy, I don't
170
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:54.399
I can't even do it now.
That's why I wasn't that good. Yeah,
171
00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:58.559
let's just say that. Yeah.
Now, I've been playing tongue twisters
172
00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:01.279
with with chicks since I was fine
and then obviously, Yeah, so I
173
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:09.080
started very young. That explains why
you're so good on the microphone and the
174
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:16.399
harmonica. Yeah, I am on
a drug. It's called char sheen um
175
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:20.639
and uh it's not available because if
you try it once, you will die.
176
00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:22.440
Your face will melt off and you're
trall him all weep over your exploded
177
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:30.840
body. Um. Oh man.
And now now now what about you?
178
00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:35.480
Way many of you and of course
you my partner, know a lot of
179
00:14:35.600 --> 00:14:39.679
my background in the eighties. But
I will have to say this. I'm
180
00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:43.519
going to say one word, then
I will explain why I said that word,
181
00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:56.399
and c wow, what a shocked
Sorry. You know what, Yes,
182
00:14:56.679 --> 00:14:58.080
if I was a criminal in the
eighties, I would have stolen your
183
00:14:58.120 --> 00:15:01.840
TV, so you wouldn't have gotten
in your he man, get up.
184
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:03.960
You've been able to stand on the
couch and claim the living room is your
185
00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:07.200
kingdom. But I broke into my
own home and I stole stuff, So
186
00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:13.320
it's okay. What kind of breaks
it into his own house? It steals
187
00:15:13.399 --> 00:15:20.960
it out. Anyway, we digress. What did the eighties meet to you?
188
00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:28.360
The nineteen eighties to me is family. And here is exactly why these
189
00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:35.200
ingredients are of the word family.
It's kind of like family was a little
190
00:15:35.279 --> 00:15:39.600
soup, and here's the ingredients.
Now, in the very early eighties,
191
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:46.399
nineteen eighty one, at nineteen eighty
I entered high school. And I left
192
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:50.879
high school where I rather nineteen seventy
nine. Sorry, and I left in
193
00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:58.000
eighty three. Now, during that
time, family had had a lot of
194
00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:03.320
problems within my family, a lot
of shoes, you know. But then
195
00:16:03.440 --> 00:16:07.440
also my friends, my neighbors,
my homies, my buddies, that I
196
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:12.600
grew up with. I will always
call them family because during that time in
197
00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:17.159
the eighties when we were all in
high school, a lot of us were
198
00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:22.840
going through the same thing divorce,
parents, alcoholism, older siblings who didn't
199
00:16:22.879 --> 00:16:27.399
really have enough time for us,
so you know what I mean. And
200
00:16:27.799 --> 00:16:32.399
a lot of us didn't come from
money, so we had the struggle of
201
00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:34.480
life. We grew up in the
same neighborhood, the same environment, the
202
00:16:34.639 --> 00:16:41.679
same type of a family structure.
So these guys became family later in the
203
00:16:41.879 --> 00:16:45.399
eighties. As you know, I
had my first child in nineteen eighty seven.
204
00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:52.639
Then I met Missus Chang and then
she had her too. We became
205
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:56.320
kind of like a Brady Bunch Latin
style. I had one, she had
206
00:16:56.360 --> 00:17:00.000
to, then we had the baby. So to me, the eighties is
207
00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:06.480
always family. It reminds me of
the bad times within my own bloodline.
208
00:17:06.480 --> 00:17:11.799
It reminds me of the good times
that I shared with my dad and my
209
00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:15.319
sister and my brother law going to
Ram games, Dodger games, and then
210
00:17:15.680 --> 00:17:21.599
the later eighties is always a smile
because that was my time with my own
211
00:17:21.759 --> 00:17:26.559
family, with me and Missus Chang
and our four kids. So the eighties
212
00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:30.079
to me, is always going to
make me smile more than it makes me
213
00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:34.799
cry, and that is family.
Did you come from a divorced at home.
214
00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:41.440
Yeah, my parents divorced when I
was fifteen. My dad left home
215
00:17:41.920 --> 00:17:45.440
or when I was about fifteen years
old, and that same year they divorced,
216
00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:52.880
and you know, my mom my
dad was gone from that time on.
217
00:17:52.519 --> 00:17:55.759
A couple of years, me and
my dad didn't talk. You know,
218
00:17:55.960 --> 00:18:00.799
some crap got really heavy. So
the eighties, it was a crazy
219
00:18:00.920 --> 00:18:06.680
time. I was becoming a teenager
and soon to be a man, and
220
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:11.440
all hell broke loose during the eighties. But I did have some very great
221
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:14.759
times too, you know, like
I mentioned, a lot of sporting events.
222
00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:18.839
My dad enriched me and my older
sister with the Los Angeles Rams of
223
00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:22.039
course, and the LA Dodgers.
You know, I grew up going to
224
00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:26.400
Dodger Laker Ram games. So the
eighties, even though my parents had divorced,
225
00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:30.960
I'd say probably the mid eighties,
when my dad got his act together
226
00:18:32.039 --> 00:18:36.319
again, we started going back to
the games, so that you know what
227
00:18:36.440 --> 00:18:38.960
I mean. The eighties is always
that kind of a family bond, the
228
00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:42.599
bad and the good, but salt
family. You know. You know,
229
00:18:42.960 --> 00:18:47.240
my parents got divorced in nineteen eighty
four, so I was twelve years old.
230
00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:51.079
Okay, that is it may sound
bad if I say it this way,
231
00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:52.920
I don't know how it's gonna come
across. And you know, I
232
00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:57.440
grew up in an only child,
so I had that not going for me.
233
00:18:57.799 --> 00:19:00.720
First of all, I didn't have
any brothers or sisters to lean on.
234
00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:03.400
Yeah. I had cousins that I
hung out and we grew up together,
235
00:19:03.519 --> 00:19:06.759
but it's not it's never going to
be the same as having a brother
236
00:19:06.839 --> 00:19:11.160
or sister. And when my parents
got a divorce, I actually had a
237
00:19:11.720 --> 00:19:15.279
better time being by myself. I
was, and by myself I mean we
238
00:19:15.400 --> 00:19:18.640
just my friends, hanging out with
my friends, and I never had too
239
00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:22.519
many friends. I had a lot
of acquaintances. We went out to parties
240
00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:26.359
and things like that. But this
was after when I started getting you know,
241
00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:29.160
when I got into high school.
But when my parents got a divorce,
242
00:19:29.240 --> 00:19:32.680
I had more fun. And part
of that was, of course,
243
00:19:32.759 --> 00:19:34.680
you know, my parents used to
argue so much that I was glad when
244
00:19:34.720 --> 00:19:40.119
it was over, and just too
much trauma going on. But so so
245
00:19:40.559 --> 00:19:44.079
family for you. If you just

275
00:25:07.279 --> 00:25:11.559
to the eighties. Right you're at
k it's not a two point vibe,
276
00:25:11.680 --> 00:25:17.240
and you were banging right here with
Toscano A jang that is Charlonnage a great
277
00:25:17.319 --> 00:25:19.880
tune. To Scannell, what did
you think of that track? You know,
278
00:25:21.079 --> 00:25:25.599
I've told you this before. I
love ballads and this song. I
279
00:25:25.759 --> 00:25:27.519
don't want to lie. Hey man, there's something wrong with life. I
280
00:25:27.640 --> 00:25:32.359
like, I've told you this many
times. I love ballads. I love
281
00:25:32.640 --> 00:25:37.440
all kinds of music, and that's
no lie, unlike other people on the
282
00:25:37.559 --> 00:25:42.319
show that are just nothing bad haters. You know, I love me a
283
00:25:42.400 --> 00:25:48.920
good ballad, just like I enjoy
stubbing my toe, banging my head,
284
00:25:48.440 --> 00:25:55.240
tripping and falling having a hangover.
Yeah, that's about how much I enjoy
285
00:25:55.359 --> 00:25:56.880
the ballad. I want you guys
to tune in if you liked the song,
286
00:25:57.519 --> 00:26:03.599
tune in because March, in the
second week of March, we're going
287
00:26:03.680 --> 00:26:07.519
to have Scott Oliver from Charlotte coming
on the show with us and talking about
288
00:26:08.039 --> 00:26:12.640
eighties music and things like that,
and now this song. It wasn't released
289
00:26:12.720 --> 00:26:18.640
until two thousand and nine, but
they are eighties songs. Unfortunately, for
290
00:26:18.799 --> 00:26:23.839
whatever the reason, they had recorded
them, but it wasn't released until two
291
00:26:23.880 --> 00:26:29.319
thousand and nine. So I have
a question I want to run by you.
292
00:26:29.400 --> 00:26:32.880
I was going to ask them if
they got their hair done at long
293
00:26:33.000 --> 00:26:38.160
Hair Rocks or hair pirates back into
the eighties because the Chang here went to
294
00:26:38.359 --> 00:26:45.000
both establishments. Yes, I did, really now was this. Did they
295
00:26:45.119 --> 00:26:49.480
use Aquanette super strength the pink bottle, Well, they probably did use that
296
00:26:49.640 --> 00:26:56.880
on other individuals, but the Chang
was not into the aquandet or the pretty
297
00:26:56.960 --> 00:27:00.880
hair. I didn't have the big
hair. I just had the long hair,
298
00:27:02.079 --> 00:27:04.559
and I wanted to make sure that
my hair was like me, my
299
00:27:04.759 --> 00:27:10.680
friend, long and strong, no
split in. So for those of you
300
00:27:11.119 --> 00:27:15.559
who have never seen the Chang before, you can picture Chang's hair like Axel
301
00:27:15.720 --> 00:27:21.519
Rose back in the nineteen eighty eight
album Appetite for Destruction. That's how your
302
00:27:21.559 --> 00:27:25.240
hair was. Well, it wasn't
red, more like Rapunzel. So whenever
303
00:27:25.359 --> 00:27:27.559
I you know, I read no, I mean the flat, you know,
304
00:27:27.640 --> 00:27:30.799
more like the flat, and then
you use the probably a lot of
305
00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:36.480
Bandama's back. Then, deep down
inside, I know Chang, you wanted
306
00:27:36.519 --> 00:27:38.599
to look like Axel. No,
Axel wanted to look like me. And
307
00:27:38.759 --> 00:27:42.279
I think he caught my I think
I caught his eye when he threw that
308
00:27:42.400 --> 00:27:48.240
cigarette at my white chuck Son Sunset
Boulevard in nineteen eighty seven. You're still
309
00:27:48.319 --> 00:27:51.680
bitter. I want you to do. So they'll want you to tuck straight
310
00:27:51.720 --> 00:27:56.240
into the microphone and tell Axel how
sorry you are for wanting to kick his
311
00:27:56.319 --> 00:28:00.599
butt that day. Now, Ax, I'll call him Ax because we're friends.
312
00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:03.400
So I want to tell you,
I really enjoy all your music.
313
00:28:03.000 --> 00:28:07.559
I didn't care for your bad attitude
during some of the concerts and your fits
314
00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:11.799
and your hissy fits. I really
didn't appreciate the time that you looked at
315
00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:18.039
me and throw a lit cigarette at
my brand new white Chuck Taylor's on Sunset
316
00:28:18.079 --> 00:28:23.160
Boulevard. You know, I don't
I really don't like that you didn't even
317
00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:30.119
apologize, and that you're probably as
tall as my hip back there, and
318
00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:33.319
I'm sure do you guys just call
it a day and just let by gones
319
00:28:33.359 --> 00:28:36.240
be by. Ax. I'm gonna
tell you what, Axel, I'm gonna
320
00:28:36.319 --> 00:28:38.599
let it, let it go now, for all these years, I'm not
321
00:28:38.680 --> 00:28:41.759
going to call you a whole rose
anymore. I'm just gonna call you,
322
00:28:42.200 --> 00:28:47.119
Hey, there's that guy. That's
it. There's that guy. There's my
323
00:28:47.200 --> 00:28:49.599
apology. That's my apology. So
you're gonna get a all right if you
324
00:28:49.640 --> 00:28:52.440
just joined us here back to the
eighties, we are talking about what the
325
00:28:52.599 --> 00:28:57.160
eighties meant and mean still to this
day to us. There was a lot
326
00:28:57.200 --> 00:29:00.720
of people who commented, and I
wanted to read some of their names and
327
00:29:00.839 --> 00:29:03.640
along with their answers. But you
know, I do want to give a
328
00:29:03.759 --> 00:29:07.799
special shout out before we do that
to all the people from Ukraine. We
329
00:29:08.119 --> 00:29:12.240
all know what's going on. They
must just be living in fear right now
330
00:29:12.400 --> 00:29:17.119
and here and back to the eighties. Our main goal is to crack a
331
00:29:17.240 --> 00:29:19.000
smile in your face and in your
heart. And if we could do that,
332
00:29:19.160 --> 00:29:22.680
we've accomplished our goal. You know, A big shout out to you
333
00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:32.319
guys now. Kimberly Bronk Peltier or
a Pelletier said they were unforgettable memories where
334
00:29:32.400 --> 00:29:37.160
kids could be kids. Kids today, unfortunately, are expected to be older
335
00:29:37.240 --> 00:29:41.000
than they are in school. In
life. They don't play outside or play
336
00:29:41.079 --> 00:29:44.799
with toys, and she says that
when her daughter turned ten, she wanted
337
00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:48.839
to get rid of her toys.
When she asked her why, she said,
338
00:29:48.920 --> 00:29:52.960
nobody plays with toys in my grade. Growing up in the eighties,
339
00:29:52.440 --> 00:29:56.400
she says, I didn't have to
worry about any of that. I was
340
00:29:56.480 --> 00:30:00.519
playing games with toys well into her
teens. She said, my parents weren't
341
00:30:00.519 --> 00:30:06.400
afraid to turn the TV on at
ten in the morning and having widely inappropriate
342
00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:10.680
programming on TV. There is no
family TV to watch anymore. She says
343
00:30:10.720 --> 00:30:15.240
she remembers watching TV together as a
family and those are some of the best
344
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:19.119
memories of her life. It's such
such a different world we live in now,
345
00:30:19.640 --> 00:30:22.319
Kimberly, A big shout out to
you, and you're absolutely right.
346
00:30:22.359 --> 00:30:27.440
And there goes that word that you
mentioned family, How important, how important
347
00:30:27.599 --> 00:30:32.599
we had it back then with family. We're missing that essence nowadays to a
348
00:30:32.680 --> 00:30:37.440
certain degree. Some households still hold
onto it, but in a sense,
349
00:30:37.400 --> 00:30:44.119
I'd say maybe forty percent of society
has lost that. Shanna Reid says,
350
00:30:44.559 --> 00:30:49.799
my childhood going skating with friends,
Saturday mornings at Grandma's waffles, watching the
351
00:30:49.960 --> 00:30:55.400
Smurfs, and her favorite walkman,
Tom Patrick. Ryan said, been in
352
00:30:55.480 --> 00:31:00.079
college and working at college radio station, constantly surrounded by eighties music. Way
353
00:31:00.160 --> 00:31:03.640
to Go, Tom, Where to
Go? My brother James Sorrentino said,
354
00:31:03.720 --> 00:31:07.519
one of the greatest decades to grow
up in, from music to clothes.
355
00:31:07.720 --> 00:31:12.519
And let's not forget about the hair
chang. Oh, let's not forget about
356
00:31:12.559 --> 00:31:17.200
the hair. The eighties is when
you think of the eighties, you think
357
00:31:17.240 --> 00:31:19.200
of the fashion, you think of
the hair, and you think of the
358
00:31:19.480 --> 00:31:26.039
music, and all of that can
be transpired onto TV. Look how many
359
00:31:26.079 --> 00:31:32.079
TV shows grabbed that beat in rand
was it? TV was everywhere? You
360
00:31:32.200 --> 00:31:37.599
know. I really liked a lot
of not all, a lot of the
361
00:31:37.759 --> 00:31:41.599
hairstyles that the girls had back then
when they kept it within reason, because
362
00:31:41.680 --> 00:31:45.839
then you got some that the hair
was so big because their hair's longer,
363
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:48.480
right, so that long hair,
they can poof it up as big as
364
00:31:48.480 --> 00:31:52.920
they want, so, but within
reason. A lot of that was nice,
365
00:31:52.000 --> 00:31:56.279
you know, feathered. And I
do notice that they used to take
366
00:31:56.319 --> 00:32:00.680
care of themselves so much. TV
started all those hairs, my brother,
367
00:32:00.799 --> 00:32:05.799
you got that right. Michael James
Wyatt Reynolds says the best Halloween's best Christmas
368
00:32:05.960 --> 00:32:09.839
is, best music, best movies, the greatest decade of the twentieth century.
369
00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:15.759
Christina Kreshan says, bright colors,
big hair, great music, innocence
370
00:32:16.000 --> 00:32:22.359
and youth. And we got tons
of those. But I want to,
371
00:32:23.319 --> 00:32:28.119
yeah, yep now when I've jumped
over to one of them in particular,
372
00:32:28.200 --> 00:32:30.559
and that's Rob Cookenaer. We gave
him a special shout out. In the
373
00:32:30.599 --> 00:32:36.440
beginning of the show, he said, it's when technology and personal entertainment were
374
00:32:36.599 --> 00:32:40.680
high tech enough for us to enjoy, but not so far along that it
375
00:32:40.839 --> 00:32:45.960
just became a device. He says, I mean Sony Walkman's Swatch, watches,
376
00:32:46.000 --> 00:32:52.519
Atari's Arcade games, and even home
TVs and stereos worked just fine and
377
00:32:52.680 --> 00:32:58.839
still had personality even in their bulkiness
and low tech buttons or dials. Those
378
00:32:58.960 --> 00:33:01.160
all gave them a look can feel
that we can remember as a part of
379
00:33:01.240 --> 00:33:07.839
our Friday night of inserting cassette tapes
holding the speaker to our home phone too,
380
00:33:07.039 --> 00:33:12.160
so our friends remember this, holding
the home phone next to the speakers
381
00:33:12.160 --> 00:33:15.359
so our friends could hear a song
that we'd you know, we would lay
382
00:33:15.359 --> 00:33:17.559
on the floor sometimes, well yeah, sometimes I would do that. Or
383
00:33:17.680 --> 00:33:23.400
sometimes I would just take the ghetto
blaster and take it to my friend's house
384
00:33:23.440 --> 00:33:28.119
and play my mixtapes or what have
you, and putting the ghetto blaster on
385
00:33:28.200 --> 00:33:30.519
the front porch and just blasting your
tunes for the whole neighborhood. Yeah,
386
00:33:30.680 --> 00:33:36.839
you know, I had I'll never
forget I had a Lasnic Lasnic ghetto blaster
387
00:33:37.160 --> 00:33:39.039
back then. There was a it
was a pretty cool thing to have.
388
00:33:39.359 --> 00:33:44.119
He continues on. He says eighties
tech head personality and thinks to their low
389
00:33:44.200 --> 00:33:51.480
tech nous and we miss unfolding the
cassettes and CD inserts or record inserts in
390
00:33:51.559 --> 00:33:55.279
the band pictures and lyrics. He
says, Give me those buttons and dials
391
00:33:55.559 --> 00:34:00.160
and my cassettes any day, and
a number two pen soul, and a
392
00:34:00.279 --> 00:34:04.880
number two pencil for when that cassette
got stuck. That's right, that's right,
393
00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:07.759
brother, But it's not you forget
that. Yeah, some of the
394
00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:12.440
some of the smallest things that we
used to take for granted every day are
395
00:34:12.800 --> 00:34:16.760
those things that even though we are
filled with technology today that we have touchscreens
396
00:34:17.079 --> 00:34:22.400
now we just swipe to hear something
else or to see another page. I
397
00:34:22.519 --> 00:34:28.960
want to say the minority. I'm
in the minority that still likes the old
398
00:34:29.199 --> 00:34:35.000
analog stuff, not because it was
better, but because of the sentimental value
399
00:34:35.039 --> 00:34:37.559
that it holds in my heart.
But you could say some people would say
400
00:34:37.639 --> 00:34:43.119
the same thing about albums. Some
people would probably say the same thing about
401
00:34:44.159 --> 00:34:51.199
h DVD players. But even before
you know what I mean, people would
402
00:34:51.239 --> 00:34:54.880
feel that way about a tracks.
I think whatever people got their kicks on,
403
00:34:55.159 --> 00:35:00.320
is always going to hold true and
special in their heart as many years
404
00:35:00.360 --> 00:35:05.599
that pass them, because it's always
going to be something that's going to take
405
00:35:05.760 --> 00:35:10.239
everybody back to memory lane. Whether
it's a song, a device, a
406
00:35:10.400 --> 00:35:16.039
television show. Heck, maybe even
the make of a television you know what
407
00:35:16.119 --> 00:35:22.320
I'm saying. Maybe a type of
clothing may take you back, a certain
408
00:35:22.440 --> 00:35:28.320
song, an actor, an actress. There's so many things that we can
409
00:35:29.679 --> 00:35:32.079
hold so dear to our heart to
take them back, take us all the
410
00:35:32.159 --> 00:35:37.239
way back. Like I mentioned the
ghetto blaster. You know, back in
411
00:35:37.320 --> 00:35:42.079
the eighties, a ghetto blaster I
got bigger and bigger and bigger, and
412
00:35:42.960 --> 00:35:46.079
you know, sometimes you would see
two dudes carrying a ghetto blaster so they
413
00:35:46.119 --> 00:35:52.719
can go ahead and breakdancer, you
know, go to a backyard party and
414
00:35:52.840 --> 00:35:57.119
crank on some metal. I mean, the ghetto blaster was a very big
415
00:35:57.280 --> 00:36:05.559
part of we in the youth and
our music lives. People going riding their
416
00:36:05.599 --> 00:36:08.960
bikes on the beach carrying a ghetto
blaster or sometimes hanging that ghetto blaster on
417
00:36:09.079 --> 00:36:13.159
the handlebar or the bike you roll
down to the park. You know what
418
00:36:13.239 --> 00:36:15.320
I mean, You're gonna go hang
out with your friends, somebody's always taken
419
00:36:15.360 --> 00:36:19.800
a ghetto blaster, just the way
it was. I remember going down to
420
00:36:19.920 --> 00:36:23.599
Model Bello Park and hanging out and
there would be like maybe fifteen different ghetto
421
00:36:23.679 --> 00:36:29.360
blasters there with fifteen different crowds.
You know what I'm saying. People were
422
00:36:29.440 --> 00:36:34.280
cranking their tunes and everybody was kind
of getting along. The ghetto blaster.
423
00:36:35.000 --> 00:36:38.599
That was almost like today's cell phone
in a certain essence. Man, I
424
00:36:38.679 --> 00:36:44.039
can't go to a gathering without my
tunes. Grab the radio. Chris Kurtz
425
00:36:44.440 --> 00:36:47.159
says, the first eight years of
my life and the very best movies,
426
00:36:47.840 --> 00:36:52.960
video games, music of that era. The video stores, the arcades,
427
00:36:53.960 --> 00:36:58.559
the PiZZ sareas. Do you remember
the pizzareas now? Is it me?
428
00:36:59.159 --> 00:37:05.880
Or wasn't pizzerias? Weren't pizzeria's much
better? Back then? We had Godfather's
429
00:37:05.960 --> 00:37:12.599
Pizza. I remember Sergeant Pepperoni's pizza. We had a round table pizza.
430
00:37:12.840 --> 00:37:16.480
Now some of these we still have
today, but like Shaky Shaky's Pizza.
431
00:37:16.840 --> 00:37:23.599
But the taste was just phenomenal.
Where almost every pizzeria just tasted great.
432
00:37:23.760 --> 00:37:29.159
It had their own individual tastes.
Now what I recall about some of the
433
00:37:29.400 --> 00:37:36.280
pizzerias were they were family restaurants and
that is so much missed nowadays. And
434
00:37:36.400 --> 00:37:39.840
like I say, I'm very fortunate
because I was a young kid in the
435
00:37:39.920 --> 00:37:45.960
eighties and also a young father,
so my girls got to get a touch
436
00:37:45.039 --> 00:37:50.920
in the taste of what we hold
so dear in our heart. Being from
437
00:37:50.960 --> 00:37:54.239
the eighties, I'm very fortunate and
blessed to say that my children still got
438
00:37:54.320 --> 00:38:00.199
some of that nostalgic type lifestyle of
the eighties and pizzerias. Like I just
439
00:38:00.400 --> 00:38:05.760
say, stated, we're epic at
the time where you could take your whole
440
00:38:05.800 --> 00:38:08.559
family to eat. You can go
with your buddies or your bowling team or
441
00:38:08.920 --> 00:38:14.719
your softball teams, or watch Monday
night football and go eat. And you
442
00:38:14.840 --> 00:38:17.519
know, they had the bunch of
lunches. You could take your family to
443
00:38:17.639 --> 00:38:22.840
a pizza place at night and have
pizza wings, whatever you want. There
444
00:38:22.960 --> 00:38:27.239
was TVs, remember the video games
in there. They were just yeah,
445
00:38:27.400 --> 00:38:30.559
it was a fun place for the
family to eat. And everybody loves pizza,
446
00:38:31.079 --> 00:38:37.559
but I and everybody ordered pictures,
remember pictures of coke or pictures of
447
00:38:37.679 --> 00:38:40.760
beer for the adults. Bat and
you had mojo potatoes. Now, I
448
00:38:40.920 --> 00:38:45.360
recall going to a lot of the
old mom and pop pizzerias when I was
449
00:38:45.400 --> 00:38:51.159
growing up in a monvelo and we
used to go to this one called the
450
00:38:51.440 --> 00:38:54.719
Toes Pizza. Now, these cats
were straight out of New York, so
451
00:38:54.920 --> 00:39:00.559
their pizza was straight out of New
York. So but I kind of recall
452
00:39:00.679 --> 00:39:07.880
see more pizza establishments like that from
mom and pop vendors and businesses as opposed
453
00:39:07.880 --> 00:39:12.280
to what we see out here now. I don't see too too many.
454
00:39:12.719 --> 00:39:17.960
There are some out there, but
I don't think there is frequent as in
455
00:39:19.119 --> 00:39:22.559
each community as they used to be. Let me throw you way back.
456
00:39:22.800 --> 00:39:27.360
Do you remember that when we wanted
to order a pizza because we didn't have
457
00:39:27.480 --> 00:39:30.760
the internet, order on your phone, and do you wanted to try You
458
00:39:30.280 --> 00:39:34.199
ordered through your phone. But let's
say you wanted to try something else that
459
00:39:34.480 --> 00:39:37.880
wasn't your Dominoes, wasn't your Pizza
Hut or something like that. What do
460
00:39:38.000 --> 00:39:42.199
we do? We got the Yellow
Pages? And remember when we got to
461
00:39:42.360 --> 00:39:47.840
the peace and in the Yellow Pages
there were just countless pizzaias. And I
462
00:39:47.960 --> 00:39:53.760
can still still today. I can
smell, I have the scent, and
463
00:39:53.880 --> 00:39:59.599
I can picture the scent in my
mind of those yellow pages. Do you
464
00:39:59.639 --> 00:40:04.440
remember where they they said they had
this funky smell. But it was exciting
465
00:40:04.519 --> 00:40:07.079
when you you picked out your pizza
place. I remember, and we were
466
00:40:07.119 --> 00:40:13.519
in Downy End. There was always
a new pizzaia there and I remember Pizza
467
00:40:13.559 --> 00:40:16.400
Man. Remember Pizza Man. That
was like a change. Right now,
468
00:40:16.400 --> 00:40:20.880
that is very funny that that is
funny that you bring that up. I
469
00:40:21.000 --> 00:40:22.719
was just going to ask you.
We used to get our pizza a lot
470
00:40:22.760 --> 00:40:27.280
from Pizza Man. Remember it was
just the picture of the guy the side
471
00:40:27.280 --> 00:40:30.440
of his head. No, yes, no eyes, that's the Pizza Man.
472
00:40:30.599 --> 00:40:36.280
Yeah. And it was fantasic pizza. So they were big z.
473
00:40:37.159 --> 00:40:43.199
What happened with pizza? What happened
with pizza? Everything became tiny and expensive
474
00:40:43.679 --> 00:40:47.679
and before it was humongous and not
expensive. You could say the same about
475
00:40:47.760 --> 00:40:52.119
Taco Bell back in the eighties,
Taco Bell, when you ordered one of
476
00:40:52.199 --> 00:40:59.599
those Caucasian style of Mexican entrees,
the Burrito Supreme. And remember Taco Bell
477
00:40:59.719 --> 00:41:05.199
had one of my favorite dishes called
the cherrito. Yes, it was basically
478
00:41:05.320 --> 00:41:10.639
a burrito that was basically dipped in
the sauce and made like an end and
479
00:41:12.159 --> 00:41:17.400
now no, no, then some
Mexican stuff establishments called the Wet Moto and
480
00:41:17.599 --> 00:41:23.760
that's right, but you remember how
big the Burrito Supreme, And now you
481
00:41:23.840 --> 00:41:28.360
could eat that thing in two bites. It's like, yeah, it literally
482
00:41:28.920 --> 00:41:31.280
is the size of a top.
Yes, exactly, it's no bigger than
483
00:41:31.320 --> 00:41:36.880
those frozen burritos that they saved in
the at the supermarkets. And I gotta
484
00:41:37.000 --> 00:41:44.000
tell you why I'm really pissed off
at one particular Mexican food chain that nobody
485
00:41:44.039 --> 00:41:46.800
in the country or around the world's
gonna know unless you lived in Los Angeles,
486
00:41:46.960 --> 00:41:51.079
Okay, really, and that is
King Taco. And I'll tell you
487
00:41:51.079 --> 00:41:54.800
why I'm pissed with them, because
yes, they're still good. But I
488
00:41:54.960 --> 00:42:00.840
went to a King Taco in Pasadena, which because I was visiting there and
489
00:42:00.039 --> 00:42:05.159
I had never gone to them,
And when I got my burrito, it
490
00:42:05.320 --> 00:42:08.559
was the size of my palm.
WHOA. Now, granted I have big
491
00:42:08.679 --> 00:42:13.440
hands, but they're not that big. Okay, he said, yeah,
492
00:42:14.440 --> 00:42:19.119
But you know what I mean when
a burrito. You had a burrito that
493
00:42:19.199 --> 00:42:22.840
you could eat with two hands before, and now you get one that's really
494
00:42:22.960 --> 00:42:28.159
skinny and and just the size of
a of a Taco Bell Burrito Supreme.
495
00:42:28.679 --> 00:42:34.039
That was really really pissed off that
day. Plus they're expensive. But then
496
00:42:34.119 --> 00:42:42.719
again, you were in Pasadena,
californ Yeah, Hey, you weren't is
497
00:42:42.840 --> 00:42:46.440
Los Angeles? What can I get
you today? No, I wasn't the
498
00:42:46.639 --> 00:42:50.960
heart of the Back to the Future
land. Yes, you were like,
499
00:42:51.400 --> 00:42:54.719
Hi, welcome to King Taco mon
it's Craig. What can I get?
500
00:42:54.840 --> 00:43:05.199
Yeah? Difference exactly got that right? All right, we continue because Susan
501
00:43:05.400 --> 00:43:08.639
Freeman said, Wow, what didn't
it mean to me? The music,
502
00:43:08.840 --> 00:43:13.440
the clothes, the makeup, you
name it. That leg that decade will
503
00:43:13.480 --> 00:43:17.400
live on forever. Kate Farr said, a time when pop culture was willing
504
00:43:17.599 --> 00:43:23.480
to be upbeat and colorful. Grunge
later on and Emo destroyed it, and
505
00:43:23.639 --> 00:43:28.320
it's never really bounced back. And
I think she's got a point. You
506
00:43:28.400 --> 00:43:35.119
know what made to a certain degree. I wouldn't say that grunge us destroyed.
507
00:43:35.159 --> 00:43:38.159
That would say it destroy would say
pretty metal, glam metal, Oh
508
00:43:38.880 --> 00:43:44.039
music, grunge destroyed it? What's
the nineties? Listen to me? Listen
509
00:43:44.079 --> 00:43:46.159
to it was over? Nirvana killed
it. No, We'll come on,
510
00:43:46.639 --> 00:43:50.599
rich hater, don't be a hater
of the grunge. Oh, it killed
511
00:43:50.639 --> 00:43:54.559
it, It killed it. Grunge
music is hard seventies early eighties rock and
512
00:43:54.679 --> 00:44:00.199
roll, with everybody wearing a flannel
shirt like the dude for brawny pa Apri
513
00:44:00.320 --> 00:44:05.679
towels. That's the only difference between
growth coming out of destroyed it. No
514
00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:09.000
emol, No, the only thing
that emo. You know what was emil?
515
00:44:09.559 --> 00:44:16.599
That pretty metal like poison and wo
you guys would kill you. Gotta
516
00:44:16.639 --> 00:44:30.280
go check out the Ah please faster, Pussycat faster what. I don't get
517
00:44:30.360 --> 00:44:32.119
us started with that. Don't get
us start. However, I am not
518
00:44:32.239 --> 00:44:36.440
a hater. I'm not a hater
of the pretty, pretty metal either,
519
00:44:36.880 --> 00:44:42.840
because I do love all music.
I am an enjoyer of all music rather
520
00:44:42.960 --> 00:44:49.679
than a dick hater. I bet
you love well, you go you love
521
00:44:49.800 --> 00:44:58.079
Sebastian Bok. I bet you Tascannell
probably want a naked autograph Sebastian Bock before
522
00:44:58.119 --> 00:45:01.639
the alcohol. No, you you
are probably thinking of the mad boy.
523
00:45:01.960 --> 00:45:06.440
You're thinking of the man boy.
I'm not that. Man boy has a
524
00:45:06.559 --> 00:45:10.559
life size poster of Miles Kennedy.
Yes, the ceiling of his bedroom.
525
00:45:10.679 --> 00:45:13.679
Yeah, big shout out to you, man boy. You know who you
526
00:45:13.800 --> 00:45:16.400
are. We know who you are. We know it. Now back back
527
00:45:16.440 --> 00:45:21.559
to the topic, all right,
so please at hand. Dominic Salazar said,
528
00:45:21.679 --> 00:45:25.840
look, no, Facebook didn't need
it. Back then, things were
529
00:45:27.039 --> 00:45:30.480
more up close. If you like
someone, you just confront them and say
530
00:45:30.519 --> 00:45:34.039
it, plain and simple. And
the music. I could start a long
531
00:45:34.159 --> 00:45:38.519
story in regards to the music.
It was the best era. Now,
532
00:45:38.639 --> 00:45:42.880
the eighties, I think is the
last era where you could write love notes
533
00:45:42.920 --> 00:45:45.440
to each other. When people were
doing that. Yes, now everybody just
534
00:45:45.599 --> 00:45:49.679
you could text somebody something, you
could you you could send Dick picks.
535
00:45:49.760 --> 00:45:52.280
Nowadays, you couldn't do that back
in the eighties. We hear, we
536
00:45:52.440 --> 00:45:57.519
hear, do not promote or condoned
sending of any kind of those picks.
537
00:45:57.800 --> 00:46:01.360
Well, you know it's Dick Nix
and Dick saw Argent, Richard, Richard
538
00:46:01.400 --> 00:46:06.039
Pick, you know, Richard,
Richard Belzer. I mean, you name
539
00:46:06.119 --> 00:46:08.639
it. There's so many. You
know, Richard Blade, you know,
540
00:46:08.880 --> 00:46:13.800
Come on, bro, this is
back to the eighties radio. We come
541
00:46:13.880 --> 00:46:19.320
back. There's more. What do
the eighties mean to you? Don't go
542
00:46:19.360 --> 00:46:23.440
away? No, if it's totally
tubular, red or awesome, needs on
543
00:46:23.800 --> 00:46:30.960
back to the eighties school money.
Now, hey, this is not a
544
00:46:30.079 --> 00:46:35.039
test. This is rock and roll
time. The rocket from the Delta to
545
00:46:35.119 --> 00:46:37.599
the DMZ. Is that me?
Or does that sound like an Elvis pressing
546
00:46:37.639 --> 00:46:42.280
movie? Vivo da nan oh,
Vivo da nan. Don't hang me,
547
00:46:42.440 --> 00:46:45.519
don't hang me. We don't get
a roban hang meer. Hey, it's
548
00:46:45.519 --> 00:46:51.719
a little too early for being that
loud. Hey too late. And now
549
00:46:52.119 --> 00:47:00.800
back to the eighties with Tiscano and
Chang. Welcome back to back to the
550
00:47:00.920 --> 00:47:05.039
eighties. This is Tiscano with Jiang
Chang. Here we are talking about the
551
00:47:05.239 --> 00:47:09.400
topic of what did the nineteen eighties
mean to you? Good? Bad?
552
00:47:09.960 --> 00:47:15.239
Or? In the middle me and
Tiscano, I've already dove into what the
553
00:47:15.840 --> 00:47:22.280
eighties meant to us. Tiscano,
the ADL the eighties man was like an
554
00:47:22.440 --> 00:47:29.400
ADL dark type for me, bro
I was just out of jail and I
555
00:47:29.559 --> 00:47:34.480
was only four. You know the
number one thing that everybody agreed on.
556
00:47:34.800 --> 00:47:39.079
And I didn't have one single person
say you know something negative about the eighties.
557
00:47:39.599 --> 00:47:43.960
Everything was positive, but the number
one, I would say, the
558
00:47:44.320 --> 00:47:50.480
factor that unites us all the music. Yeah, it's music. Everybody loves
559
00:47:51.320 --> 00:47:55.639
eighties music, right, whether you
believe like me, video killed the radio
560
00:48:00.480 --> 00:48:07.360
or you believed like Tisconnell, where
videos were better than listening to somebody on
561
00:48:07.400 --> 00:48:09.639
the radio and listening No, I
never said that, no way, No,
562
00:48:10.639 --> 00:48:17.920
you never said that, Yes you
did. No I don't because no,
563
00:48:19.159 --> 00:48:22.000
I would never say that, because
that'd be a blatant lie. No.
564
00:48:23.079 --> 00:48:27.480
I did love watching videos on MTV. Of course they did. I
565
00:48:27.559 --> 00:48:32.039
don't think there are too many people
except for Dick Haytor and his friends that
566
00:48:32.360 --> 00:48:37.719
didn't like watching MTV. Now,
look, did it end up killing the
567
00:48:37.880 --> 00:48:43.159
radio star at the end? Well, I can tell you that it probably
568
00:48:43.280 --> 00:48:51.840
did, absolutely because it was and
the radio and you know what, the
569
00:48:52.039 --> 00:48:54.800
radio business as well. It also
killed the radio business as well. So
570
00:48:55.599 --> 00:49:00.719
did bands not care more about what
they looked like? Of course on screen
571
00:49:00.960 --> 00:49:05.920
that you remember putting out in you
remember a lot of that wasn't even the
572
00:49:06.000 --> 00:49:13.159
bands. It was the stinking labels
and the corporate the corporate executives that the
573
00:49:13.280 --> 00:49:16.599
record Oh, they know more than
the actual fans and what they want,
574
00:49:17.199 --> 00:49:23.760
and they came along and ruined everything
for everybody. Then music changed or the
575
00:49:23.880 --> 00:49:27.480
worst. But yeah, so the
number one thing that we all have in
576
00:49:27.599 --> 00:49:34.840
common is we all loved the music
and whether it came out of a device,
577
00:49:35.000 --> 00:49:38.880
an eight track, a cassette,
an album, a ghetto loser,
578
00:49:39.159 --> 00:49:45.719
whether it came out of the radio
or a walkman, the whole essence of
579
00:49:45.800 --> 00:49:50.559
the eighties is that vibe of music. Right, and it has died.
580
00:49:50.960 --> 00:49:52.599
Yeah, I truly agree with you
when that one. It has died.
581
00:49:52.920 --> 00:49:57.840
As a matter of fact, Look
at look at the shape terrestrial radio is
582
00:49:57.920 --> 00:50:01.519
in uh Los Angeles. It's a
disgrace, man, It's a disgrace,
583
00:50:01.920 --> 00:50:07.440
you know. But then then that's
why your beautiful listeners out there get such
584
00:50:07.519 --> 00:50:12.480
a great show just like here it
back to the eighties by a couple of
585
00:50:12.559 --> 00:50:19.159
goons right here that are from the
past life famous radio jobs. Where else
586
00:50:19.440 --> 00:50:23.679
are you going to hear the content
that you hear here? And where else
587
00:50:23.880 --> 00:50:30.440
that you're going to feel more nostalgia
than here? Back to the eighties radio?
588
00:50:30.559 --> 00:50:36.079
There's nowhere nowhere because nobody is going
to say what we say and the
589
00:50:36.239 --> 00:50:38.360
way we say it. That's right. I'm tooting my own horn, that's
590
00:50:38.440 --> 00:50:44.119
right. I do. If you
have a special topic that you'd like to
591
00:50:44.760 --> 00:50:46.679
well share with us here back to
the eighties, and you would like for
592
00:50:46.840 --> 00:50:51.280
us to discuss that on the show, go ahead and send us a note
593
00:50:51.480 --> 00:50:55.800
at our Facebook page, through an
instant message or a direct message, and
594
00:50:57.000 --> 00:51:00.159
we'd love to talk about the topic
that you'd like you're on the show.
595
00:51:00.519 --> 00:51:05.599
I also want to let you guys
know that we do have a Patreon page
596
00:51:05.679 --> 00:51:09.519
that we'd like to encourage you to
go over. We want to make you
597
00:51:09.920 --> 00:51:16.000
part of the show, and there's
also some levels there that depending on the
598
00:51:16.039 --> 00:51:21.480
amount that you're able to give,
you know, you get something in return.
599
00:51:21.679 --> 00:51:24.639
Obviously for that, we are going
to be making. As we mentioned
600
00:51:24.760 --> 00:51:29.239
last week, we're going to be
making just some slight changes to the show.
601
00:51:29.760 --> 00:51:32.679
Nothing really big, so don't worry. The cheesy sketches are going to
602
00:51:32.719 --> 00:51:36.639
always remain in the beginning of the
show, but I do I do want
603
00:51:36.639 --> 00:51:39.760
to let you know that there are
some small changes because we do want to
604
00:51:39.840 --> 00:51:45.599
give something back to the community and
we do want to be interviewing people that
605
00:51:45.719 --> 00:51:50.000
can help us eighties fans at least
maybe once a month, and we're going
606
00:51:50.039 --> 00:51:54.119
to be doing something special with a
guest as well. We are also going
607
00:51:54.199 --> 00:52:00.800
to be planning some special stuff with
you in person. Once we get all
608
00:52:00.840 --> 00:52:06.480
this COVID madness and mask mandates out
of here if no World War three gets
609
00:52:06.519 --> 00:52:09.159
started. Of course, Chang,
there's some stuff that we want to do
610
00:52:09.400 --> 00:52:13.480
live, and we're going to be
able to do some live stuff. Stuff
611
00:52:13.639 --> 00:52:20.159
at the Totally eighties barring Grill in
the City of Fullerton and some other places
612
00:52:20.199 --> 00:52:23.599
we're going to be going live with
and hopefully Chang by then you're going to
613
00:52:23.679 --> 00:52:27.880
be here in La County. As
soon as I know these dates, I
614
00:52:28.039 --> 00:52:30.960
will do exactly what I have to
do, and I we have to get
615
00:52:30.000 --> 00:52:35.559
down there because there's nothing better than
going to an event like that and meeting
616
00:52:36.320 --> 00:52:39.079
the people that listen to us and
putting a smile on your face, not
617
00:52:39.239 --> 00:52:43.119
only from Afar, but right there
as we meet, because that's right,
618
00:52:43.760 --> 00:52:45.440
that's our model right here with back
to the eighties. We want to make
619
00:52:45.480 --> 00:52:49.719
you feel better than you did when
you cranked us on. We want to
620
00:52:49.800 --> 00:52:54.440
make you feel better than you did
maybe during this week or something happened at
621
00:52:54.480 --> 00:52:59.320
work, maybe you're at home and
you're a little stressed out with your husband,
622
00:52:59.440 --> 00:53:02.119
your spy, with your kids.
You know, we want to be
623
00:53:02.280 --> 00:53:07.280
those voices that you turn on,
and we're going to turn you onto a
624
00:53:07.360 --> 00:53:10.079
smile because that's what makes the world
go around a smile. You can't be
625
00:53:10.239 --> 00:53:15.400
progressive and positive if you adn't smile
on my brother. So everybody out there,
626
00:53:15.480 --> 00:53:17.960
you know, we hear our motel
at to scott and chain back to
627
00:53:19.000 --> 00:53:22.360
the eighties. We want to give
back to all of you for giving to
628
00:53:22.519 --> 00:53:24.679
us your ears. We want to
make you smile. You know, hey,
629
00:53:24.840 --> 00:53:29.079
right now in life, this is
a very trying time. We don't
630
00:53:29.079 --> 00:53:32.159
know what the heck is going to
happen. We have a bunch of cyclopaths
631
00:53:32.320 --> 00:53:37.079
running the countries, and we don't
know if we're about to embark on World
632
00:53:37.119 --> 00:53:42.360
War three. You know, maybe
maybe it won't be that bad if we
633
00:53:42.480 --> 00:53:46.760
all can pray and put our hands
together and come up with a better way
634
00:53:46.800 --> 00:53:51.559
of life to where it's not going
to blow up that way, Hopefully whoever
635
00:53:51.760 --> 00:53:54.679
is in charge of our country does
what they have to do to not have
636
00:53:54.920 --> 00:53:59.440
that happen. And when you're out
there, just every day, whether it
637
00:53:59.519 --> 00:54:02.360
be a noble a downer, or
maybe you had a bad day of work,
638
00:54:04.199 --> 00:54:07.119
maybe you had an argument with your
spouse, family member, maybe the
639
00:54:07.199 --> 00:54:12.079
kids aren't listening, maybe you had
a bad day in traffic. We want
640
00:54:12.199 --> 00:54:16.360
you to tune on to us and
just smile because everybody needs to smile.
641
00:54:17.039 --> 00:54:22.440
If me and Tiscono could make you
smile every time you crank us on,
642
00:54:22.239 --> 00:54:24.920
that's going to help you get through
your day. To take on whatever.
643
00:54:25.320 --> 00:54:31.519
And remember, whatever you're going through
is just a trial. You know,
644
00:54:31.800 --> 00:54:35.480
whether you win it or you lose
it, you went through that trial.
645
00:54:35.639 --> 00:54:40.199
The number one thing you come out
of it is wisdom to remember, Tiscano
646
00:54:40.280 --> 00:54:44.599
and Chang back to the eighties.
We want to make you smile and we
647
00:54:44.920 --> 00:54:47.760
want to get you through life.
So you leave this place a lot wiser
648
00:54:49.199 --> 00:54:51.920
than you did when you got here. You know what I'm saying, tisconod,
649
00:54:52.079 --> 00:54:54.000
you know what time it is right
now, Chang, it is time
650
00:54:55.239 --> 00:55:00.800
to let the world know what made
us angry back in the eighties. But
651
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:05.719
in honor of the most wondrous Chang, we now call them changers. So,
652
00:55:05.960 --> 00:55:10.440
Chang, what made you changry back
in the nineteen eighties. You know
653
00:55:10.519 --> 00:55:17.320
what got meat changry back in the
nineteen eighties. What's scary videos? Well,
654
00:55:17.400 --> 00:55:21.639
you know what got meat changry back
in the nineteen eighties. Going to
655
00:55:21.800 --> 00:55:27.159
your favorite burger place and finding out
it was out of business. You know
656
00:55:27.239 --> 00:55:30.599
what got meat changry back in the
nineteen eighties. Pioneer chicken. Oh,

00:55:30.920 --> 00:55:35.800
I love pioneered. You know what
got me changery back in the eighties?
658
00:55:36.239 --> 00:55:39.280
No refills on your coat. I
think for every free refill you had to
659
00:55:39.320 --> 00:55:45.079
come back with a flannel shirt and
say that grunge music kicked ass. I
660
00:55:45.159 --> 00:55:52.440
think that's when that started. In
nineteen eighty eight, Taco Bell launched the
661
00:55:52.880 --> 00:55:57.599
all you can drink That's right,
nineteen eighty eight, So it is an
662
00:55:57.639 --> 00:56:01.039
eighties thing. Free refills nineteen eighty
eight, launched by Taco Bell. Thank
663
00:56:01.079 --> 00:56:05.559
you, Taco Bell, Thank you. You know what got me changry back
664
00:56:05.599 --> 00:56:09.159

706
00:59:39.119 --> 00:59:44.519
And remember everybody out there, just
because we have one individual that's a
707
00:59:44.639 --> 00:59:47.679
madman does not mean that we all
need to react in a madman form.
708
00:59:49.440 --> 00:59:52.840
We are all one race, the
human race. Let's remember that at all
709
00:59:52.960 --> 00:59:58.039
times, stand up for something that
is bigger than you. Stand up for
710
00:59:58.159 --> 01:00:00.920
somebody that can stand up for them. Elves, stand up for each other
711
01:00:01.039 --> 01:00:07.800
because remember, the only way through
and too prosperity is through unity. So
712
01:00:08.000 --> 01:00:13.280
I'll go out there and be the
best that you can be and always wear
713
01:00:13.320 --> 01:00:16.679
a smile. Tomorrow is not promised, so kick ass and appreciate today.

here as we are every single Friday.
57
00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:49.800
Joining us from a land far away
is a gentleman that we cannot do the
58
00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:56.800
show without because he is referred to
as the Goldilocks of Central California. He's
59
00:04:56.800 --> 00:05:00.759
also been known as the Man the
Month, and a ledge and in his
60
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:04.639
very own mind, but here at
Back to the eighties radio we just call
61
00:05:04.759 --> 00:05:10.439
him the chang uh Tascano. It's
good to see you, It's good to
62
00:05:10.519 --> 00:05:13.800
talk to you. Hello, all
our lovely listeners, hear it? Back
63
00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:18.720
to the eighties. I was just
on another expedition looking for clues to see
64
00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:25.800
what happened to Sasquatch. I did
find some rare droppings. For those of
65
00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:29.759
you who don't know, Chang does
live in the midst of the land of
66
00:05:29.879 --> 00:05:31.360
the Yetty. So, yeah,
you know what it could have been.
67
00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:34.279
It could have been Bigfoot? Do
you never know what it is? I'm
68
00:05:34.319 --> 00:05:41.360
telling you, Ever, since that
one day that I seen that hairy tweaker
69
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:48.639
run across the highway naked, I
knew that the YETI was not far from
70
00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:51.879
that individual's blood light. I've seen
it with my own eyes. Well,
71
00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:56.079
we want to welcome everybody listening to
once again, this is back to the
72
00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:59.079
eighties radio show. Today. We
want to bring a lot of smiles to
73
00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:03.199
people's faces because there's a lot of
crap going down that's mentally taking me back
74
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:06.560
to a part of the eighties where
we were worried about World War three.
75
00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:12.199
Remember that time, Bro Reagan had
gotten us pretty close to that red Button.
76
00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:17.480
I did no such thing. How
dare you say that I was about
77
00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:23.839
to be any dealt red Button?
The only red button I was ever knew
78
00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:27.720
was a fellow actor, Red Buttons. Hey, back to the eighties fans.
79
00:06:28.079 --> 00:06:30.680
Do you love true crime podcasts but
are sick and tired of listening to
80
00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:35.079
the same cases over and over and
over again. I mean, seriously,
81
00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:39.800
how many times can you listen to
a story about Ted Bondeer or the Golden
82
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:43.920
State Killer. If I have to
hear one more podcast about John Wayne Gacy,
83
00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:46.720
I'm gonna dress up as a clown
and shoot myself. Now. If
84
00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:50.040
you feel the way I do,
then you have to listen to Modem Mischief.
85
00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:56.040
Modum Mischief is a true cybercrime podcast. They tell stories about the world's
86
00:06:56.079 --> 00:07:00.639
most notorious hackers and the lives affected
by them. You're going to hear stories
87
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:03.279
about the dark Web and what goes
on down there. And since you love
88
00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:08.160
the eighties, of course, this
week's show is about the teenage hacker gang,
89
00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:12.199
the four one fours. It's like
war games, but in real life.
90
00:07:12.800 --> 00:07:16.560
That's Modem Mischief. Wherever you get
your podcasts, don't go away.
91
00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:21.079
When we come back, we're gonna
be talking about what do the eighties mean
92
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:29.480
to you? You're listening to Back
to the eighties? Eight some of you
93
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:32.319
remember the eighties five? Right?
Well, it lives loud and proud.
94
00:07:32.680 --> 00:07:42.800
On back to the eighties with my
pals to Scotto and Chay. If you
95
00:07:42.920 --> 00:07:47.920
can't wear a spandex jumpsuit, what
can you do? This to the eighties
96
00:07:50.680 --> 00:07:57.519
of the infamous, to Scutin Chay. Here and tonight we are talking about
97
00:07:57.759 --> 00:08:03.720
something that is dear to all our
hearts. And the question that Toscano and
98
00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:11.399
I are posing is what did the
nineteen eighties mean to you? Whether it
99
00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:20.560
be fun, sad, adventurous,
a time of change or a time of
100
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:24.160
reckoning. What did the eighties do
for you? Now? Tscanno, I
101
00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:31.920
know we've had dozens, dozens of
comments when you put this out on our
102
00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:37.559
page, and the thing that I
did notice that there were so many different
103
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:45.919
answers and replies. Some people speak
of it as a sad time, some
104
00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:50.000
speak of it as a great time
people some people loved it just for the
105
00:08:50.159 --> 00:08:56.440
movies, the music, the ambiance, and the fashion. So before we
106
00:08:56.519 --> 00:09:00.120
get into some of our listeners,
Toscano, let me ask you, what
107
00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:07.320
did the nineteen eighties mean to you? Oh man, that question is deep
108
00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:11.360
for me because you know, I
started thinking about that today and I was
109
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:15.200
and I knew the question was coming. I knew you were going to ask
110
00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:18.840
me that. There's lots of things
that go through my mind of what that
111
00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:22.519
era meant to me. But I
think if I were just to boil it
112
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:28.440
down to one word, if that's
possible, or at least a phrase,
113
00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:35.960
I would I would probably say,
freedom and no worries. Now, no
114
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:41.240
worries in the sense, you know, everybody worries. Our parents worried,
115
00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:45.279
and if you were a young parent
back then you worried. You worried for
116
00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:50.080
different reasons. But I was a
teen back then, so teens, especially
117
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:58.919
back then, what worried did usually
did teens have not many It was going
118
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:03.360
out with your friends, hanging out
outside every single day. Some people went
119
00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:07.200
skating with their friends. It was
Saturday morning. You know, I'm talking
120
00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:11.240
about real early in the eighties,
let's say eighty three or eighty four,
121
00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:15.840
when you were in high school.
A lot of us were eating waffles,
122
00:10:15.960 --> 00:10:18.720
you know, our Saturday morning cartoons. There was a lot of But for
123
00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:22.519
me, I want to say,
it was freedom, freedom, and I
124
00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:26.440
didn't have a worry in the world
at times. At least that's what it
125
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:30.000
seemed like in certain times. But
the freedom that you felt back then,
126
00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:33.759
I don't know. Maybe it's one
of those things that now, looking at
127
00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:37.799
it in retrospect, we think we
had that freedom, but there really wasn't
128
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:43.399
as much in a sense, you
know what, I feel that nowadays everybody's
129
00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:50.080
suffocated, suffocated by social you know
what I mean by social media. Sometimes
130
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:54.159
I literally feel suffocated by all the
technology. By social media. Yeah.
131
00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:58.279
Of course, it's brought convenience to
our doorstep. It's brought a lot of
132
00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:03.799
ease, but it's also brought a
lot of tension, a lot of worry,
133
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:05.960
a lot of problems, things that
we didn't have before. We didn't
134
00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:09.759
have to worry about that stuff.
So I would say that, what about
135
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:15.679
you? Very good word now before
I tell you what the eighties meant to
136
00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:20.480
the chain here, you spoke of
freedom, and that's a great word to
137
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:24.840
use, because back in the eighties
we all did feel a little bit more
138
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:28.679
free. Things did seem a little
bit more carefree because of our ages,
139
00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:37.080
of course, but you spoke about
being a kid watching cartoons. You probably
140
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:39.080
used to watch He Man correct.
Oh, yeah, He Man and g
141
00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:43.480
I Joe those are my big cartoons, right, So I can imagine the
142
00:11:43.639 --> 00:11:48.559
freedom you speak of was like you
felt just so free and great to where
143
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:54.440
your underwear dressed up like he Man, and the privacy of your own home
144
00:11:54.519 --> 00:11:58.200
and act out the cartoon. I
mean, what other type of freedom is
145
00:11:58.279 --> 00:12:07.320
that for a young Tusconnel boy to
crank onto television and watch hem Heman?
146
00:12:07.559 --> 00:12:13.320
Yeah, as he gets into his
tidy whities and his Heman outfit and stands
147
00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:18.080
at the front. I don't all
right, all right now, I don't
148
00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:20.200
think See I didn't wear my he
Man underwear. I didn't have that.
149
00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:24.919
I did have under ruth and I
was Superman like in nineteen eighty or eighty
150
00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:28.360
one or something like that. You
gotta remember I was in high school in
151
00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:31.919
the eighties, of course, but
I didn't go to high school until um,
152
00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:37.120
like mid high school, like eighty
seven. So I was my last
153
00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:41.200
year as a junior. Hire was
eighty six. Yeah. No, when
154
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:45.360
you were playing with toys, I
was playing with girls, my friend.
155
00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:52.480
I know. I've had my experiences
since I was like ten. So yeah,
156
00:12:52.519 --> 00:12:54.039
both See, you were a dirty
little boy. You knew the church.
157
00:12:54.639 --> 00:13:01.120
You were a bad boy. I
cannot tell a lot. But how
158
00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:03.960
about you, man, how you
bet you there was a lot of spankings
159
00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:07.080
going on, but no one was
spanking you, you dirty little boy.
160
00:13:07.279 --> 00:13:09.879
I can tell you that could tell
you that my first I can tell you.
161
00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:13.480
Don't tell nobody. I know.
The listeners they can't hear us.
162
00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:18.879
No, the listeners can't hear us. Now of course we're yeah, we're
163
00:13:18.200 --> 00:13:22.320
literally using the Maxwell Smart Cone of
Silence. All right, so check this
164
00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:26.799
out. Nobody knows I'm gonna tell
you this. You know, eighties fans,
165
00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:31.440
cover your ears or take your headphones
off or whatever. Don't just don't
166
00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:37.600
listen to this. I've been playing
the bridge, Yeah, I've been.
167
00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:45.159
Stop. I've been playing tongue twisters
with chicks since I was five years old.
168
00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:48.879
Literally, Wow, that was my
first my first tongue twister, I
169
00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:52.799
was five years old. Yeah,
really, rubber baby bumpy, I don't
170
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:54.399
I can't even do it now.
That's why I wasn't that good. Yeah,
171
00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:58.559
let's just say that. Yeah.
Now, I've been playing tongue twisters
172
00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:01.279
with with chicks since I was fine
and then obviously, Yeah, so I
173
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:09.080
started very young. That explains why
you're so good on the microphone and the
174
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:16.399
harmonica. Yeah, I am on
a drug. It's called char sheen um
175
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:20.639
and uh it's not available because if
you try it once, you will die.
176
00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:22.440
Your face will melt off and you're
trall him all weep over your exploded
177
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:30.840
body. Um. Oh man.
And now now now what about you?
178
00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:35.480
Way many of you and of course
you my partner, know a lot of
179
00:14:35.600 --> 00:14:39.679
my background in the eighties. But
I will have to say this. I'm
180
00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:43.519
going to say one word, then
I will explain why I said that word,
181
00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:56.399
and c wow, what a shocked
Sorry. You know what, Yes,
182
00:14:56.679 --> 00:14:58.080
if I was a criminal in the
eighties, I would have stolen your
183
00:14:58.120 --> 00:15:01.840
TV, so you wouldn't have gotten
in your he man, get up.
184
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:03.960
You've been able to stand on the
couch and claim the living room is your
185
00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:07.200
kingdom. But I broke into my
own home and I stole stuff, So
186
00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:13.320
it's okay. What kind of breaks
it into his own house? It steals
187
00:15:13.399 --> 00:15:20.960
it out. Anyway, we digress. What did the eighties meet to you?
188
00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:28.360
The nineteen eighties to me is family. And here is exactly why these
189
00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:35.200
ingredients are of the word family.
It's kind of like family was a little
190
00:15:35.279 --> 00:15:39.600
soup, and here's the ingredients.
Now, in the very early eighties,
191
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:46.399
nineteen eighty one, at nineteen eighty
I entered high school. And I left
192
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:50.879
high school where I rather nineteen seventy
nine. Sorry, and I left in
193
00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:58.000
eighty three. Now, during that
time, family had had a lot of
194
00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:03.320
problems within my family, a lot
of shoes, you know. But then
195
00:16:03.440 --> 00:16:07.440
also my friends, my neighbors,
my homies, my buddies, that I
196
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:12.600
grew up with. I will always
call them family because during that time in
197
00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:17.159
the eighties when we were all in
high school, a lot of us were
198
00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:22.840
going through the same thing divorce,
parents, alcoholism, older siblings who didn't
199
00:16:22.879 --> 00:16:27.399
really have enough time for us,
so you know what I mean. And
200
00:16:27.799 --> 00:16:32.399
a lot of us didn't come from
money, so we had the struggle of
201
00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:34.480
life. We grew up in the
same neighborhood, the same environment, the
202
00:16:34.639 --> 00:16:41.679
same type of a family structure.
So these guys became family later in the
203
00:16:41.879 --> 00:16:45.399
eighties. As you know, I
had my first child in nineteen eighty seven.
204
00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:52.639
Then I met Missus Chang and then
she had her too. We became
205
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:56.320
kind of like a Brady Bunch Latin
style. I had one, she had
206
00:16:56.360 --> 00:17:00.000
to, then we had the baby. So to me, the eighties is
207
00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:06.480
always family. It reminds me of
the bad times within my own bloodline.
208
00:17:06.480 --> 00:17:11.799
It reminds me of the good times
that I shared with my dad and my
209
00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:15.319
sister and my brother law going to
Ram games, Dodger games, and then
210
00:17:15.680 --> 00:17:21.599
the later eighties is always a smile
because that was my time with my own
211
00:17:21.759 --> 00:17:26.559
family, with me and Missus Chang
and our four kids. So the eighties
212
00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:30.079
to me, is always going to
make me smile more than it makes me
213
00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:34.799
cry, and that is family.
Did you come from a divorced at home.
214
00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:41.440
Yeah, my parents divorced when I
was fifteen. My dad left home
215
00:17:41.920 --> 00:17:45.440
or when I was about fifteen years
old, and that same year they divorced,
216
00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:52.880
and you know, my mom my
dad was gone from that time on.
217
00:17:52.519 --> 00:17:55.759
A couple of years, me and
my dad didn't talk. You know,
218
00:17:55.960 --> 00:18:00.799
some crap got really heavy. So
the eighties, it was a crazy
219
00:18:00.920 --> 00:18:06.680
time. I was becoming a teenager
and soon to be a man, and
220
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:11.440
all hell broke loose during the eighties. But I did have some very great
221
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:14.759
times too, you know, like
I mentioned, a lot of sporting events.
222
00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:18.839
My dad enriched me and my older
sister with the Los Angeles Rams of
223
00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:22.039
course, and the LA Dodgers.
You know, I grew up going to
224
00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:26.400
Dodger Laker Ram games. So the
eighties, even though my parents had divorced,
225
00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:30.960
I'd say probably the mid eighties,
when my dad got his act together
226
00:18:32.039 --> 00:18:36.319
again, we started going back to
the games, so that you know what
227
00:18:36.440 --> 00:18:38.960
I mean. The eighties is always
that kind of a family bond, the
228
00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:42.599
bad and the good, but salt
family. You know. You know,
229
00:18:42.960 --> 00:18:47.240
my parents got divorced in nineteen eighty
four, so I was twelve years old.
230
00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:51.079
Okay, that is it may sound
bad if I say it this way,
231
00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:52.920
I don't know how it's gonna come
across. And you know, I
232
00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:57.440
grew up in an only child,
so I had that not going for me.
233
00:18:57.799 --> 00:19:00.720
First of all, I didn't have
any brothers or sisters to lean on.
234
00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:03.400
Yeah. I had cousins that I
hung out and we grew up together,
235
00:19:03.519 --> 00:19:06.759
but it's not it's never going to
be the same as having a brother
236
00:19:06.839 --> 00:19:11.160
or sister. And when my parents
got a divorce, I actually had a
237
00:19:11.720 --> 00:19:15.279
better time being by myself. I
was, and by myself I mean we
238
00:19:15.400 --> 00:19:18.640
just my friends, hanging out with
my friends, and I never had too
239
00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:22.519
many friends. I had a lot
of acquaintances. We went out to parties
240
00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:26.359
and things like that. But this
was after when I started getting you know,
241
00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:29.160
when I got into high school.
But when my parents got a divorce,
242
00:19:29.240 --> 00:19:32.680
I had more fun. And part
of that was, of course,
243
00:19:32.759 --> 00:19:34.680
you know, my parents used to
argue so much that I was glad when
244
00:19:34.720 --> 00:19:40.119
it was over, and just too
much trauma going on. But so so
245
00:19:40.559 --> 00:19:44.079
family for you. If you just

275
00:25:07.279 --> 00:25:11.559
to the eighties. Right you're at
k it's not a two point vibe,
276
00:25:11.680 --> 00:25:17.240
and you were banging right here with
Toscano A jang that is Charlonnage a great
277
00:25:17.319 --> 00:25:19.880
tune. To Scannell, what did
you think of that track? You know,
278
00:25:21.079 --> 00:25:25.599
I've told you this before. I
love ballads and this song. I
279
00:25:25.759 --> 00:25:27.519
don't want to lie. Hey man, there's something wrong with life. I
280
00:25:27.640 --> 00:25:32.359
like, I've told you this many
times. I love ballads. I love
281
00:25:32.640 --> 00:25:37.440
all kinds of music, and that's
no lie, unlike other people on the
282
00:25:37.559 --> 00:25:42.319
show that are just nothing bad haters. You know, I love me a
283
00:25:42.400 --> 00:25:48.920
good ballad, just like I enjoy
stubbing my toe, banging my head,
284
00:25:48.440 --> 00:25:55.240
tripping and falling having a hangover.
Yeah, that's about how much I enjoy
285
00:25:55.359 --> 00:25:56.880
the ballad. I want you guys
to tune in if you liked the song,
286
00:25:57.519 --> 00:26:03.599
tune in because March, in the
second week of March, we're going
287
00:26:03.680 --> 00:26:07.519
to have Scott Oliver from Charlotte coming
on the show with us and talking about
288
00:26:08.039 --> 00:26:12.640
eighties music and things like that,
and now this song. It wasn't released
289
00:26:12.720 --> 00:26:18.640
until two thousand and nine, but
they are eighties songs. Unfortunately, for
290
00:26:18.799 --> 00:26:23.839
whatever the reason, they had recorded
them, but it wasn't released until two
291
00:26:23.880 --> 00:26:29.319
thousand and nine. So I have
a question I want to run by you.
292
00:26:29.400 --> 00:26:32.880
I was going to ask them if
they got their hair done at long
293
00:26:33.000 --> 00:26:38.160
Hair Rocks or hair pirates back into
the eighties because the Chang here went to
294
00:26:38.359 --> 00:26:45.000
both establishments. Yes, I did, really now was this. Did they
295
00:26:45.119 --> 00:26:49.480
use Aquanette super strength the pink bottle, Well, they probably did use that
296
00:26:49.640 --> 00:26:56.880
on other individuals, but the Chang
was not into the aquandet or the pretty
297
00:26:56.960 --> 00:27:00.880
hair. I didn't have the big
hair. I just had the long hair,
298
00:27:02.079 --> 00:27:04.559
and I wanted to make sure that
my hair was like me, my
299
00:27:04.759 --> 00:27:10.680
friend, long and strong, no
split in. So for those of you
300
00:27:11.119 --> 00:27:15.559
who have never seen the Chang before, you can picture Chang's hair like Axel
301
00:27:15.720 --> 00:27:21.519
Rose back in the nineteen eighty eight
album Appetite for Destruction. That's how your
302
00:27:21.559 --> 00:27:25.240
hair was. Well, it wasn't
red, more like Rapunzel. So whenever
303
00:27:25.359 --> 00:27:27.559
I you know, I read no, I mean the flat, you know,
304
00:27:27.640 --> 00:27:30.799
more like the flat, and then
you use the probably a lot of
305
00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:36.480
Bandama's back. Then, deep down
inside, I know Chang, you wanted
306
00:27:36.519 --> 00:27:38.599
to look like Axel. No,
Axel wanted to look like me. And
307
00:27:38.759 --> 00:27:42.279
I think he caught my I think
I caught his eye when he threw that
308
00:27:42.400 --> 00:27:48.240
cigarette at my white chuck Son Sunset
Boulevard in nineteen eighty seven. You're still
309
00:27:48.319 --> 00:27:51.680
bitter. I want you to do. So they'll want you to tuck straight
310
00:27:51.720 --> 00:27:56.240
into the microphone and tell Axel how
sorry you are for wanting to kick his
311
00:27:56.319 --> 00:28:00.599
butt that day. Now, Ax, I'll call him Ax because we're friends.
312
00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:03.400
So I want to tell you,
I really enjoy all your music.
313
00:28:03.000 --> 00:28:07.559
I didn't care for your bad attitude
during some of the concerts and your fits
314
00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:11.799
and your hissy fits. I really
didn't appreciate the time that you looked at
315
00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:18.039
me and throw a lit cigarette at
my brand new white Chuck Taylor's on Sunset
316
00:28:18.079 --> 00:28:23.160
Boulevard. You know, I don't
I really don't like that you didn't even
317
00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:30.119
apologize, and that you're probably as
tall as my hip back there, and
318
00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:33.319
I'm sure do you guys just call
it a day and just let by gones
319
00:28:33.359 --> 00:28:36.240
be by. Ax. I'm gonna
tell you what, Axel, I'm gonna
320
00:28:36.319 --> 00:28:38.599
let it, let it go now, for all these years, I'm not
321
00:28:38.680 --> 00:28:41.759
going to call you a whole rose
anymore. I'm just gonna call you,
322
00:28:42.200 --> 00:28:47.119
Hey, there's that guy. That's
it. There's that guy. There's my
323
00:28:47.200 --> 00:28:49.599
apology. That's my apology. So
you're gonna get a all right if you
324
00:28:49.640 --> 00:28:52.440
just joined us here back to the
eighties, we are talking about what the
325
00:28:52.599 --> 00:28:57.160
eighties meant and mean still to this
day to us. There was a lot
326
00:28:57.200 --> 00:29:00.720
of people who commented, and I
wanted to read some of their names and
327
00:29:00.839 --> 00:29:03.640
along with their answers. But you
know, I do want to give a
328
00:29:03.759 --> 00:29:07.799
special shout out before we do that
to all the people from Ukraine. We
329
00:29:08.119 --> 00:29:12.240
all know what's going on. They
must just be living in fear right now
330
00:29:12.400 --> 00:29:17.119
and here and back to the eighties. Our main goal is to crack a
331
00:29:17.240 --> 00:29:19.000
smile in your face and in your
heart. And if we could do that,
332
00:29:19.160 --> 00:29:22.680
we've accomplished our goal. You know, A big shout out to you
333
00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:32.319
guys now. Kimberly Bronk Peltier or
a Pelletier said they were unforgettable memories where
334
00:29:32.400 --> 00:29:37.160
kids could be kids. Kids today, unfortunately, are expected to be older
335
00:29:37.240 --> 00:29:41.000
than they are in school. In
life. They don't play outside or play
336
00:29:41.079 --> 00:29:44.799
with toys, and she says that
when her daughter turned ten, she wanted
337
00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:48.839
to get rid of her toys.
When she asked her why, she said,
338
00:29:48.920 --> 00:29:52.960
nobody plays with toys in my grade. Growing up in the eighties,
339
00:29:52.440 --> 00:29:56.400
she says, I didn't have to
worry about any of that. I was
340
00:29:56.480 --> 00:30:00.519
playing games with toys well into her
teens. She said, my parents weren't
341
00:30:00.519 --> 00:30:06.400
afraid to turn the TV on at
ten in the morning and having widely inappropriate
342
00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:10.680
programming on TV. There is no
family TV to watch anymore. She says
343
00:30:10.720 --> 00:30:15.240
she remembers watching TV together as a
family and those are some of the best
344
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:19.119
memories of her life. It's such
such a different world we live in now,
345
00:30:19.640 --> 00:30:22.319
Kimberly, A big shout out to
you, and you're absolutely right.
346
00:30:22.359 --> 00:30:27.440
And there goes that word that you
mentioned family, How important, how important
347
00:30:27.599 --> 00:30:32.599
we had it back then with family. We're missing that essence nowadays to a
348
00:30:32.680 --> 00:30:37.440
certain degree. Some households still hold
onto it, but in a sense,
349
00:30:37.400 --> 00:30:44.119
I'd say maybe forty percent of society
has lost that. Shanna Reid says,
350
00:30:44.559 --> 00:30:49.799
my childhood going skating with friends,
Saturday mornings at Grandma's waffles, watching the
351
00:30:49.960 --> 00:30:55.400
Smurfs, and her favorite walkman,
Tom Patrick. Ryan said, been in
352
00:30:55.480 --> 00:31:00.079
college and working at college radio station, constantly surrounded by eighties music. Way
353
00:31:00.160 --> 00:31:03.640
to Go, Tom, Where to
Go? My brother James Sorrentino said,
354
00:31:03.720 --> 00:31:07.519
one of the greatest decades to grow
up in, from music to clothes.
355
00:31:07.720 --> 00:31:12.519
And let's not forget about the hair
chang. Oh, let's not forget about
356
00:31:12.559 --> 00:31:17.200
the hair. The eighties is when
you think of the eighties, you think
357
00:31:17.240 --> 00:31:19.200
of the fashion, you think of
the hair, and you think of the
358
00:31:19.480 --> 00:31:26.039
music, and all of that can
be transpired onto TV. Look how many
359
00:31:26.079 --> 00:31:32.079
TV shows grabbed that beat in rand
was it? TV was everywhere? You
360
00:31:32.200 --> 00:31:37.599
know. I really liked a lot
of not all, a lot of the
361
00:31:37.759 --> 00:31:41.599
hairstyles that the girls had back then
when they kept it within reason, because
362
00:31:41.680 --> 00:31:45.839
then you got some that the hair
was so big because their hair's longer,
363
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:48.480
right, so that long hair,
they can poof it up as big as
364
00:31:48.480 --> 00:31:52.920
they want, so, but within
reason. A lot of that was nice,
365
00:31:52.000 --> 00:31:56.279
you know, feathered. And I
do notice that they used to take
366
00:31:56.319 --> 00:32:00.680
care of themselves so much. TV
started all those hairs, my brother,
367
00:32:00.799 --> 00:32:05.799
you got that right. Michael James
Wyatt Reynolds says the best Halloween's best Christmas
368
00:32:05.960 --> 00:32:09.839
is, best music, best movies, the greatest decade of the twentieth century.
369
00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:15.759
Christina Kreshan says, bright colors,
big hair, great music, innocence
370
00:32:16.000 --> 00:32:22.359
and youth. And we got tons
of those. But I want to,
371
00:32:23.319 --> 00:32:28.119
yeah, yep now when I've jumped
over to one of them in particular,
372
00:32:28.200 --> 00:32:30.559
and that's Rob Cookenaer. We gave
him a special shout out. In the
373
00:32:30.599 --> 00:32:36.440
beginning of the show, he said, it's when technology and personal entertainment were
374
00:32:36.599 --> 00:32:40.680
high tech enough for us to enjoy, but not so far along that it
375
00:32:40.839 --> 00:32:45.960
just became a device. He says, I mean Sony Walkman's Swatch, watches,
376
00:32:46.000 --> 00:32:52.519
Atari's Arcade games, and even home
TVs and stereos worked just fine and
377
00:32:52.680 --> 00:32:58.839
still had personality even in their bulkiness
and low tech buttons or dials. Those
378
00:32:58.960 --> 00:33:01.160
all gave them a look can feel
that we can remember as a part of
379
00:33:01.240 --> 00:33:07.839
our Friday night of inserting cassette tapes
holding the speaker to our home phone too,
380
00:33:07.039 --> 00:33:12.160
so our friends remember this, holding
the home phone next to the speakers
381
00:33:12.160 --> 00:33:15.359
so our friends could hear a song
that we'd you know, we would lay
382
00:33:15.359 --> 00:33:17.559
on the floor sometimes, well yeah, sometimes I would do that. Or
383
00:33:17.680 --> 00:33:23.400
sometimes I would just take the ghetto
blaster and take it to my friend's house
384
00:33:23.440 --> 00:33:28.119
and play my mixtapes or what have
you, and putting the ghetto blaster on
385
00:33:28.200 --> 00:33:30.519
the front porch and just blasting your
tunes for the whole neighborhood. Yeah,
386
00:33:30.680 --> 00:33:36.839
you know, I had I'll never
forget I had a Lasnic Lasnic ghetto blaster
387
00:33:37.160 --> 00:33:39.039
back then. There was a it
was a pretty cool thing to have.
388
00:33:39.359 --> 00:33:44.119
He continues on. He says eighties
tech head personality and thinks to their low
389
00:33:44.200 --> 00:33:51.480
tech nous and we miss unfolding the
cassettes and CD inserts or record inserts in
390
00:33:51.559 --> 00:33:55.279
the band pictures and lyrics. He
says, Give me those buttons and dials
391
00:33:55.559 --> 00:34:00.160
and my cassettes any day, and
a number two pen soul, and a
392
00:34:00.279 --> 00:34:04.880
number two pencil for when that cassette
got stuck. That's right, that's right,
393
00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:07.759
brother, But it's not you forget
that. Yeah, some of the
394
00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:12.440
some of the smallest things that we
used to take for granted every day are
395
00:34:12.800 --> 00:34:16.760
those things that even though we are
filled with technology today that we have touchscreens
396
00:34:17.079 --> 00:34:22.400
now we just swipe to hear something
else or to see another page. I
397
00:34:22.519 --> 00:34:28.960
want to say the minority. I'm
in the minority that still likes the old
398
00:34:29.199 --> 00:34:35.000
analog stuff, not because it was
better, but because of the sentimental value
399
00:34:35.039 --> 00:34:37.559
that it holds in my heart.
But you could say some people would say
400
00:34:37.639 --> 00:34:43.119
the same thing about albums. Some
people would probably say the same thing about
401
00:34:44.159 --> 00:34:51.199
h DVD players. But even before
you know what I mean, people would
402
00:34:51.239 --> 00:34:54.880
feel that way about a tracks.
I think whatever people got their kicks on,
403
00:34:55.159 --> 00:35:00.320
is always going to hold true and
special in their heart as many years
404
00:35:00.360 --> 00:35:05.599
that pass them, because it's always
going to be something that's going to take
405
00:35:05.760 --> 00:35:10.239
everybody back to memory lane. Whether
it's a song, a device, a
406
00:35:10.400 --> 00:35:16.039
television show. Heck, maybe even
the make of a television you know what
407
00:35:16.119 --> 00:35:22.320
I'm saying. Maybe a type of
clothing may take you back, a certain
408
00:35:22.440 --> 00:35:28.320
song, an actor, an actress. There's so many things that we can
409
00:35:29.679 --> 00:35:32.079
hold so dear to our heart to
take them back, take us all the
410
00:35:32.159 --> 00:35:37.239
way back. Like I mentioned the
ghetto blaster. You know, back in
411
00:35:37.320 --> 00:35:42.079
the eighties, a ghetto blaster I
got bigger and bigger and bigger, and
412
00:35:42.960 --> 00:35:46.079
you know, sometimes you would see
two dudes carrying a ghetto blaster so they
413
00:35:46.119 --> 00:35:52.719
can go ahead and breakdancer, you
know, go to a backyard party and
414
00:35:52.840 --> 00:35:57.119
crank on some metal. I mean, the ghetto blaster was a very big
415
00:35:57.280 --> 00:36:05.559
part of we in the youth and
our music lives. People going riding their
416
00:36:05.599 --> 00:36:08.960
bikes on the beach carrying a ghetto
blaster or sometimes hanging that ghetto blaster on
417
00:36:09.079 --> 00:36:13.159
the handlebar or the bike you roll
down to the park. You know what
418
00:36:13.239 --> 00:36:15.320
I mean, You're gonna go hang
out with your friends, somebody's always taken
419
00:36:15.360 --> 00:36:19.800
a ghetto blaster, just the way
it was. I remember going down to
420
00:36:19.920 --> 00:36:23.599
Model Bello Park and hanging out and
there would be like maybe fifteen different ghetto
421
00:36:23.679 --> 00:36:29.360
blasters there with fifteen different crowds.
You know what I'm saying. People were
422
00:36:29.440 --> 00:36:34.280
cranking their tunes and everybody was kind
of getting along. The ghetto blaster.
423
00:36:35.000 --> 00:36:38.599
That was almost like today's cell phone
in a certain essence. Man, I
424
00:36:38.679 --> 00:36:44.039
can't go to a gathering without my
tunes. Grab the radio. Chris Kurtz
425
00:36:44.440 --> 00:36:47.159
says, the first eight years of
my life and the very best movies,
426
00:36:47.840 --> 00:36:52.960
video games, music of that era. The video stores, the arcades,
427
00:36:53.960 --> 00:36:58.559
the PiZZ sareas. Do you remember
the pizzareas now? Is it me?
428
00:36:59.159 --> 00:37:05.880
Or wasn't pizzerias? Weren't pizzeria's much
better? Back then? We had Godfather's
429
00:37:05.960 --> 00:37:12.599
Pizza. I remember Sergeant Pepperoni's pizza. We had a round table pizza.
430
00:37:12.840 --> 00:37:16.480
Now some of these we still have
today, but like Shaky Shaky's Pizza.
431
00:37:16.840 --> 00:37:23.599
But the taste was just phenomenal.
Where almost every pizzeria just tasted great.
432
00:37:23.760 --> 00:37:29.159
It had their own individual tastes.
Now what I recall about some of the
433
00:37:29.400 --> 00:37:36.280
pizzerias were they were family restaurants and
that is so much missed nowadays. And
434
00:37:36.400 --> 00:37:39.840
like I say, I'm very fortunate
because I was a young kid in the
435
00:37:39.920 --> 00:37:45.960
eighties and also a young father,
so my girls got to get a touch
436
00:37:45.039 --> 00:37:50.920
in the taste of what we hold
so dear in our heart. Being from
437
00:37:50.960 --> 00:37:54.239
the eighties, I'm very fortunate and
blessed to say that my children still got
438
00:37:54.320 --> 00:38:00.199
some of that nostalgic type lifestyle of
the eighties and pizzerias. Like I just
439
00:38:00.400 --> 00:38:05.760
say, stated, we're epic at
the time where you could take your whole
440
00:38:05.800 --> 00:38:08.559
family to eat. You can go
with your buddies or your bowling team or
441
00:38:08.920 --> 00:38:14.719
your softball teams, or watch Monday
night football and go eat. And you
442
00:38:14.840 --> 00:38:17.519
know, they had the bunch of
lunches. You could take your family to
443
00:38:17.639 --> 00:38:22.840
a pizza place at night and have
pizza wings, whatever you want. There
444
00:38:22.960 --> 00:38:27.239
was TVs, remember the video games
in there. They were just yeah,
445
00:38:27.400 --> 00:38:30.559
it was a fun place for the
family to eat. And everybody loves pizza,
446
00:38:31.079 --> 00:38:37.559
but I and everybody ordered pictures,
remember pictures of coke or pictures of
447
00:38:37.679 --> 00:38:40.760
beer for the adults. Bat and
you had mojo potatoes. Now, I
448
00:38:40.920 --> 00:38:45.360
recall going to a lot of the
old mom and pop pizzerias when I was
449
00:38:45.400 --> 00:38:51.159
growing up in a monvelo and we
used to go to this one called the
450
00:38:51.440 --> 00:38:54.719
Toes Pizza. Now, these cats
were straight out of New York, so
451
00:38:54.920 --> 00:39:00.559
their pizza was straight out of New
York. So but I kind of recall
452
00:39:00.679 --> 00:39:07.880
see more pizza establishments like that from
mom and pop vendors and businesses as opposed
453
00:39:07.880 --> 00:39:12.280
to what we see out here now. I don't see too too many.
454
00:39:12.719 --> 00:39:17.960
There are some out there, but
I don't think there is frequent as in
455
00:39:19.119 --> 00:39:22.559
each community as they used to be. Let me throw you way back.
456
00:39:22.800 --> 00:39:27.360
Do you remember that when we wanted
to order a pizza because we didn't have
457
00:39:27.480 --> 00:39:30.760
the internet, order on your phone, and do you wanted to try You
458
00:39:30.280 --> 00:39:34.199
ordered through your phone. But let's
say you wanted to try something else that
459
00:39:34.480 --> 00:39:37.880
wasn't your Dominoes, wasn't your Pizza
Hut or something like that. What do
460
00:39:38.000 --> 00:39:42.199
we do? We got the Yellow
Pages? And remember when we got to
461
00:39:42.360 --> 00:39:47.840
the peace and in the Yellow Pages
there were just countless pizzaias. And I
462
00:39:47.960 --> 00:39:53.760
can still still today. I can
smell, I have the scent, and
463
00:39:53.880 --> 00:39:59.599
I can picture the scent in my
mind of those yellow pages. Do you
464
00:39:59.639 --> 00:40:04.440
remember where they they said they had
this funky smell. But it was exciting
465
00:40:04.519 --> 00:40:07.079
when you you picked out your pizza
place. I remember, and we were
466
00:40:07.119 --> 00:40:13.519
in Downy End. There was always
a new pizzaia there and I remember Pizza
467
00:40:13.559 --> 00:40:16.400
Man. Remember Pizza Man. That
was like a change. Right now,
468
00:40:16.400 --> 00:40:20.880
that is very funny that that is
funny that you bring that up. I
469
00:40:21.000 --> 00:40:22.719
was just going to ask you.
We used to get our pizza a lot
470
00:40:22.760 --> 00:40:27.280
from Pizza Man. Remember it was
just the picture of the guy the side
471
00:40:27.280 --> 00:40:30.440
of his head. No, yes, no eyes, that's the Pizza Man.
472
00:40:30.599 --> 00:40:36.280
Yeah. And it was fantasic pizza. So they were big z.
473
00:40:37.159 --> 00:40:43.199
What happened with pizza? What happened
with pizza? Everything became tiny and expensive
474
00:40:43.679 --> 00:40:47.679
and before it was humongous and not
expensive. You could say the same about
475
00:40:47.760 --> 00:40:52.119
Taco Bell back in the eighties,
Taco Bell, when you ordered one of
476
00:40:52.199 --> 00:40:59.599
those Caucasian style of Mexican entrees,
the Burrito Supreme. And remember Taco Bell
477
00:40:59.719 --> 00:41:05.199
had one of my favorite dishes called
the cherrito. Yes, it was basically
478
00:41:05.320 --> 00:41:10.639
a burrito that was basically dipped in
the sauce and made like an end and
479
00:41:12.159 --> 00:41:17.400
now no, no, then some
Mexican stuff establishments called the Wet Moto and
480
00:41:17.599 --> 00:41:23.760
that's right, but you remember how
big the Burrito Supreme, And now you
481
00:41:23.840 --> 00:41:28.360
could eat that thing in two bites. It's like, yeah, it literally
482
00:41:28.920 --> 00:41:31.280
is the size of a top.
Yes, exactly, it's no bigger than
483
00:41:31.320 --> 00:41:36.880
those frozen burritos that they saved in
the at the supermarkets. And I gotta
484
00:41:37.000 --> 00:41:44.000
tell you why I'm really pissed off
at one particular Mexican food chain that nobody
485
00:41:44.039 --> 00:41:46.800
in the country or around the world's
gonna know unless you lived in Los Angeles,
486
00:41:46.960 --> 00:41:51.079
Okay, really, and that is
King Taco. And I'll tell you
487
00:41:51.079 --> 00:41:54.800
why I'm pissed with them, because
yes, they're still good. But I
488
00:41:54.960 --> 00:42:00.840
went to a King Taco in Pasadena, which because I was visiting there and
489
00:42:00.039 --> 00:42:05.159
I had never gone to them,
And when I got my burrito, it
490
00:42:05.320 --> 00:42:08.559
was the size of my palm.
WHOA. Now, granted I have big
491
00:42:08.679 --> 00:42:13.440
hands, but they're not that big. Okay, he said, yeah,
492
00:42:14.440 --> 00:42:19.119
But you know what I mean when
a burrito. You had a burrito that
493
00:42:19.199 --> 00:42:22.840
you could eat with two hands before, and now you get one that's really
494
00:42:22.960 --> 00:42:28.159
skinny and and just the size of
a of a Taco Bell Burrito Supreme.
495
00:42:28.679 --> 00:42:34.039
That was really really pissed off that
day. Plus they're expensive. But then
496
00:42:34.119 --> 00:42:42.719
again, you were in Pasadena,
californ Yeah, Hey, you weren't is
497
00:42:42.840 --> 00:42:46.440
Los Angeles? What can I get
you today? No, I wasn't the
498
00:42:46.639 --> 00:42:50.960
heart of the Back to the Future
land. Yes, you were like,
499
00:42:51.400 --> 00:42:54.719
Hi, welcome to King Taco mon
it's Craig. What can I get?
500
00:42:54.840 --> 00:43:05.199
Yeah? Difference exactly got that right? All right, we continue because Susan
501
00:43:05.400 --> 00:43:08.639
Freeman said, Wow, what didn't
it mean to me? The music,
502
00:43:08.840 --> 00:43:13.440
the clothes, the makeup, you
name it. That leg that decade will
503
00:43:13.480 --> 00:43:17.400
live on forever. Kate Farr said, a time when pop culture was willing
504
00:43:17.599 --> 00:43:23.480
to be upbeat and colorful. Grunge
later on and Emo destroyed it, and
505
00:43:23.639 --> 00:43:28.320
it's never really bounced back. And
I think she's got a point. You
506
00:43:28.400 --> 00:43:35.119
know what made to a certain degree. I wouldn't say that grunge us destroyed.
507
00:43:35.159 --> 00:43:38.159
That would say it destroy would say
pretty metal, glam metal, Oh
508
00:43:38.880 --> 00:43:44.039
music, grunge destroyed it? What's
the nineties? Listen to me? Listen
509
00:43:44.079 --> 00:43:46.159
to it was over? Nirvana killed
it. No, We'll come on,
510
00:43:46.639 --> 00:43:50.599
rich hater, don't be a hater
of the grunge. Oh, it killed
511
00:43:50.639 --> 00:43:54.559
it, It killed it. Grunge
music is hard seventies early eighties rock and
512
00:43:54.679 --> 00:44:00.199
roll, with everybody wearing a flannel
shirt like the dude for brawny pa Apri
513
00:44:00.320 --> 00:44:05.679
towels. That's the only difference between
growth coming out of destroyed it. No
514
00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:09.000
emol, No, the only thing
that emo. You know what was emil?
515
00:44:09.559 --> 00:44:16.599
That pretty metal like poison and wo
you guys would kill you. Gotta
516
00:44:16.639 --> 00:44:30.280
go check out the Ah please faster, Pussycat faster what. I don't get
517
00:44:30.360 --> 00:44:32.119
us started with that. Don't get
us start. However, I am not
518
00:44:32.239 --> 00:44:36.440
a hater. I'm not a hater
of the pretty, pretty metal either,
519
00:44:36.880 --> 00:44:42.840
because I do love all music.
I am an enjoyer of all music rather
520
00:44:42.960 --> 00:44:49.679
than a dick hater. I bet
you love well, you go you love
521
00:44:49.800 --> 00:44:58.079
Sebastian Bok. I bet you Tascannell
probably want a naked autograph Sebastian Bock before
522
00:44:58.119 --> 00:45:01.639
the alcohol. No, you you
are probably thinking of the mad boy.
523
00:45:01.960 --> 00:45:06.440
You're thinking of the man boy.
I'm not that. Man boy has a
524
00:45:06.559 --> 00:45:10.559
life size poster of Miles Kennedy.
Yes, the ceiling of his bedroom.
525
00:45:10.679 --> 00:45:13.679
Yeah, big shout out to you, man boy. You know who you
526
00:45:13.800 --> 00:45:16.400
are. We know who you are. We know it. Now back back
527
00:45:16.440 --> 00:45:21.559
to the topic, all right,
so please at hand. Dominic Salazar said,
528
00:45:21.679 --> 00:45:25.840
look, no, Facebook didn't need
it. Back then, things were
529
00:45:27.039 --> 00:45:30.480
more up close. If you like
someone, you just confront them and say
530
00:45:30.519 --> 00:45:34.039
it, plain and simple. And
the music. I could start a long
531
00:45:34.159 --> 00:45:38.519
story in regards to the music.
It was the best era. Now,
532
00:45:38.639 --> 00:45:42.880
the eighties, I think is the
last era where you could write love notes
533
00:45:42.920 --> 00:45:45.440
to each other. When people were
doing that. Yes, now everybody just
534
00:45:45.599 --> 00:45:49.679
you could text somebody something, you
could you you could send Dick picks.
535
00:45:49.760 --> 00:45:52.280
Nowadays, you couldn't do that back
in the eighties. We hear, we
536
00:45:52.440 --> 00:45:57.519
hear, do not promote or condoned
sending of any kind of those picks.
537
00:45:57.800 --> 00:46:01.360
Well, you know it's Dick Nix
and Dick saw Argent, Richard, Richard
538
00:46:01.400 --> 00:46:06.039
Pick, you know, Richard,
Richard Belzer. I mean, you name
539
00:46:06.119 --> 00:46:08.639
it. There's so many. You
know, Richard Blade, you know,
540
00:46:08.880 --> 00:46:13.800
Come on, bro, this is
back to the eighties radio. We come
541
00:46:13.880 --> 00:46:19.320
back. There's more. What do
the eighties mean to you? Don't go
542
00:46:19.360 --> 00:46:23.440
away? No, if it's totally
tubular, red or awesome, needs on
543
00:46:23.800 --> 00:46:30.960
back to the eighties school money.
Now, hey, this is not a
544
00:46:30.079 --> 00:46:35.039
test. This is rock and roll
time. The rocket from the Delta to
545
00:46:35.119 --> 00:46:37.599
the DMZ. Is that me?
Or does that sound like an Elvis pressing
546
00:46:37.639 --> 00:46:42.280
movie? Vivo da nan oh,
Vivo da nan. Don't hang me,
547
00:46:42.440 --> 00:46:45.519
don't hang me. We don't get
a roban hang meer. Hey, it's
548
00:46:45.519 --> 00:46:51.719
a little too early for being that
loud. Hey too late. And now
549
00:46:52.119 --> 00:47:00.800
back to the eighties with Tiscano and
Chang. Welcome back to back to the
550
00:47:00.920 --> 00:47:05.039
eighties. This is Tiscano with Jiang
Chang. Here we are talking about the
551
00:47:05.239 --> 00:47:09.400
topic of what did the nineteen eighties
mean to you? Good? Bad?
552
00:47:09.960 --> 00:47:15.239
Or? In the middle me and
Tiscano, I've already dove into what the
553
00:47:15.840 --> 00:47:22.280
eighties meant to us. Tiscano,
the ADL the eighties man was like an
554
00:47:22.440 --> 00:47:29.400
ADL dark type for me, bro
I was just out of jail and I
555
00:47:29.559 --> 00:47:34.480
was only four. You know the
number one thing that everybody agreed on.
556
00:47:34.800 --> 00:47:39.079
And I didn't have one single person
say you know something negative about the eighties.
557
00:47:39.599 --> 00:47:43.960
Everything was positive, but the number
one, I would say, the
558
00:47:44.320 --> 00:47:50.480
factor that unites us all the music. Yeah, it's music. Everybody loves
559
00:47:51.320 --> 00:47:55.639
eighties music, right, whether you
believe like me, video killed the radio
560
00:48:00.480 --> 00:48:07.360
or you believed like Tisconnell, where
videos were better than listening to somebody on
561
00:48:07.400 --> 00:48:09.639
the radio and listening No, I
never said that, no way, No,
562
00:48:10.639 --> 00:48:17.920
you never said that, Yes you
did. No I don't because no,
563
00:48:19.159 --> 00:48:22.000
I would never say that, because
that'd be a blatant lie. No.
564
00:48:23.079 --> 00:48:27.480
I did love watching videos on MTV. Of course they did. I
565
00:48:27.559 --> 00:48:32.039
don't think there are too many people
except for Dick Haytor and his friends that
566
00:48:32.360 --> 00:48:37.719
didn't like watching MTV. Now,
look, did it end up killing the
567
00:48:37.880 --> 00:48:43.159
radio star at the end? Well, I can tell you that it probably
568
00:48:43.280 --> 00:48:51.840
did, absolutely because it was and
the radio and you know what, the
569
00:48:52.039 --> 00:48:54.800
radio business as well. It also
killed the radio business as well. So
570
00:48:55.599 --> 00:49:00.719
did bands not care more about what
they looked like? Of course on screen
571
00:49:00.960 --> 00:49:05.920
that you remember putting out in you
remember a lot of that wasn't even the
572
00:49:06.000 --> 00:49:13.159
bands. It was the stinking labels
and the corporate the corporate executives that the
573
00:49:13.280 --> 00:49:16.599
record Oh, they know more than
the actual fans and what they want,
574
00:49:17.199 --> 00:49:23.760
and they came along and ruined everything
for everybody. Then music changed or the
575
00:49:23.880 --> 00:49:27.480
worst. But yeah, so the
number one thing that we all have in
576
00:49:27.599 --> 00:49:34.840
common is we all loved the music
and whether it came out of a device,
577
00:49:35.000 --> 00:49:38.880
an eight track, a cassette,
an album, a ghetto loser,
578
00:49:39.159 --> 00:49:45.719
whether it came out of the radio
or a walkman, the whole essence of
579
00:49:45.800 --> 00:49:50.559
the eighties is that vibe of music. Right, and it has died.
580
00:49:50.960 --> 00:49:52.599
Yeah, I truly agree with you
when that one. It has died.
581
00:49:52.920 --> 00:49:57.840
As a matter of fact, Look
at look at the shape terrestrial radio is
582
00:49:57.920 --> 00:50:01.519
in uh Los Angeles. It's a
disgrace, man, It's a disgrace,
583
00:50:01.920 --> 00:50:07.440
you know. But then then that's
why your beautiful listeners out there get such
584
00:50:07.519 --> 00:50:12.480
a great show just like here it
back to the eighties by a couple of
585
00:50:12.559 --> 00:50:19.159
goons right here that are from the
past life famous radio jobs. Where else
586
00:50:19.440 --> 00:50:23.679
are you going to hear the content
that you hear here? And where else
587
00:50:23.880 --> 00:50:30.440
that you're going to feel more nostalgia
than here? Back to the eighties radio?
588
00:50:30.559 --> 00:50:36.079
There's nowhere nowhere because nobody is going
to say what we say and the
589
00:50:36.239 --> 00:50:38.360
way we say it. That's right. I'm tooting my own horn, that's
590
00:50:38.440 --> 00:50:44.119
right. I do. If you
have a special topic that you'd like to
591
00:50:44.760 --> 00:50:46.679
well share with us here back to
the eighties, and you would like for
592
00:50:46.840 --> 00:50:51.280
us to discuss that on the show, go ahead and send us a note
593
00:50:51.480 --> 00:50:55.800
at our Facebook page, through an
instant message or a direct message, and
594
00:50:57.000 --> 00:51:00.159
we'd love to talk about the topic
that you'd like you're on the show.
595
00:51:00.519 --> 00:51:05.599
I also want to let you guys
know that we do have a Patreon page
596
00:51:05.679 --> 00:51:09.519
that we'd like to encourage you to
go over. We want to make you
597
00:51:09.920 --> 00:51:16.000
part of the show, and there's
also some levels there that depending on the
598
00:51:16.039 --> 00:51:21.480
amount that you're able to give,
you know, you get something in return.
599
00:51:21.679 --> 00:51:24.639
Obviously for that, we are going
to be making. As we mentioned
600
00:51:24.760 --> 00:51:29.239
last week, we're going to be
making just some slight changes to the show.
601
00:51:29.760 --> 00:51:32.679
Nothing really big, so don't worry. The cheesy sketches are going to
602
00:51:32.719 --> 00:51:36.639
always remain in the beginning of the
show, but I do I do want
603
00:51:36.639 --> 00:51:39.760
to let you know that there are
some small changes because we do want to
604
00:51:39.840 --> 00:51:45.599
give something back to the community and
we do want to be interviewing people that
605
00:51:45.719 --> 00:51:50.000
can help us eighties fans at least
maybe once a month, and we're going
606
00:51:50.039 --> 00:51:54.119
to be doing something special with a
guest as well. We are also going
607
00:51:54.199 --> 00:52:00.800
to be planning some special stuff with
you in person. Once we get all
608
00:52:00.840 --> 00:52:06.480
this COVID madness and mask mandates out
of here if no World War three gets
609
00:52:06.519 --> 00:52:09.159
started. Of course, Chang,
there's some stuff that we want to do
610
00:52:09.400 --> 00:52:13.480
live, and we're going to be
able to do some live stuff. Stuff
611
00:52:13.639 --> 00:52:20.159
at the Totally eighties barring Grill in
the City of Fullerton and some other places
612
00:52:20.199 --> 00:52:23.599
we're going to be going live with
and hopefully Chang by then you're going to
613
00:52:23.679 --> 00:52:27.880
be here in La County. As
soon as I know these dates, I
614
00:52:28.039 --> 00:52:30.960
will do exactly what I have to
do, and I we have to get
615
00:52:30.000 --> 00:52:35.559
down there because there's nothing better than
going to an event like that and meeting
616
00:52:36.320 --> 00:52:39.079
the people that listen to us and
putting a smile on your face, not
617
00:52:39.239 --> 00:52:43.119
only from Afar, but right there
as we meet, because that's right,
618
00:52:43.760 --> 00:52:45.440
that's our model right here with back
to the eighties. We want to make
619
00:52:45.480 --> 00:52:49.719
you feel better than you did when
you cranked us on. We want to
620
00:52:49.800 --> 00:52:54.440
make you feel better than you did
maybe during this week or something happened at
621
00:52:54.480 --> 00:52:59.320
work, maybe you're at home and
you're a little stressed out with your husband,
622
00:52:59.440 --> 00:53:02.119
your spy, with your kids.
You know, we want to be
623
00:53:02.280 --> 00:53:07.280
those voices that you turn on,
and we're going to turn you onto a
624
00:53:07.360 --> 00:53:10.079
smile because that's what makes the world
go around a smile. You can't be
625
00:53:10.239 --> 00:53:15.400
progressive and positive if you adn't smile
on my brother. So everybody out there,
626
00:53:15.480 --> 00:53:17.960
you know, we hear our motel
at to scott and chain back to
627
00:53:19.000 --> 00:53:22.360
the eighties. We want to give
back to all of you for giving to
628
00:53:22.519 --> 00:53:24.679
us your ears. We want to
make you smile. You know, hey,
629
00:53:24.840 --> 00:53:29.079
right now in life, this is
a very trying time. We don't
630
00:53:29.079 --> 00:53:32.159
know what the heck is going to
happen. We have a bunch of cyclopaths
631
00:53:32.320 --> 00:53:37.079
running the countries, and we don't
know if we're about to embark on World
632
00:53:37.119 --> 00:53:42.360
War three. You know, maybe
maybe it won't be that bad if we
633
00:53:42.480 --> 00:53:46.760
all can pray and put our hands
together and come up with a better way
634
00:53:46.800 --> 00:53:51.559
of life to where it's not going
to blow up that way, Hopefully whoever
635
00:53:51.760 --> 00:53:54.679
is in charge of our country does
what they have to do to not have
636
00:53:54.920 --> 00:53:59.440
that happen. And when you're out
there, just every day, whether it
637
00:53:59.519 --> 00:54:02.360
be a noble a downer, or
maybe you had a bad day of work,
638
00:54:04.199 --> 00:54:07.119
maybe you had an argument with your
spouse, family member, maybe the
639
00:54:07.199 --> 00:54:12.079
kids aren't listening, maybe you had
a bad day in traffic. We want
640
00:54:12.199 --> 00:54:16.360
you to tune on to us and
just smile because everybody needs to smile.
641
00:54:17.039 --> 00:54:22.440
If me and Tiscono could make you
smile every time you crank us on,
642
00:54:22.239 --> 00:54:24.920
that's going to help you get through
your day. To take on whatever.
643
00:54:25.320 --> 00:54:31.519
And remember, whatever you're going through
is just a trial. You know,
644
00:54:31.800 --> 00:54:35.480
whether you win it or you lose
it, you went through that trial.
645
00:54:35.639 --> 00:54:40.199
The number one thing you come out
of it is wisdom to remember, Tiscano
646
00:54:40.280 --> 00:54:44.599
and Chang back to the eighties.
We want to make you smile and we
647
00:54:44.920 --> 00:54:47.760
want to get you through life.
So you leave this place a lot wiser
648
00:54:49.199 --> 00:54:51.920
than you did when you got here. You know what I'm saying, tisconod,
649
00:54:52.079 --> 00:54:54.000
you know what time it is right
now, Chang, it is time
650
00:54:55.239 --> 00:55:00.800
to let the world know what made
us angry back in the eighties. But
651
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:05.719
in honor of the most wondrous Chang, we now call them changers. So,
652
00:55:05.960 --> 00:55:10.440
Chang, what made you changry back
in the nineteen eighties. You know
653
00:55:10.519 --> 00:55:17.320
what got meat changry back in the
nineteen eighties. What's scary videos? Well,
654
00:55:17.400 --> 00:55:21.639
you know what got meat changry back
in the nineteen eighties. Going to
655
00:55:21.800 --> 00:55:27.159
your favorite burger place and finding out
it was out of business. You know
656
00:55:27.239 --> 00:55:30.599
what got meat changry back in the
nineteen eighties. Pioneer chicken. Oh,
657
00:55:30.920 --> 00:55:35.800
I love pioneered. You know what
got me changery back in the eighties?
658
00:55:36.239 --> 00:55:39.280
No refills on your coat. I
think for every free refill you had to
659
00:55:39.320 --> 00:55:45.079
come back with a flannel shirt and
say that grunge music kicked ass. I
660
00:55:45.159 --> 00:55:52.440
think that's when that started. In
nineteen eighty eight, Taco Bell launched the
661
00:55:52.880 --> 00:55:57.599
all you can drink That's right,
nineteen eighty eight, So it is an
662
00:55:57.639 --> 00:56:01.039
eighties thing. Free refills nineteen eighty
eight, launched by Taco Bell. Thank
663
00:56:01.079 --> 00:56:05.559
you, Taco Bell, Thank you. You know what got me changry back
664
00:56:05.599 --> 00:56:09.159

00:56:09.239 --> 00:56:15.440

I release you to another changtastic weekend, I want you to all remember,
703
00:59:25.400 --> 00:59:30.639

706
00:59:39.119 --> 00:59:44.519
And remember everybody out there, just
because we have one individual that's a
707
00:59:44.639 --> 00:59:47.679
madman does not mean that we all
need to react in a madman form.
708
00:59:49.440 --> 00:59:52.840
We are all one race, the
human race. Let's remember that at all
709
00:59:52.960 --> 00:59:58.039
times, stand up for something that
is bigger than you. Stand up for
710
00:59:58.159 --> 01:00:00.920
somebody that can stand up for them. Elves, stand up for each other
711
01:00:01.039 --> 01:00:07.800
because remember, the only way through
and too prosperity is through unity. So
712
01:00:08.000 --> 01:00:13.280
I'll go out there and be the
best that you can be and always wear
713
01:00:13.320 --> 01:00:16.679
a smile. Tomorrow is not promised, so kick ass and appreciate today.
714
01:00:17.119 --> 01:00:22.079
