Happened In the 90's hosted by Steve and Matt picks a day, any day, and then goes back in time to that magical decade we all know and love the 90's, to revisit episodes of tv, movies that premiered, or cultural events that occurred on that day in the 90's.  

This week Matt and Steve talk a little bit about the movie Tommy Boy and some fun facts that have come out since.  They also talk a little football even though we're months away from the season.

Then we're speeding down the 90's highway to March 31st in the 90s.
