November 09, 2023Trivial Pursuit

In 1981, a new game came along where rolling the dice and moving your piece was secondary to your knowledge of trivia and pop culture. In this Backtrack, we’re going around the board collecting pie pieces as we look back on the history of Trivial Pursuit!

October 12, 2023Eddie Murphy: Delirious
In the early ’80s, if you were a fan of standup comedy, or SNL, or just paying attention to pop culture at all, then you know Eddie Murphy’s star was on the rise.
