Guest: Francesco Marciuliano --

We dive into the depths of dark humor while dissecting the 1989 cult classic, Heathers. How Very! Then ... what don't we discuss? Chit chat about the The Brady Bunch, Laff-a-Lympics, Marathon candy bars, Don Ho, Def Leppard, and cats in vests? Those topics only scratch the surface of this episode. Listen in!

Guest: Cynthia Mance **

We geek out over Pretty in Pink and learn we're both Team Duckie and thought Andie's prom dress was hideous. Then we discuss Duran Duran's presence in the mega-video for Band Aid's "Do They Know it's Christmas?" Plus, we wonder who forked over major moolah for skin-tight Gloria Vanderbilt or Guess jeans. Oh, and there's a bit of cat chat -- of course.

When Cynthia (lucky dog) got to meet Duran Duran:

Daniel and I pull up a couple of bar stools at the mythical Regal Beagle and recall the slapstick-y goodness of Three's Company. Then, do you remember the year the Happy Meal was introduced? Finally, we decide Fonzie was made of magic. Oh, and there's cat chat ... naturally.

Guest: Stacy Pershall **

We step back into 1983 to discuss The Day After, the iconic TV movie that depicts the devastation of nuclear holocaust on small-town Kansas residents. Then we recall the epic, cheesy drama of ABC After School Specials. Oh, and who can deny the impact of music during our high school years? And of always, there's kitty-cat chat.

We compare notes on teenage babysitting gigs and discover I was sorely underpaid. Then we fondly recall family vacations and realize arcades seemed much bigger back then. And then, as always, there's some kitty-cat chat. Listen in!

We get down with some girl talk about slumber parties, including: the glories of blanket forts, prank calls, and Doritos for breakfast. Then, can Jessica (or you) pick the body parts that are included the classic Operation game? Plus, we share details about kids' money-making schemes ... and some cat chat.

Architect and "Cat Tower King," Mario Arbore, and I get chatty about The Breakfast Club. Then Mario shares a Golden Girls connection story that involves hangovers and the hora dance.

Cat style expert Kate Benjamin and I get goofy about her crazy childhood sticker, lip gloss, shoelace collections ... and the disastrous accident with the nail polish remover. Then we recall the wonder that was the Footloose soundtrack and have no idea how we ever had that kind of dancing energy. And were you a note passer? We were. There's cat talk, too. Listen in!
