Rediscover The 80s

In this Memory Jogger Mystery episode, Jason and Wyatt randomly choose from a group of topics (without any prior show notes) and see how much they can remember. After sharing their experience, they can then cheat by using the Google machine to find anything they might have missed from memory.

The random topic chosen during the show is Superheroes! Jason and Wyatt jog their memories for the first time they remember the concept of superheroes. Strangely enough, it was through comic book pages but rather Saturday morning cartoons like Spider-man and His Amazing Friends and Superfriends. They also discuss watching reruns of TV shows like the 1966 Batman and The Incredible Hulk after school in the '80s. They also recall blockbusters movies that made an impact like the Christopher Reeve Superman movies and the 1989 Batman movie. Join us for a super topic and discussion!
