I travel solo back to 1981 for Kurt Russell's 10th Disney film for the surprisingly well-done animated classic, The Fox and the Hound in this episode of Retromade. With its heavy-hitting voice cast, poignant music, and heartwarming story, it's a must re-visit.

Plus, we talk the heyday of MTV; you don't want to miss it!

In this episode of Retromade, I’m breaking the rules by going back beyond the 80s a bit to 1979 as well as flying solo to commemorate Patrick Swayze's first EVER movie role - a campy roller-disco musical comedy.

Skatetown U.S.A. captured something special with its look, feel, & impossible to ignore soundtrack. I think you owe it to yourself to watch it if you haven't seen it.

Welcome to Retromade; your pop culture rewind. 

In this biweekly show, I'll be exploring the best of the 80s & 90s in a "VHS time capsule" of sorts. I'll be joined by totally awesome guests to cover iconic movies of the time grouped in thematic seasons (stay tuned for the Season 1 theme). As we break down the movie, we also explore the moments that shaped our childhoods - the TV shows, music, fashion, cartoons, toys, and other cultural trends that defined the year in which each movie was released.

Movie themes range from John Hughes to mob movies to ridiculous (but fun) action flicks, to cult-classics. The unforgettable TV shows include the likes of The Cosby Show, Cheers, The Golden Girls, Friends, and Seinfeld. We’ll discuss why these blasts from the past continue to resonate with us today.

And remember…be kind, rewind.
