That 80s Show SA episodes

September 29, 2023 That 80s Show | What do Paulo and Germany have in common | The best foreign movies of the 80s | The Burt Reynolds love-in continues.
Paulo convinces Dori to love Italo-Disco via Germany, it kind of works.
We then take a look at the best foreign films of the 80s - Paulo is let down by Kiss of the Spider Woman and Dori has seen most of them.
We get excited about upcoming 80s documentaries and Paulo imagines a Cabbage Patch kid in Madonna's birth canal.

September 22, 2023 That 80s Show | Freddy Mercury's garden door upset Brian May | New Order, a floppy disk and childish giggles | Burt Reynolds kept making the same movie
Hopefully it's a better week for that 80s Show than it's been for That 70s Show and appropriately Dori takes us to the 90s.
We talk about 80s things selling for a lot of money, 80s things that lost a lot of money, a movie that may or may not have been broadcast on Red Nose Day, Burt Reynolds being inappropriate with Loni Anderson and how Priscilla Presley inspired Depeche Mode.

September 07, 2023 That 80s Show | Hate Biff Tannen, Love Tom Wilson | A Neverending Tik Tok | Bardcore from the (14)80s
Paulo is back in the bedroom - after his nightmare about Jamie Lee Curtis, this week he has a problem with a Delorean bed.

How does Tom Wilson - the guy who played uber-bully, Biff Tannen - handle all the questions about BBTF? Through song.

When we called ourselves That 80s Show, we didn't specify the 1980s as we go back a few hundred years to discover Bardcore and Dori deciphers your personality based on your favourite 80s band.

Regarding the Bardcore tracks we in no way intend to derive income from other people's work - we want to bring it to a new audience.

September 01, 2023 That 80s Show | Why does Paulo hate Jamie Lee Curtis? | The Chevy Chase rap album | Heavy Metal Parking Lot
Paulo hates talking about dreams - but he has to tell you about his vendetta against an 80s scream queen.
Chevy Chase is on everyone's hate list and he just cemented his place in ours after we discovered his album of (s)hits.
Terrible movie recommendations that includes Andrew Dice Clay and Alyssa Milano and another round of Two 80s Truths and a Lie.

August 25, 2023 That 80s Show | Pee Wee's Hoff House | Zepotha got us | Fritz the Cat and a rabbit hole | Luke Combs has a Fast Car
Paul Reuben passes away and Paulo links it to the Hoff - and honestly, truth is stranger than the fictional reality show we created.

Tik Tok has been duped by Zepotha, we're just here for the promise of Synth-Wave.

Dori visits the Costa Del Sol and finds a Town Called Malice, Paulo heads down a Fritz the Cat rabbit hole - which wasn't part of the sequel - and our new favourite song about a Fast Car, is our old favourite song about a Fast Car.

August 11, 2023 That 80s Show | Paulo quizzes The Quizmaster | Ryan Reynolds reboots ALF | Club Tropicana and the drinks aren't free
Due to no fault of his own, Paulo did not win an 80s quiz evening. He conducts an internal audit.

We examine the many reasons why Paulo and Ryan Reynolds would be best friends, a shared love of ALF is one of them.

Dori has a very witchy movie review, we stalk Andrew Ridgeley AGAIN and we track down the real Club Tropicana...the reviews are mixed.

August 03, 2023 That 80s Show meets Simon Halfon
We just wanted to talk to someone involved in the Wham! documentary.

Instead we found Simon Halfon, a man who has played such a unique role in iconic albums from The Style Council, The Jam, Kim Wilde, Oasis and George Michael.

He tells us how he got involved in designing album covers, his friendship with Wham!, George Michael as an artist and how lunch with Andrew Ridgeley lead to the Netflix documentary.

Mr T, Rob Lowe, Demi Moore and a shirtless George Michael all in the opening few minutes - that's why were one of the best podcasts in Africa!

It was bound to happen, and it happened on our 150th movie recommendation. If you know, you know.

We look at some 80s controversies we forgot about and find a lovely story about an 80s Cow-reoke.

July 14, 2023 That 80s Show | There can never be too much Wham! | Sci-Fi Satire | Shaka Zulu and The Knight Rider.
With so much Wham! content around, Paulo and Dori have grabbed those teets and are milking George and Andrew for all they're worth.

Admit that we've all had that dream atleast once.

We also explore the finest in 80s Sci-Fi satire which may or may not include a lost Bee Gee brother.

More Wham! as we close out the show plus a look at the Shaka Zulu mini-series from the 80s which ends with a Hoff reference.

Of course it does.
