The Retro Club episodes:

June 28, 2023 42. Xanadu
“We've been painted by Michelangelo. Shakespeare's written sonnets about us. Beethoven's played music for us. We're not supposed to feel emotion or show any feelings. Muses are just supposed to inspire.”

Boy, I bet we had you fooled. Apparently we fooled ourselves, too, because how could we forget to cover this for our wedding anniversary?! We’ve mentioned it enough, it’s time to actually get into this 1980’s whirlwind of a movie, Xanadu!

May 17, 2023 37. Sleepaway Camp
“Eat shit and die, Ricky!
Eat shit and live, Bill.”

Are you ready for the summer?! Well, pack your bags because we’re headed to camp; 1983’s Sleepaway Camp, that is. Better steer clear of the new girl, though. We heard she has a bit of a temper …

“Things will happen in your life that you can't stop. But that's no reason to shut out the world.”

Ah, what we wouldn’t give to go back! There is nothing like the summers of our youth to teach us valuable lessons.
This week, we’re trying something a little different. Meghan has picked a movie John has never seen, so join us to hear his genuine, first time reaction to the 1995 coming-of-age movie, Now and Then!
