This week on Two Guys Talking About Records, Steve and Jim attempt to evolve... Well, not really. They're still talking about records. But they do discuss how some great artists and bands have changed their tune over the years. Sometimes it's a temporary change, and sometimes they completely flip genres. The guys also cover their most recent pickups.

This week, Steve & Jim welcome a true '80s authority: Steve Spears, creator and host of the long-running, award-winning Stuck in the '80s podcast (celebrating 20+ years and over 600 episodes!).We dive deep into the magic of the decade that gave us MTV, new wave, big hair, and unforgettable pop culture. Steve shares highlights from his incredible guest list—interviews with Rock and Roll Hall of Famers, leading artists, and pop icons who defined the era. We geek out over the music that still soundtracks our lives, from synth-heavy anthems to classic rock staples, while touching on the broader vibes of '80s movies, fashion, and memories. A big focus is Steve's exciting upcoming book, Stuck in the '80s: 20 Years of Conversations with Pop Culture Icons Who Defined a Decade (hitting shelves in March!). It's part memoir, part pop-culture history, packed with behind-the-mic stories from two decades of chats that capture why the '80s refuse to fade away. The trio also cover their most recent additions to their collections.

On this week's episode of Two Guys, Steve and Jim go head-to-head on which is superior... US Punk Rock - or British Punk? (spoiler: they're still friends).

What is inside?!?
