Whose been kissing Madonna's brother? It's a Careless Whisper and the only living person would never admit to being jilted. An 80s frontman takes a swing at Taylor Swift. We do not want to be his social media manager right now. Did we brainstorm a more interesting Flash Gordon remake…
Lost-core meets Hardcore as Paulo and Dori tie up a loose end from a past show. Two mysterious ‘’80s’’ songs appeared on the internet and the sleuths got to work. Sleuths and pervs. Halloween costumes got us having odd thoughts about E.T. as well as Roger and Jessica Rabbit’s children!…
It’s November the First and if the question is, “Can I start playing Last Christmas?’’, the answer is, “Why did you stop?’’. Paulo is not afraid of Elon Musk’s killbots, he has the best 80s robots - and V.I.C.I. on his side. Dori doesn’t want to see an American Psycho…
Don't you forget about The Breakfast Club sequel. We didn't but the internet tried to trick us. It's doccie time with the life story of Gary Coleman and the death stories of 80s hair band members. The resurrection theme continues in Dori's movie of the week while Paulo's movie is…
Milli Vanilli are back in the charts for the first time in over 30 years, and you gotta blame it on something. In less murderous brother news - Paulo reveals the names of the little dinosaurs from Bubble Bobble which prompts us to try to name their girlfriends with sub-par…
Nothing like a dirty old 80s deck to get the show started! Paulo wanted Michael Knight to be his dad and Thomas Anders is a dzaddy. 80s TV shows had terrible endings especially Three's Company, so Dori fixed it. We remember the Wombles and find out that Wombling is legal…
!!Warning!! This episode contains some outrageous Afrikaans euphemisms! Paulo and Dori are joined by Noel Opperman, The Curator Supreme of the Pretoria Retro Fair for a deep dive into Liewe Heksie, among other puppet related things. We dispute the denials about a Goonies sequel - we just think they don't…
Along with hulking muscles, Paulo has another thing in common with Lou Ferrigno - neither of them know their social media log ins. Morrissey must have a new publicist because he's back in the news and this time he's taking on The Vatican. Dori finds a tenuous link for her…
Paulo and Dori took a hit of nostalgia crack at The Pretoria Retro Fair and talk about the frustration of booking out an unwound VHS, arcade game survival tactics, oysters in the sun and finding The Lost Boys in the bathroom. Paulo tracked down The Hoff's song with Patricia Lewis…
Your favourite Eddies are headed to The Pretoria Retro Fair and let's pray Paulo doesn't find Garbage Pail Kids. We advocate for the return of overhead projectors, find out who is on Team Heathcliff and realise that we really hate the Snorks. Dori tells us about an angel with amazing…
Be kind, rewind and make sure you're at the Pretoria Retro Fair on Saturday 31 August, details here: www.retrofair.co.za. Bring your Bob-T card! Paulo didn't pay that much attention to the Roadhouse Remake after all and Dori tells us about Narcopotamusesesessesssees. Plus mentions of Tupac, Willem Dafoe, Rabbit, Laura Branigan,…
The power of nostalgia is strong and smells like a family-sized bottle of Brut aftershave. So it doesn't take long for fans of retro to sniff each other out. The Pretoria Retro Fair is a celebration of 70s, 80s and 90s pop-culture and Paulo invited Noël Opperman to talk about…
Paulo and Dori need to lock away their credit cards. We've partnered with the Pretoria Retro Fair and want to see you there on Saturday 31 August. Get the details on www.retrofair.co.za. One person who won't be there is George Michael, but his ghost may be - at least according…

Paulo and Dori do some Modern Talking about the Thomas Anders concert but feel like they visited another country, like Denmark. We take a look at the cheesiest songs of the 80s and wear a black lace armband to commemorate the passing of the 80s biggest novelty artist. Dori re-watched…
If Paulo could go back in time - he'd go watch the Back to the Future stage show. Dori disagrees on Paulo's favourite 80s sitcom family, but rather tells us about a family that were forced to live in the 80s in 2009. We discover how much Martin Kemp's clothes…
