Please turn off the background Muzak, it’s no distracting. It would be a perfect podcast without it.

After 100+- episodes I just couldn’t listen anymore. His tone and delivery sounds so scripted and mundane. His push for patreon for 2 minutes on every episodes was too much and desperate.

Very interesting/entertaining! I was very young when the 80’s ended, so this podcast is teaching me some things I never knew. Also, I love when Jamie says “Don’t you dare miss it!” ❤️

I’m a GenXer and all of these casts help me remember things I may have forgotten. Loads of fun. Jamie is a great host and speaker. So happy I found this cast.

This is the first podcast review I’ve ever written, but I can’t stop binging this show. I imagine this series is to children of the 80s what Jean Shepard (A Christmas Story) felt like to kids of the 40s and 50s.

Great host and nostalgic content. Love it!

I was 15 in 1980. From 15 to 25 the 80’s were my decade. Jamie does a terrific job of research and he just keeps coming up with topics! It really was an incredible decade. Best of all, anybody can get something from it. The 80’s started so much. Atari to X Box. Movie franchises that are...Read full review »

I loved this episode. Thanks so much. It’s a perfect blend of nostalgia with well researched facts and context. Your Shawshank Redemption sign off at the end was a particularly nice touch, well done. As usual, kudos.

Host Jamie does a fantastic job of taking us kids who grew up in the 80s down memory lane. I look forward to Wednesdays so I can listen to the next episode. One suggestion: Please turn up the volume of the audio clips. They are very quiet compared to Jamie’s voice. 👍🏼

Sorry, this review is simplistic … this podcast is outstanding. The host outlines a key concept in 25-35 mins with data, recollection, and passion. It’s terrific. Please join me in listening.

This is such a great pod. Jamie does a bang up job. Feels like he is telling us stuff during lunch in the caf. Really enjoy... but, Smurfs should have made Cartoon Top10 😝 Thanks for the sentimental memories.

Super good 👍

Great podcast, as someone who grew up in the 80’s you’ve given me a lot fun memories to reflect on while listening. Thank for all your efforts.
bosstones73 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/24/23
I was born in 1974 so this podcast speaks to me. I can’t relate to some of the topics because I lived in the UK until 1987 but I still listen anyway because I love learning more about stuff. Plus I tell my hubby about what I learned - he was 11 in 1980 so knows all about Wrestlemania & GI Joe...Read full review »

Wish I had known this great podcast sooner but great to catch up! Clearly a difference between older and newer episodes with regards to quality and production! Why the one star you ask? Because of the Michael Jackson comment. Innocent until proven guilty, remember? Since Jackson is one of the...Read full review »

I appreciate the balance of knowledge, entertainment, and personal anecdotes from the host. It puts this show on top of many, if not all other 80’s shows I’ve listened to. Highly recommend!

Amazing show! It’s so interesting to indulge in many historic events that make up the 80s that we know and love!

Absolutely love the show. Thanks for keeping my childhood alive with your in -depth weekly reminders of an era of such great importance and influence. And so you know, I take a shot every time I hear you say “juggernaut “. 😊🥃
TBoneSammich via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/08/23
I was born in 1984 and I am a huge fan of nostalgia. This podcast hits all of the feels - touching on toys, television, movies, and other subjects that bring the listener right back into the 80’s. Awesome content. Five stars.
Ronzilla23 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/31/23
What a great podcast, the commentary is well done and the information is well researched. I enjoyed the 80’S as a young adult and the extra information about the subjects sometimes surprises me and adds depth to what I remember. Keep up the good work.
Bearinit1 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/18/23
This is a great 80's nostalgia podcast! The subjects are really on point and well researched! But...the host has a habit of making swallowing sounds (almost a clicking of his larynx) into the mic as he talks. Not sure if he has Dysphagia but it really is annoying and wish he would just turn...Read full review »

Excellent listen. Great content. Host has worked hard to provide fascinating insights into the life and times of the 80’s. Love hearing his ideas about why humans can be drawn to nostalgia. Also great use of appropriate sound clips.
Justin 81 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/06/23
I just started listening because my sister told me about it and now I’m totally hooked!! His voice is so soothing too. I love how well he explains everything, there’s so many things I didn’t know.
Sarbear_88 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/21/23
Great podcast. Well done. Your friend from Canada. Motivated to make my podcast better now

Excellent content! It brings back a lot of memories.
jimvajionis via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/17/23
Totally Awesome! If you are an 80’s kid or wish you were this is a must listen!!
Nertna via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/13/23
I really enjoy this podcast. It’s very educational (even for topics that I thought I knew a lot about) while still keeping your attention. I really appreciate that the host gets right to the point, and there isn’t a lot of filler. I have trouble dealing with a lot of the “banter” on other...Read full review »

Much better than any of the others out there. No woke nonsense only neutral politics. Thank you. Just well researched history unlike the rest. Wish there were more episodes.

I cannot stop smiling while listening to this podcast. Download, start listening and track back to your favorite decade.
spbennie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/28/23
As a Gen Xer this podcast covers all the awesome things about being a kid in the 80’s! Jamie has a great voice and delivery and a clear knowledge and fondness for these topics.
KBMC2013 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/23
I was but a wee kid in the 80s (born in ‘82). But I was a part of, and remember, so much of this. I get nostalgic as I learn new facts about stuff I remember, or discover stuff about the 80s I didn’t know. Great material and delivery, Jamie. That said, the last handful of episodes I have...Read full review »

This show is well researched, well presented and teaches me something new in every episode. Thank you.
David Cortese via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/30/22
He discusses great topics and it reminds you of all those things you thought you forgot, it’s a trip and I love it.
i_m_good via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/30/22
Absolutely love this show. Fond memories with a real backstory. Jamie has a great voice and I enjoy hearing about his personal memories. Did you ever get your Soundwave? If you didn’t, I’d happily give you mine😊
Fairwaysbilly via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/02/22
If you love the 80s then this podcast is for you. I’m burning through all the shows. It’s easy to do.
Kilo P. Hour via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/01/22
The podcaster has a perfect tone, pace and enthusiasm to hear the podcast. Recommend to those who love the 80s.

Great…but please stop describing deregulation in every episode!
Papajay via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/07/22
I was aged 3-12 during the 80s. The movies! The fashion! The hair! The memories! Great podcast revisiting so many pop culture moments from the 80s. I just recently found this podcast (from That 90s Podcast) and was thrilled to learn there are a bunch (100+) of episodes to listen to. Plus -...Read full review »

This is, the best back story to the 80s anywhere! Love to listen while doing everyday tasks! Better than Netflix 80s series
JayLloyd78 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/01/22
This is absolutely one of my favorite podcasts !! I love how Jamie gives US listeners a view point from a Canadian perspective !! ♥️
a1e tt e via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/01/22
Discovered this podcast by accident, but have loved every episode. Jamie covers and captures all things 80s from music, movies, news and pop culture. It’s an awesome decade and Jamie helps remind me why I loved these times in my life. Look forward to a new episode every other week.
newwaverjules via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/30/22
Every episode is full of fun, nostalgia and entertainment. My favorite podcast!
Jer Harrell via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/28/22
