An Asylum Podcast Pop-Culture Retrospective: 1989

Dateline – The Asylum. The Year… 1989. Kousin Tim graduated from high school. Kousin Ray finished his first year of college. Kousin Gary was a Junior in high school. Kousin Marvin was 13, so he could probably only think about girls. Some of those represent the biggest, or perhaps the most widely known, moments in some artists’ careers. In addition to all the great music, not just hard rock but pop, alternative, and post-punk, the Kousins take on a snippet in time and talk about what 1989 meant to them. Not only is music on the menu for the Kousins, but they also talk about movies, television, sports, and even video games. There was but one caller this week. Bruno from Windy South Africa was our lone contact. What was going on in your life in 1989? What were you listening to? What were you playing, riding, driving, enjoying, or not enjoying? Let us know by calling the TLDNetwork (KUZZ Army) hotline and leaving a message for the Kousins at 336-422-NUMB (6862). We have Instagram and Twitter. We can’t ask for those “enjoy” things and for you to keep getting updates because Facebook doesn’t like that. Pfft… This podcast was recorded in the Such-N-Such Media Studios at Liberty Plaza and connected via Zoom, sponsored by Top Leaf Cigar Lounge.
