Fonzie STILL Loves Pinky

from Pop Culture Preservation Society · host Pop Culture Preservation Society

In this week’s episode we’re starting with an all new conversation, gushing over Henry Winkler’s memoir and the man himself, whom we’ve grown to love as so much more than just “The Fonz.” Then we’ll replay Episode 83, “Fonzie Loves Pinky." If you say the word "Pinky" to AARP-aged people, they will intuitively respond with this weird snappy-fist-slapping ritual. It's a Gen X reaction honed by the cultural phenomenon knows as Pinky Tuscadero. Join us as we revisit the Happy Days episode that gave us Pinky and cemented itself in the hearts of Gen Xers for all eternity -- Fonzie Loves Pinky. Who was Pinky and why did a nation of children fall under her spell? Why was she only on the show for THREE episodes?! And what actually happened in the episode? Does anyone even remember? Grab a pink scarf, tie it around your neck, and let's go deep on this demolition derby of a Gen X pop culture supernova of a topic.Visit armoire.style/PCPS to get up to 50% off your first month, that’s up to $125 OFF!
