80s Slang & Retro Pop Culture: Words Gen X Refuses to Give Up

Is your vocabulary still stuck in the 1980s? This week on Strangers With Kittens, we are diving into the world of Gen X slang and proving exactly why our generation refuses to lose its cool. Eileen breaks down the legendary 80s slang and 90s phrases that still slip off our tongues today. We look at the words we didn't start but adopted, the catchphrases we can't believe anyone actually uttered in public, and the cinematic trends that shaped how we spoke. Did real teenagers actually say these things, or was it just the cast of Clueless? Where did these retro catchphrases even come from, and do you still say them today? Tune in for a totally wild, wicked, and gnarly dose of 1980s childhood nostalgia. Support the show Strangers With Kittens is a podcast created by Eileen Kelly and Produced by Ashley Aker. Original music composed and performed by Chris Hajian.
