Imagine…travelling back to a time before the Internet…before Mountain Dew Livewire…and before the neo-post apocalypse… This Summer, Apocalypse Video asks the question: Where Were You In ‘82? The time is May 28th, 1982…Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder are on the top of the charts with Ebony and Ivory…and former underdog Sylvester Stallone is about to release a film that will kick off a summer movie season like no other. The film is Rocky III, and it's about to go the distance…NOW!! I’m your host, Dave, and joining me as we travel back to a summer with virtually nothing but bangers are fellow cinephiles and former prize fighters Mike, Ryan, and Jackie.
