S4 E12: Kids in the '80s - The Hilarious & Terrifying Things We All Remember

Step into the bizarre as we dive into a time warp back to the '80s, where the peculiar and the paranormal were just part of growing up. In this nostalgia-packed episode of That Would Be Rad, we're dusting off our memories to revisit the weird, the wild, and the downright spooky elements that colored our childhood. From the haunting chimes of the Unsolved Mysteries theme to the chilling encounters in movies like Return to Oz, we're exploring the eerie side of '80s pop culture that left us peeking through our fingers. But it wasn't all frights and fears; we're also laughing our way through the quirks of the decade. Remember the glory of the air popper, the strange allure of Garbage Pail Kids, and the days when a birthday party meant a homemade cake with enough frosting to paint your face blue? We're serving up a slice of those simpler times. So, grab your walkman, pop in a cassette, and join us for a trip down memory lane – '80s style. It's a journey through the charms and chills of a bygone era that shaped us into the rad individuals we are today. If you've got your own tales of '80s weirdness or want to share what freaked you out as a kid, we're all ears. Drop us a line, and let's keep the conversation going. Thank you for tuning in, and let's keep the spirit of the '80s alive – because, let's face it, they really were rad.
