Sailing Away to The Summer of 1980

from Pop Culture Preservation Society · host Pop Culture Preservation Society

We're kicking off Season 19 AND summer by saving the summer when the galaxy got a lot darker, the music got a lot smoother, and we wore out the stickers on our Rubik's Cubes waiting to find out who shot J.R. -- the summer of 1980! Relive the movies (“Luke, I am your father”), the music (“What’s the matter with the clothes I’m wearing?”), the (Incredible!) TV shows, and so much more as we take you on a journey back to a summer when chasing the ice-cream truck and making up dances to the Grease soundtrack were all that really mattered.Click here for a year of Remind Magazine for only $12.Shop our link at bookshop.org to support independent bookstores and the PCPS.Subscribe to our YouTube channel hereFollow the Pop Culture Preservation Society on Instagram, Facebook an TikTokSupport the PCPS by becoming a patron on Patreon.
