The Magical Summer of 1985

By the summer of 1985, we had reached the halfway point of the decade. And when it came to all things pop culture, the summer of '85 may have been the decade's peak. Today, we look back on the movies, music, and innovations that made this summer one to remember. It's the summer that also included one of the biggest events of our time and a gigantic blunder that was 100 years in the making. Whether you were hanging out at home or hitting up the mall--a place that had become more crowded than ever--the summer of 1985 would be one for the ages.  -- Check out the book Live Aid Runaways available on Amazon or at Barnes & Noble The Everything 80s Movie Review Podcast: Patreon.com/80s
