This episode originally aired on April 18, 2016. https://13thhr.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post-new.php?post_type=post&jetpack-copy=4855 Get ready for a mammoth episode - this is 70+ minutes of audio footage featuring author George Sirois!  We covered a ton of material, including tons of 80s trivia, like: -80s Hits Stripped - acoustic versions of 80s songs covered by the artists themselves (links to youtube) -Stan Bush's "The Touch" (listen for clips in the podcast!) -The Transformers Movie 30th Anniversary -The Undertaker - remember this guy? This was a great conversation that could have easily have gone an additional hour.  We also had a chance amid the 80s nostalgia to discuss George's books:   Click on the cover to be taken to the Amazon listing.
