It’s been almost 2 years and the team of Rob and Dave at Totally 80’s and 90s Recall have made it to their 100th episode. This week the hosts take a look back at the Billboard Hot 100 charts in the 80s and 90s. Normally, people look at the #1 songs, or the top 10 or 40 hits, but not this week. On this episode, Rob and Dave look at all of the songs that were ranked at #100 at some point during each year of the 80s and 90s. They’ll then rank their favorites from each year and discuss and possibly disagree on the validity and quality of those songs. Finding gems that hit #100 can sometimes uncover underrated songs and really popular songs that found their way to this part of the list. Often it could be a debut, but also it’s just a song that already peaked higher on the Billboard charts and is now on its way out. So for this podcast’s 100th episode, Rob and Dave will rack and stack their favorites and prove that the number attached to a song on the Hot 100 doesn’t always reflect how great of a jam it could be.

As we move into November, we take a look at our first Thanksgiving movie, Son In Law starring Pauly Shore. For this episode, Dave, Kurt and Rob will travel to South Dakota and watch this Fish-out-of-water comedy down on a farm. Shore looks to help out his college friend, Carla Gugino as she visits her parents during the Thanksgiving break from school by creating a distraction for her boyfriend Travis. From farming to square dancing, fishing and Playboy’s, Shore will find out how different, and similar life can be in middle America. With plenty of early 90’s style, the film offers an amusing take on culture shock and family acceptance, all in classic Pauly Shore fashion buddies!!!

In this episode, we're diving into the music of 1981, a year packed with groundbreaking hits, legendary debuts, and unforgettable moments in pop and rock history. From chart-toppers to under-the-radar gems, we’ll break down what made 1981 an iconic year for music. Along with an ever changing sound as we broke away from the 70’s, MTV made its debut changing how everyone around the world looked at and listened to music. Dave and Rob will each select their favorite songs from this week on the Billboard Hot 100 which had mixes of new wave, big arena rock n roll, a little bit of a disco holdover and maybe some yacht rock. So join us as we celebrate a year that laid the groundwork for so much of what we love about 80s music. Listen, remember, and discover why 1981 was more than just another year in music.

It’s SpookTober and what is more iconic than scary dudes with masks looking to chase local babysitters? That’s right, we’re looking at the horror classic, 1978’s Halloween. Directed by John Carpenter, Halloween follows the story of a troubled young boy who turns into a malevolent and unstoppable force as an adult. This week, Rob, Kurt and Dave will re-watch a movie considered an all time classic to see if it still holds up and will retain the title as the greatest horror movie ever made. We’ll discuss whether or not all other modern day horror movies only exist because of John Carpenter’s classic. It spawned multiple sequels and made its main evil character, Michael Myers a pop culture icon. So grab some overalls, toss on a mask and go looking for teenagers doing all the things they’re not supposed to be doing as we try to scare the crap out of you talking about 1978's Halloween.

The 1990’s were a wild time for music. The emergence of so many styles and genres of music made it one of the most eclectic decades of our lifetimes. However, despite producing some of the most iconic and memorable songs and albums of the last 40-50 years, somehow some questionable songs were able to top the Billboard charts. On this week’s episode, Rob and Dave take a look at a group of songs that overcame many of their own shortcomings to somehow become the most popular song in America for at least 1 week in the 90’s. We’ll look at the songs, what they were all about and discuss why we think they may have been able to rise up the charts and overtake music, that looking back was completely superior in so many ways. So buckle up for some interesting hits from the 90’s this week, and maybe a few you might actually like, as we ask the question “How Did These Songs hit #1 in the 90’s?”

24 hours a day, 7 days a week, no job is too big, no fee is too big for Rob, Dave and Kurt as they go busting ghosts. We’re going back 40 years to revisit the timeless 80’s comedy classic Ghostbusters. This groundbreaking movie from our childhood blended humor, supernatural elements, and cutting edge special effects in a way that was fresh and captivating at the time. It had a memorable cast of characters starring Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd, Harold Ramis, Rick Moranis and Sigourney Weaver. It also has a theme song that has become one of the most iconic in movie history, endless quotes people still use today and an appeal as a movie that appeals to kids and adults alike. So join us as we breakdown and have fun going over our favorite parts of the movie and take a journey back to one of the most beloved films of the 1980’s. So break up the dogs and cats, and you should know exactly Who You’re Gonna Call, and we’ll bring the marshmallows.

The sweet and smooth polished sounds of the late 70s and early 80s was deemed soft rock. It had its own radio stations sometimes on the AM dial and became music synonymous with riding in an elevator or waiting in a doctors office. In the early 2000’s, this brand of what was known as Soft Rock was renamed Yacht Rock from a web series, but has now become widely accepted as describing this style of music. Soft or Yacht rock combines jazz, R&B and rock influences to create an easy going feeling about love and a carefree lifestyle. On this episode, Dave, and Rob (reluctantly) list their favorite songs from this genre. They’ll go over each other’s choices and surely have some spirited discussion and debate over the choices. So ditch those leather jackets, grab a cozy sweater and a glass of chardonnay and imagine you’re on a yacht drifting carelessly in slow motion. Now you’re ready for songs that can be played at a wedding or in an office setting and are just catchy enough to be oh so memorable.

What happens when you only have 90 minutes to tell a really long story, and you cannot take the time to expand on the entire plot? That would be the old movie making adage of putting in a montage. You can easily streamline your story and show growth by the characters from being really bad at something to becoming a pro in 3-4 minutes. Throw in a kick ass 80’s hype song, and they become unforgettable moments in any great movie. This week we’re taking a look at our favorite montage moments from particular movies that used this filmmaking trick better than others. We’ll rank our top 10 favorite montages from 80’s movies, and hopefully not miss any of the classics, pointing out why each montage is awesome and should always be remembered. The mix of rousing music, energetic editing, and strong emotional beats made montages not just memorable but integral to the tone and impact of 80s movies. They often encapsulated the film’s core themes in just a few minutes, leaving a lasting impression.

Saturday Night live in the 1980s and 1990s are considered the golden era of the show. During these two decades, the show spawned many legendary performers that would go on to become comedy and movie stars influencing pop culture even to this day. For this week’s episode, Rob and Dave take a look, and rank their favorite SNL performers from this golden era of the 80s and 90s to reveal who are their favorites, and who they think were the funniest and most influential, not quite ready for prime time players. SNL created so many classic characters and recurring sketches such as Wayne’s World, The Church Lady, Hans and Franz and Canteen Boy. They were also always on the cutting edge of political satire, with their dead-on impersonations of the most powerful world figures of the time. Finally, the show became a must-see for the most popular musical acts of the time which kept the show constantly culturally relevant and appealed to the younger hip audience. So let’s go back to lunch lady land, dance with Swayze for Chippendales and please, lay off us, we’re starving as we head to 30 Rock this week to revisit Saturday Night Live.

In 1999, the hits were all about having fun, embracing drama, and never taking yourself too seriously. On this week’s episode, Rob and Dave will revisit the Billboard charts for this week back in 1999 to take a look at some of the hottest hits of the Y2K era. We’ll look at some rock music as well as some of the end of the decade TRL pop jams that flooded our radios and CD players. It was a year of catchy hooks, memorable lyrics, and a whole lot of dancing like no one was watching. So believe this as you listen this week, we’ll be as Smooth as an All Star, because we always Want It That Way, but Believe us when we say, although we’re Pretty Fly, you’ll get no Scar Tissue checking out some of the best of 1999.
