Manage episode 471790297 series 3590725
We dive into the magic of 80s movie weekends and how childhood freedom has changed over the decades. Homemade popcorn, classic films, and reminiscing about simpler times create the perfect nostalgic experience.
• The perfect 80s movie weekend starts with The Goonies and includes Poltergeist, E.T., and Ghostbusters
• Childhood in the 80s meant unlimited freedom to explore without parental supervision
• America's Most Wanted potentially sparked the rise of helicopter parenting
• Reality TV shows thrive by planting seeds of conflict without scripting specific drama
• Americans are drawn to sob stories and emotional content more than positive messages
• Corned beef and pastrami represent the ultimate comfort foods, especially around St. Patrick's Day
• We won $5,000 in a nationwide candy factory scavenger hunt during COVID
