It’s An 80s Thing #23 (an IA9T co-edition) – Stranger Danger

After providing data for hundreds of Soundwaves 10@10 episodes, Intern Steve steps into the spotlight with a deep dive into All Things 80s. Almost every episode will be two parts … each half a distinctly different subject from its counterpart … seemingly unrelated pop culture and music topics that (more often than not) will have a connection!

Today we’re going to hear Rolling Stone’s critics and reader’s choice for song of the year in 1983. We’re going to hear what Richie Sambora was up to when Jon Bon Jovi took a hiatus from his band and we’re going to hear a story about a litigious overhyped band who were on both sides of copywrite infringement with the song we play today. You’ll hear all of that and more in this co-edition of IA8T & IA9T. We’re going to hear from a group whose members included Tard-E Tard, Evil Jared Hasselhoff and Skip O’Pot2mus. Can you guess what band that is?
