It’s An 80s Thing #85 – Helping Hands & Bedtime

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!

Crystal may not be joining me today, but she is here in spirit! Today we’re going to hear a song that was born of a $100,000 bet. We’re going to hear from a guy who was appointed a Member of the Order of Australia and we’re going to hear 3 songs in a row that stalled at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100! You’ll hear all of that and more in this edition of IA8T.
