1980s Now is a weekly examination of the importance of 80s pop culture and its continued influence today. We demonstrate that nostalgia alone doesn’t account for the contemporary fascination with our favorite decade. Instead, we share personal experiences and interview experts--including icons from 80s music, movies and TV--to demonstrate the “era of greed” bore the greatest moments in movies, music, television and sports. The show is equally entertaining and informative. (80s is aka '80s.)© 2020-2025 1980s Now LLC Arte Música Política y Gobierno

  • Masquerade: The Scandalous 80s Treasure Hunt

    Masquerade: The Scandalous 80s Treasure Hunt
    Jul 15 2025

    Will is joined by Meg and Jessica from Desperately Seeking the 80s. Will shares the unlikely, but true, story of Masquerade, the book that changed gaming.

    In 1979, a seemingly innocuous picture book actually concealed clues to the location of a golden prize. Once the secret was out, it inspired a real-life treasure hunt, a decade-long scandal, and a genre of video games that followed.

This podcast is great! Loved hearing all of Tom Higgenson's memories from his childhood, like his sports superstitions. They also talk about his new solo career, Million Miler, with an 80s synth pop vibe. He's also started his own record label, Humans were here.
