S. 3 Ep. 3 Satanic Panic

In this episode of The Bunker Buddies Podcast, we dive headfirst into the chaos of the 1980s Satanic Panic — a time when heavy metal, Dungeons & Dragons, and “teenage dirtbags” were blamed for everything wrong with America.

We break down where the fear started, how the media fueled it, the real lives it impacted, and how the image of the so-called “dirtbag” evolved from public enemy to punk-rock badge of honor.

Was it mass hysteria? Moral panic? Or something deeper?

Trust no signal — and let’s get into it.
