Step into the retro wave zone as DJ Paulie and Brother Lou take you back in time to the golden era with the Back in Time Brothers. This week, we are diving deep into the "Class of 1978," exploring the ground-breaking music, blockbuster movies, classic television, and wild scandals that defined a truly unforgettable year.

Here is what you can expect in this episode:

• Random Facts of '78: Did you know 1978 was the year of three different Catholic Popes and the debut of everyone's favorite lasagna-loving cat, Garfield? We also discuss the birth of the first IVF baby, the launch of the first GPS satellite, and the massive New England blizzard that dropped 55 inches of snow.
• DJ Brit’s Top 5 Albums: DJ Brit takes over the countdown to spin two defining tracks from each of 1978's most essential albums. Get ready to rock out to Foreigner's Double Vision, Elvis Costello's This Year's Model, Blondie's disco-infused Parallel Lines, The Cars' self-titled debut, and Billy Joel's Grammy-winning 52nd Street.
• Blockbuster Movies & Hit TV: We count down the top films that had everyone heading to the theaters, from the legendary comedy of Animal House to the cultural phenomenons of Grease and Saturday Night Fever. Plus, we grab the remote to talk about the biggest TV shows dominating the ABC network, including Taxi, Mork & Mindy, and Three's Company.
• Rock Talk with Todd Snyder: Todd brings us the dark side of rock and roll with the biggest musical scandals of the year. Hear the unbelievable stories behind the lawsuit over the Rolling Stones' Some Girls album cover, Queen's infamous naked bicycle race, and Marvin Gaye's spiteful divorce album, Here, My Dear.
• Rest in Peace (The RIP Segment): We bring back our classic format to pay tribute to the notable figures we lost in 1978. We remember iconic Americana artist Norman Rockwell, legendary Jaws actor Robert Shaw, and The Who's wildly unpredictable drummer, Keith Moon.

The Top 10 Sophisti-Pop Countdown: DJ Brit takes us through the tracks that traded punk leather for polished elegance. We're counting down the biggest hits from legends like Roxy Music, Sade, Spandau Ballet, and ABC.

Silver Screen Style: We explore the "neon noir" and yuppie aesthetics of iconic '80s films. From Richard Gere's revolutionary suits in American Gigolo to the "greed is good" power suspenders of Wall Street and the pastel blazers of Less Than Zero.

TV Time: Remember when everyone wanted to be Don Johnson? We look back at the shows that set the trends, including the sockless loafers of Miami Vice, the witty banter of Moonlighting, and the high-end detective looks of Remington Steele.

The Elegant Underbelly: Todd Snyder stops by for "Rock Talk" to peel back the designer wallpaper. He explores the dark side of Sophisti-Pop, from grueling studio perfectionism to the reclusive nature of its biggest stars.

Busted & Random Fat Facts: We balance out the high-class vibes with our hilarious "Busted" segment featuring the world's dumbest criminals (including a high-speed chase ruined by a dunked Oreo and a man held hostage by llamas!). Plus, we drop some wild trivia in "Random Fat Facts".

Step into the retro wave zone as DJ Paulie and Lou take you on a deep dive back to 1997 on this week's Back in Time Brothers radio show!

The brothers kick off the show by recapping their wild, exhausting weekend at the Innings Festival in Tempe, Arizona, where they rocked out to legendary acts like Public Enemy, Big Boi from Outkast, Blink-182, and Switchfoot.

The hilarity continues with a brand-new "Busted" segment, highlighting the world's dumbest criminals. You won't believe the stories of a safe cracker who gave a security camera a high-def close-up, a fugitive who had himself paged over a courthouse PA system, and a burglar who accidentally locked himself in a 5-degree meat freezer for seven hours.

For the main event, DJ Brit takes over the Top 10 Countdown to celebrate the most iconic One Hit Wonders of 1997. Get ready to feel the nostalgia with massive tracks like Freak Nasty's "Da' Dip," Chumbawamba's "Tubthumping," Mark Morrison's "Return of the Mack," and Meredith Brooks' smash hit "Bitch".

The guys also hit the silver screen to count down the Top 10 Movies of 1997, reminiscing about massive blockbusters like Titanic, Men in Black, Face/Off, and Good Will Hunting. Then, Todd Snyder drops in for "Rock Talk" to uncover the biggest music industry scandals of the year, from the tragic loss of Notorious B.I.G. and heavy sampling lawsuits to Disney abruptly dropping the Insane Clown Posse.

Finally, wrap up the episode with some mind-blowing trivia in "Random Fat Facts," where you'll learn why the famous MGM lion roar is actually a tiger, what horrific job the "Groom of the King's Stool" had to do for Henry VIII, and the sad story of the 52-hertz whale.
