The revolutionary creation of TiVo. Some food and drink products that were here and gone in a flash. The bands that dominated 1980s Synth Pop.

Episode 239 is a binge of nostalgia in podcast form.

Blink & You'll Miss It Retro, Part 6 kicks it off by looking back at some food and drink products that came and went in a flash. Wine coolers, specialty rice, adult juice boxes, and more make up this segment.

Back in the day, you had to wait for your favorite TV show or set up a VCR to record it one at a time. Then TiVo came along and changed the way television was consumed forever. We look back at how TiVo revolutionized media, but also how that led to its downfall.

Fuzzy keyboard enthusiasts rejoice! This week's Top 5 is a look at some of the best 1980s synth pop bands. After the podcast, listen to the Spotify playlist I put together: Best of 80s Synth Pop

There is a brand new This Week In History and Time Capsule featuring the first animated film, Humorous Phases of Funny Faces.

Welcome to the debut of a new podcast!

Hidden Track is a short-form podcast. You get to the end of a CD, and after five minutes of silence, suddenly a new song starts playing. On these shows we will be taking a closer look at one or maybe two topics from the In My Footsteps Podcast archives. These are likely from Top 5's or other list segments and deserve more love.

On the premiere episode, we are going to dive deep into two pieces of odd headgear. The Isolator Helmet was meant to be a way to minimize distractions in the 1920s. The TV Hat was a way to keep all of the distractions right in front of you. Were either of them successful?

Originally debuting exclusively on Patreon, Hidden Track clocks in around 15 minutes. The shows will be available months in advance on Patreon before becoming a part of the rotation on the main podcast feed.

Enjoy this new bite-sized podcast. They will be available on the first Sunday of each month going forward. For access to the shows as soon as they debut you can become a member on Patreon.

How big a star was Eddie Murphy in the 1980s? Did Pepsi really own a fleet of naval vessels? What are some forgotten 1970s sodas?

Episode 238 looks to answer these questions with as little April Fools as possible.

We take a look at the meteoric rise to fame of Eddie Murphy in the 1980s. From an unknown to the biggest star in Hollywood in a few short years. It is the stuff of fairy tales. Saving SNL, hit comedy albums, hit songs, and a resume of hit movies most couldn't imagine.

In a story that sounds like an April Fool's joke we go back to the 1980s and the brief time that Pepsi owned a fleet of Soviet naval vessels. How in the world did this happen and what was the end result of the story?

Not all sodas can be Coke or Pepsi. A new Top 5 looks at the forgotten sodas of the 1970s. Brief hits, swings and misses, and ones that faded away are all here.

There is a brand new This Week In History and Time Capsule with the story of the largest tip ever left for a server. It was even made into a Hollywood movie.
