Episode notes

Paulo and Dori took a hit of nostalgia crack at The Pretoria Retro Fair and talk about the frustration of booking out an unwound VHS, arcade game survival tactics, oysters in the sun and finding The Lost Boys in the bathroom.


Paulo tracked down The Hoff's song with Patricia Lewis and it's more spectacular than he remembered.


Dori has a very intellectual podcast recommendation, we could all afford 80s sitcom houses and was an 80s puppet show set in Cape Town taking digs at the apartheid government?
