Imagine…travelling back to a time before the Internet…before Mountain Dew Livewire…and before the neo-post apocalypse…

This Summer, Apocalypse Video asks the question: Where Were You In ‘82?

The date is August 13th, 1982. Steve Miller's “Abracadabra” is climbing the charts as it looks to steal the #1 spot from reigning champion: Eye of the Tiger; and a dramedy about high school life in the 80s is about to create one of the most famous stoner archetypes ever put to screen.

The film...is Fast Times at Ridgemont High. And it's about to make some killer waves…now!

I’m your host, Dave, and joining me as we try our best to offload some Van Halen tickets are fellow cinephiles and Ridgemont High alumni, Mike and Jackie.

Topics of discussion in this episode include a film that’s remembered as a Porky’s style comedy, when in reality it’s more of a Dazed and Confused style dramedy; we break down the horrors of working in the fast food industry; and finally, we compare the kids of Ridgemont to the current day generation and ask, “do kids today even still care about sex?”.

And as the chyrons appear on screen to tell us of our futures, we must leave the halls of Ridgemont High behind as we begin our training in the Aviation Officer Candidate School. Ironically, much like our time at Ridgemont - SPOILER ALERT!!! - we must also worry about surprise pregnancies. See you then!

This Summer, Apocalypse Video asks the question: Where Were You In ‘82?

The date is July 23rd, 1982. The Human League's "Don't You Want Me?" has lost the title of #1 to returning champ, Survivor, and their rockin' workout anthem, Eye of the Tiger; and a delightfully naughty musical from Tennessee favorite Dolly Parton is about to steam up the silver screen with her enormous.... musical talent.

The film...is The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. And it's open for business…now!

I’m your host, Dave, and joining me as we do a little sneakin’ around are fellow cinephiles and Chicken Ranch regulars, Mike, Jackie, and Ryan.

Topics of discussion in this episode include the tumultuous drama behind the making of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas; we break down the all too relevant character of Melvin P. Thorpe; and finally, Ryan guides us through the delightful wonderland that is Dollywood.

And as Dolly and Burt ride off into the sunset, we too must pack up and hit the road. When we return, we’ll be strapping on our backpacks and heading back to school as we watch the Amy Heckerling classic, Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Cya then, folks! Ya’ll come back and listen to us again now, ya hear?!

This Summer, Apocalypse Video asks the question: Where Were You In ‘82?

The date is July 9th, 1982. The Human League's "Don't You Want Me?" sits atop the Billboard Charts for its second week in a row; and a groundbreaking film from Walt Disney Pictures is about to bring cinema into the computer age, as video game wiz kid Kevin Flynn gets sucked into the world…of The Grid.

The film...is Tron. And it's about to be derezzed…now!

I’m your host, Dave, and joining me as we hop on our light cycles is fellow cinephile and lowly computer program, Ryan.

Topics of discussion in this episode include a film that’s heavy on vibes, but light on emotion; Ryan tells us about Tron: Ares so we don’t have to watch it; and finally, we discuss the legacy (no pun intended) of Tron, a property that’s been resurrected multiple times, despite being a film that the masses don’t really know or care about.

And as Kevin Flynn lands in his personal helicopter to go about running his new computer business, we too must hop on a chopper and make our way to Texas - all the way to a little town in Lanville County, which just so happens to have a A Lil' Ole Bitty Pissant Country Place that we just gotta see! But don’t worry, ‘cause there’s no funny business going on in this place…(wink wink).
