S2 E2: Sweep the Leg, Phone Home, and Call Your TV Dad
Jun 09, 2025•42 min•Season 2Ep. 2
Episode description
This week, we’re crane-kicking our way through 80s pop culture like it’s a Cobra Kai training montage.
First up: The Karate Kid. We settle (or escalate) the age-old debate - was Daniel the real hero… or just an aggressive new kid with a bonsai complex? You be the judge.
Next, we count down our Top 5 Sitcom Dads of the 1980s - from sweater-wearing wisdom to dads who may or may not be from outer space.
And in our final segment, Bill pitches his totally unnecessary, definitely unhinged idea for a sequel to E.T.
It’s another episode of The 80s Show Podcast, where nostalgia meets nonsense in all the best ways.
