Episode 105: I Love (Consuming) The 80s

THIS WEEK... You've heard the saying, "The 80s was the best time to be a kid," well, we regret to inform you that we've discovered why, and it's actually kind of sad and scary. JP and Father Chuck learn about how in the 80s Ronald Reagan used the FCC to lift regulations on advertising toward children via children's programming, and how that may have had a hand in shaping the attitudes of Generation X, Millennials, and more generations to come. They also go in-depth on how shows and toys like Transformers and He-Man were conceived, and reveal that they can't quite wrap the heads around the series and toy line M.A.S.K., which is just bad.
