We’re breaking format like Chuck Norris broke teeth, as we take a moment to remember the man who had his own line of “Action Jeans.”The perfect jeans for karate kick slap action.With 13 movies in the 80s alone and a projected on-screen body count of over 400, Chuck Norris was a star long before he became the world’s deadliest meme.But because Paulo loves a good lie, there’s still time for a round of Two 80s Truths and a Lie, featuring Joan Jett, Devo, and your favourite 80s phone number.Parade.com Birth Month 80s Songs (00:03:08): https://parade.com/astrology/80s-rock-song-birth-monthsChuck Norris 80s movies ranked (00:08:50):  https://movieweb.com/all-80s-chuck-norris-movies-ranked/Two 80s Truths and a Lie Game (00:29:30) #That 80s Show, #1980s pop culture, #Pretoria Retro Fair, #horoscopes, #nostalgia, #iconic 80s songs, #Chuck Norris, #cultural icon, #martial arts, #80s movies, #tough-guy persona, #memes, #Chuck Norris jokes, #action cinema, #Walker Texas Ranger, #Karate kick slaps, #childhood memories, #80s trivia, #music and personality, #Parade.com, #Tears for Fears, #Eurythmics, #Survivor, #Madonna, #Guns N' Roses, #Bruce Lee, #martial arts movies, #action stars, #pop culture references, #Chuck Norris movies, #classic cars, #Thundercats, #Miami Vice, #K-pop, #Harry Styles, #movie reviews, #nostalgia, #80s icons, #childhood influences, #cultural impact, #social media, #internet memes, #fun facts, #trivia game.

Dori is back from her 80s cruise and we find out how she didn’t waste a single sway(ze), met the Mattress Brothers, and hear about the scariest thing in her cabin.Corey Feldman is a free man, but that doesn’t mean he couldn’t give you hives. And while we find out that he won’t be on stage at the Oscars, he might just be popping up in a seat next to some celebs.We look at things from the 80s that we were irrationally afraid of, which leads us nicely into a David Hasselhoff heavy metal song.Dori’s First Cruise Experience (00:01:02) Corey Feldman  News (00:17:44) : https://people.com/corey-feldman-finalizes-divorce-ex-wife-courtney-anne-agrees-100k-spousal-support-settlement-1188667880s Childhood Fears (00:22:31): https://ultimateclassicrock.com/1980s-scary-things-kids/ George Michael/Wham!

How did a German Italo-disco song by two men named Hayo get Paulo banned from the internet?Spoiler… it involves the numbers 6 and 9.Dori is going on a cruise, but she’s not allowed to take her own music unless it’s something by Bo(u)y George.We take time to reminisce about the items EVERY 80s house had and question our collective sanity over putting so many crocheted items near a toilet.Dori made Paulo watch a vampire bikini movie, we myth-bust a Dolph Lundgren urban legend, and Two 80s Truths and a Lie hits the slopes with a Winter Olympics theme.Can you say Après-ski?Jump To (Links):The Sex Shop Boys 00:21:11): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OYCUbJsJoQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDBWSmdZYLIMovie Review: Vampires on Bikini Beach (00:25:50): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TagMC1rkXzgRemake of The Burbs & Corey Feldman Cameo (00:39:42): https://www.remindmagazine.com/article/39823/corey-feldman-the-burbs-cameo-saved-life/MacGyver Hair Salon in Bangladesh (00:41:23): https://www.macgyveronline.com/news/macgyver-hair-dresser/Dolph Lundgren Home Invasion Urban Legend (00:43:09): https://www.joblo.com/dolph-lundgren-home-invaders/#1980s nostalgia, #That 80s Show, #Paulo, #Dori, #1980s culture, #walking songs, #Walk Like an Egyptian, #Walk on the Wild Side, #sunburns, #ozone protection, #silver sun tablets, #University of London, #sentimental childhood items, #emotional strength, #mental steadiness, #nostalgia and mental health, #He-Man, #A-Team, #childhood comfort items, #emotional control, #lower anxiety, #coping strategies, #80s memorabilia, #MSC Cruises, #themed cruise, #conversion rate, #Retro Fire and Ice, #Glow Like the 80s, #home decor, #floral patterned cushions, #foam mattresses, #hi-fi stereo cabinet, #plastic studded floor runners, #toilet decorations, #Sex Shop Boys, #Italo disco, #Vampires on Bikini Beach, #bad movies, #MacGyver, #Dolph Lundgren, #urban legend, #Winter Olympics, #Jamaican bobsled team, #Cool Runnings, #The Final Countdown, #podcast trivia, #playful banter, #obscure 80s trivia.

Dubai chocolates are just Peppermint Crisps that went to private school - thank God we never fell for trends in the 80s.What was going on with Mastermind? Dori tells us how she made it a game for one whereas some of the covers suggested it was a game more enjoyed as a ménage à trois.We invent a new social network just for fans of The NeverEnding Story while trying to figure out what make s song an 80s song.Catherine O’ Hara was an 80s legend and not even her trying to run someone over with an ice-cream truck will change our mind.In a no way obvious attempt to get a free cruise, Paulo puts together an 80s Mix Tape that needs to be played on deck.Finally in Two 80s Truths and Lie - R2D2 was slippery when wet, The Muppets encouraged Sex and Violence and Zap it in the hit parade.Mastermind Box Covers & Original Models (00:06:44):https://wearethemutants.com/2017/03/27/cunning-and-logic-the-international-imagery-of-mastermind/https://boardgamegeek.com/image/1032432/mastermindhttps://granapare.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/dscn1854.jpghttps://wearethemutants.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/we-are-the-mutants-grand-mastermind.jpg?w=246https://assets.catawiki.nl/assets/1/a/0/7/a0719580-b4ea-012b-050d-0050569439b1.jpghttps://wearethemutants.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/we-are-the-mutants-mastermind-senha.jpg?w=234https://wearethemutants.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/we-are-the-mutants-royale-mastermind.jpg?w=600Catherine O’Hara Tribute & Situs Inversus:https://people.com/catherine-o-hara-situs-inversus-what-to-know-11896567Scorsese’s After Hours Trailer:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZzb_6LtMjYSeven Minutes in Heaven Movie Review:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlxjeHcRyOI80s Boating & Ocean Playlisthttps://www.msccruises.co.za/cruise-deals/theme-cruises/2025-2026-season/the-80s-and-90s-cruise-2026“Sailing” – Christopher Cross “Orinoco Flow (Sail Away)” – Enya “The Tide Is High” – Blondie “Ship of Fools” – Erasure “Captain of Her Heart” – Double “I Ran (So Far Away)” – A Flock of Seagulls “Kokomo” – The Beach Boys“Caribbean Queen” – Billy Ocean (Sailing on the seven seas - OMDBonus Track  “Ocean Size” – Jane’s Addiction Two 80s Truths and a Lie GameJon Bon Jovi was R2D2: https://web.facebook.com/share/v/18A9iG8Ane/ Zibi & Gang - Zap It In The Zibi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90aeEmiLync#Mastermind, #board game, #nostalgia, #70s, #80s, #gameplay, #game pieces, #cover art, #international versions, #Bill Woodward, #Cecilia Fung, #code-breaking game, #colored pegs, #guessing game, #Wordle, #black and white pegs, #Facebook, #childhood memories, #two-player game, #personal anecdotes, #hairdresser, #game box covers, #Asian version, #European version, #Oingo Boingo, #Dead Man’s Party, #80s music, #synth, #Depeche Mode, #Stock Aitken Waterman, #Jennifer Connelly, #teen movies, #Seven Minutes in Heaven, #high school, #politics, #president, #vice president, #Muppets, #novelty songs, #podcast, #social media,  #algorithms, #Two 80s truths and lies, #Robert Schroeder, #Roy Balkan.

Caffeine is Dori’s mortal enemy, while Paulo regrets eating quite that many I&J Steakhouse Melts. Can you say “In the centre, Mr Cholesterol”?Sure, Alex Honnold did a bit of a climb, but he’s no match for the barrel-obsessed daredevils of the 80s.Michael J. Fox is back on our screens — and he’s not here for a haircut. And while we were finding out where the cast of 1987’s Masters of the Universe are now, we discovered that Scott Bakula’s son has some Quantum Leaps of his own.Movies whose most-related keywords include some variant of “panties” can only mean one thing… and Nazis ruin Two 80s Truths and a Lie.Jump To: - Daredevil Stunts: Modern and 80s Edition (00:02:25) - Shrinking and Michael J.

Paulo is very satisfied with Thomas Anders’ vacation Reels, and a man called Flexasaurus Rex gives us the MTV we remember — complete with the Bat Dance.Speaking of Prince, we look at the Stranger Things effect on his catalogue and the literal seven figures his estate is in line to receive from Spotify royalties.Paulo had a terrible time watching ’80s movies, which means it’s time to get into a white van with a mulleted man.Jump To:Thomas Anders' in Atlantis (00:00:16): MTV Shutdown and Fan Rebuild (00:02:34): https://loudwire.com/coder-built-mtv-rewind-videos-app/https://wantmymtv.xyzStranger Things Spoilers and Prince's Music (00:05:19): https://musictalkers.com/latest-news/10069-prince%E2%80%99s-%E2%80%9Cpurple-rain%E2%80%9D-re-enters-uk-charts-following-stranger-things-finalehttps://deadline.com/2026/01/stranger-things-5-finale-songs-spotify-data-1236676497/Consuming Passions (00:13:48): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_EOP6woNPsFamily Business (00:17:21): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inWcoU8fdYUTwo Truths and a Lie (00:22:47) #1980s, #pop culture, #music, #Thomas Anders, #exotic vacations, #MTV shutdown, #fan project, #MTV experience, #Stranger Things, #music charts, #Kate Bush, #Tiffany, #Prince, #David Bowie, #cultural significance, #generational music preferences, #streaming statistics, #Gen Z, #“Running Up That Hill,” #“I Think We’re Alone Now,” #“When Doves Cry,” #“Purple Rain,” #music revival, #streaming increase, #MTV online, #Flexor Saurus Rex, #music videos, #vintage ads, #80s nostalgia, #British dark comedy, #Monty Python, #Family Business, #Sean Connery, #Dustin Hoffman, #Matthew Broderick, #heist film, #“Disco Take,” #live performances, #music trivia, #“Lady in Red,” #“Splash,” #girls named Madison, #“Gloria,” #Umberto Tozzi, #Laura Branigan.
