Episode Details

This week I’m joined byJason Whissell—host of It's Not That Bad & There Can Only Be One—as we build the ultimate ‘80s guilty pleasures mixtape. From synth-heavy pop anthems to actors throwing their hat in the musical ring, these are the songs that some might call cringe—but we call classics!

Let’s be clear: neither of us feels the slightest bit guilty about loving these tracks. But we’re leaning into the term “guilty pleasures”—because let’s face it, “songs everyone else seems to hate but we absolutely love” just doesn’t have the same ring to it!
