Welcome to the Retromade Podcast, where we take a nostalgic trip down memory lane and explore the best of the 80s and 90s pop culture.
Join us as we dive into the iconic movies, TV shows, music, fashion, cartoons, toys, and other cultural trends that defined these two decades. From the classic coming-of-age films of John Hughes to the unforgettable TV shows like The Cosby Show, Cheers, The Golden Girls, Friends, and Seinfeld; we’ll explore the moments that shaped our childhoods and continue to resonate with us today.
Get ready to reminisce about the music that dominated the charts, from the hair metal of Guns N’ Roses to the pop hits of Madonna and Michael Jackson. We’ll also take a look at the fads and trends that defined the era, from the neon colors of fashion to the boombox on every street corner.
But it’s not just about the big names and big moments. We’ll also dive deep into the lesser-known corners of 80s and 90s culture, from cult classic movies like The Breakfast Club and Big Trouble in Little China to underground bands that never quite made it big. And of course, we can’t forget the deliciously retro snacks & cereals that were a staple of our childhoods.
Join us as we explore the pop culture of the past, and discover how it still shapes our lives today. Whether you’re a child of the 80s, 90s, or just a fan of retro culture, this podcast is for you. So grab a slice of pizza, put on your favorite band t-shirt, and tune in to the Retromade Podcast.

Stargate | S1E28
Today, we travel back to October 1994 for the science-fiction action adventure movie that spurred a whole tv franchise - Stargate. And as always, we’ll touch on all the other “happenings” of the time in the time capsule.
I’m happy to be joined by Kevin & Eric from the Six Degrees of Schwarzenegger podcast on the Last of the Action Heroes Podcast Network. On Six Degrees of Schwarzenegger, they take a look back at some of their (and our) favorite movies from the golden era of action. There’s plenty of ground to cover, so listen as they take a deep dive and examine the good, the bad, the ugly, and the laughable in these movies. Here's where you can find them:

We're lucky to have actual movie-makers joining me today - Bill Bant & Jason Masek from All 80s Movies Podcast. Born in Philadelphia, Bill Bant would attend film school at the University of Miami where he met Jason Masek and collaborated on Bill's first student film project. After college, Bill would travel the United States entertaining sports fans as a member of the Sports Magic Team. From there, he joined the Miami Dolphins for 10 years as a member of the Marketing/Special Events Department. He would then move to California and pursue his dream of becoming a film maker. After writing two Award Winning short films, which starred Jason Masek, the pandemic would shut down production leaving Jason and Bill to create the "All '80s Movies Podcast" which is now in its 4th season. The podcast covers movies that Jason and Bill grew up with that made them want to make movies and other great or bad movies from the decade. Here's where you can find them:

Michelle has been podcasting for forever, Seth has been watching movies for forever and since they have been friends for forever they decided to combine all three into the Movie Friends podcast.

Customer Reviews
Fantastic Listen
Katie is a great host who keeps it interesting while infusing her show with a lot of relevant pop culture happenings from the time a movie came out. It's an easy listen and I can't recommend it enough
Love This Retro Goodness
Katie is awesome to listen to, she is fun, gets really good guests. I enjoy the love of retro movies, TV, and pop culture references from my childhood in the 80s. The sound quality is good too and it’s a great light tone listen that will put you in a good mood. It is just fun times. Love it.
Bringing it back!
How fun! I love coming across all of those social media reels with throwbacks from the 80s and 90s when new trends originated and went on to become some our most favorite and funny memories. An entire podcast on this kind of stuff is going to be absolutely fantastic. Looking forward to Season 1!!!
