Subjects covered Kevin Smokler is an author and filmmaker. Kevin's documentary Vinyl Nation, is the study of the comeback of vinyl records in America over the last 12 years, the diversification of vinyl fans, and what it means for America in this divided time. Kevin explained that records have come back because we use music and its physical manifestation to seek human connection with others. When asked about the current state of some of the themes discussed his book, Brat Pack America, a Love Letter to 80s Teen Movies, Kevin explained that he was fascinated by how much pop culture from the 80s is a talking point for contemporary issues that are discussed more now than they were then, i.e., Molly Ringwald’s piece in The New Yorker about watching John Hughes in the era of #metoo. Kevin expressed his belief that it's important to submit things we grew up with (and might have loved) to a process of continual reexamination. Kevin is also the author of Practical Classics: 50 Reasons to Reread 50 Books You Haven’t Touched Since High School. Kevin shared some of the process of how the book came about and discussed what it means to designate a book as a classic. He also noted that the best books do two things: pull time forward and carry with them all of the children and grandchildren that they've birthed in the meantime.

BOOK AND PODCAST: "We're describing the ruckus, sir." (1984-1991) How have we not talked about John Hughes? His movies defined what it meant to come of age in the 1980s. But do they continue to ring relevant in this modern age? Or are our memories of these films just misappropriated nostalgia? Such is the question Tim's nervous to ask of today's special guest, author and cultural critic, Kevin Smokler (and ...actually ... it's two questions).00:00:00 PASSABLE INTRO - Tim’s morning voice starts off the show00:02:41 NOT BOB BUT STILL TIM WITH … Kevin Smokler, author of “Brat Pack America: A Love Letter To ‘80s Teen Movies”00:07:34 FILM BUFFER - medium before meaning00:14:01 BRANDING THE ‘90s - and Tim pretends to know “lingua franca”00:24:55 NEW WAVE ROMANTIC - desperately wanting to be in Desperately Seeking Susan00:32:24 POP CULTURE APOCRYPHA - loosing the language of film00:38:02 UNSTUCK IN TIME - and the danger of nostalgia00:44:41 THE BREAKFAST BOOK-CLUB - why write about this00:52:45 THE BREAKFAST BOOK-PLUG - go read “Brat Pack America”00:54:57 CLOSINGS - contacts, plugs and no catchphraseContinue with the conversation Kevin Smokler started by visiting his personal website HERE.Head back to High School via the library with this interview of him discussing ANOTHER book of his HERE.And for a far more intricate and scholarly look at the films of the 1980s, follow the words that make up the sentences in Kevin Smokler's BRAT PACK AMERICA: A LOVE LETTER TO 80S TEEN MOVIES available at your favorite independent bookseller (such as the HARVARD BOOKSTORE) as well as on AMAZON, BARNES AND NOBLE and ITUNES.You can also follow Kevin Smokler on TWITTER @WeegeeThis episode of 20TH CENTURY POPCAST was recorded by ZENCASTR, a high fidelity podcast recording platform that records multiple guests from multiple zip-codes all as if they were in the same room.

From the fictional towns of Hill Valley, CA, and Shermer, IL, to the beautiful landscapes of the “Goondocks” in Astoria and the “ time of your life” dirty dancing resort still alive and well in Lake Lure, NC, ‘80s teen movies left their mark not just on movie screen and in the hearts of fans, but on the landscape of America itself.

Smokler went to Goonies Day in Astoria, OR, took a Lost Boys tour of Santa Cruz, CA and in the present visited retro arcades, mov- ie theaters and record stores.

Kevin Smokler (@weegee) is the author of the essay collection "Practical Classics: 50 Reasons to Reread 50 Books you Haven't Touched Since High School" (Prometheus Books, Feb. 2013) which The Atlantic Wire called "truly enjoyable" and the editor of "Bookmark Now: Writing in Unreaderly Times," A San Francisco Chronicle Notable Book of 2005. His work has appeared in the LA Times, Fast Company, BuzzFeed, Vulture, The San Francisco Chronicle, Publishers Weekly and on National Public Radio. In 2013, he was BookRiot's first ever Writer in Residence. - See more at: http://www.kevinsmokler. com/ Praise for Practical Classics “In this engaging survey of 50 books commonly assigned to teen readers, [Smokler] advocates revisiting them from an adult perspective. Even books we loved in our formative years… may have sailed right over our heads, suggests the author, who argues that only time and experience can prepare us to appreciate them fully.” —San Jose Mercury News “[F]ull of wit and candor... Putting literature to practical use is not a new invention, but what’s refreshing about the practice in this light is how Smokler pits this sort of practical gifting-as-guidance against the reduction of literature to ‘a letter grade and a dusty old obligation.’” —Fiction Writers Review “[S]o much fun…[It] offers a truly enjoyable trip down one’s personal memory lane of books. It’s also a love letter to the act of reading, to continual learning, and to making an effort to slow down and savor the good books in life.” —The Atlantic Wire “If you have been thinking about revisiting the books of your youth or those you have promised yourself to read, but haven’t, this entertaining book provides practical, real-world reasons by you should read them.” -Alan Caruba, Bookviews “[A] fine guide for any adult reader who would return to the classics with a different perspective in mind.” -The Bookwatch “In the short and beguilingly engaging essays that make up Practical Classics, Smokler shows how these works can be relevant and even useful to grownups. Most impressively, he manages to pull this off without sounding stuffy or self-important.” -The Rumpus “Possibly the first self-help book to use literature as its prescription, Practical Classics serves as a primer for personal development, demonstrating how one may apply various literary tinctures to the more trouble- some areas of the Human Condition.... [Smokler] holds forth with confidence and a good slathering of wit about coping with our common, human plight.” -Austin Chronicle
