If you could go back and spend four years at any fictional high school from the '80s, where would you enroll? Would you hang out with Spicoli at Ridgemont High? Serve Saturday detention with the Breakfast Club at Shermer High? Shoot hoops for Hickory? Learn the African Anteater Ritual at Crandall High? Or maybe you'd choose a school where there's absolutely no chance of being murdered by your classmates or attacked in your dreams. This week on Stuck in the '80s, Steve and Brad are going back to school as we pick the fictional high schools of the 1980s we'd most like to attend — and the ones we'd avoid at all costs. There are plenty of tempting choices. There's Weemawee High from Square Pegs, where being popular might be difficult but there's always the possibility you'll score an invitation to Buffy's bar mitzvah and see Devo perform. There's Ridgemont High from Fast Times at Ridgemont High, which was also the overwhelming favorite among our listeners. Sure, you might have to survive Mr. Hand's history class, but apparently you can have pizza delivered to class, visit a morgue on a field trip and spend the rest of your free time hanging around the mall. Then there's Hickory High from Hoosiers, where school spirit is off the charts and the enrollment is small enough that we might actually have a chance of making the basketball team. We also consider Rydell High from Grease 2, Crandall High from Can't Buy Me Love, Edwina Pearl High from Just One of the Guys and, of course, Shermer High, the center of the John Hughes universe. Shermer seems pretty appealing. Affluent Chicago suburb. Good education. Great house parties. Interesting classmates. Just don't get Saturday detention. Of course, not every fictional '80s high school belongs on the recruiting brochure. We'd probably skip Ampipe High from All the Right Moves unless we're particularly excited about a future at the local steel mill. We're definitely staying away from Beaumont High from Footloose, where dancing is illegal and nearly every adult seems determined to make teenagers miserable. Then there's Westerburg High from Heathers, where the murder rate alone should probably affect its U.S. News ranking. And we're absolutely not enrolling at Springwood High from A Nightmare on Elm Street. Any school where falling asleep during algebra can result in your gruesome death is an immediate dealbreaker. Bunker Hill Military Academy from Taps isn't looking much better. It's about to close, the townies hate you and there's a reasonable chance Timothy Hutton is going to get everyone killed. Otherwise, lovely campus. We also share your picks, including votes for the schools from Square Pegs, Better Off Dead, Summer School, Three O'Clock High and the John Hughes movies. But Ridgemont? Ridgemont wins by a landslide. The High School Class We Wish We'd Had We also have a special interview this week with Todd Shriver and Shawn Curtis, two Indiana high school teachers who have somehow managed to create what might be our dream job. They teach a class about the 1980s. Todd and Shawn tell us how the class came about, what parts of the decade they cover and what today's high school students think about the music, movies, history and pop culture their parents grew up with. Even better, they've managed to bring the decade to life through an impressive collection of interviews with '80s celebrities. Which leaves Steve with only one question: Where does he submit his résumé? Why We Never Really Forget High School There's a reason high school remains such a powerful setting for the movies and TV shows we grew up with. Those four years are when many of us first started dreaming about who we might someday become. It's where we found our people. Where many of us fell in love for the first time — and discovered heartbreak for the first time, too. It's where we were challenged academically, personally and sometimes morally. We made good decisions. We made terrible decisions. And somehow all of those experiences became little pieces of the adults we eventually turned into. And then there's the soundtrack. The songs and movies we discovered during high school never really leave us. Forty years later, one song can come on and suddenly you're not sitting in traffic anymore. You're 17 again. You're driving somebody's terrible first car. You're thinking about someone you had a crush on. You're remembering some completely ordinary Friday night that you had no idea you'd still be thinking about decades later. For four years, we were becoming ourselves. We just didn't know it yet. And if you were lucky enough to go to high school in the '80s, at least you had one hell of a soundtrack while you figured it out. Join Us on The '80s Cruise! Want to take your love of the '80s out of the classroom and onto the high seas? Join Stuck in the '80s on The '80s Cruise, where we'll once again be sailing with an incredible lineup of '80s artists and thousands of fellow fans of the decade.

I talk to filmmakers all the time who say things like, I'm reviving the romcom. Or my film is a homage to 1950s Westerns. The statements encompass so many genres but the truth is, most of the time they don't work. It ends up being a facsimile of something great, which isn't good at all.This is a long way at getting to the point that NIMRODS, opening in theaters on August 14th, is the absolute real deal: a film that will remind you of the GOONIES, as my guest, director Lee Kirk hints at, without trying to remake it. It tells the story of three kids driving cross country to open for Green Day on New Year's Eve, and as you might imagine, complications ensue.I'm so excited to celebrate original art with a director who knows his classics.Lee and I talk about:how he was able to successfully bring back the feelings of 1990s/2000s road trip films;if non-Green Day fans will enjoy the film;how he got started in filmmaking;actors writing parts for themselves and if that's a way in;how new filmmakers can find their voice;what he's learned since his previous features;whether this ever was going to be a biopic and how he feels about the genre;the amazing casting in this film;how he ended up casting himself in the film;the festival strategy for the film and the decision to go theatrical;the luxury of avoiding social media;if being a playwright bleeds over to screenwriting.Memorable Quotes:"We started talking about the movies that we wanted it to feel like, right? So one of the big ones was "Goonies." We talked about "Goonies," but also movies like "Footloose" and "Vacation""It's a film about being a teenager and the struggles that go along with not having all the agency over your life, having these hopes and dreams and beliefs in yourself, and wanting to find something, wanting to build a life, but frustrated with what you got.""Every actor should be [writing their own scripts."" If you like Quentin Tarantino, make your version of "Pulp Fiction," and you're gonna find something in there about what you have to say.""Theatrical was always the goal."Links:Follow NIMRODS On Instagram

This week on Once, When I Was Cool, we're lacing up our dancing shoes and heading back to 1984 for a look at one of the most iconic films of the decade: Footloose. Part coming-of-age story, part musical celebration, and part rebellion against the establishment, Footloose captured the spirit of a generation with its infectious soundtrack, energetic dance sequences, and a message about freedom, self-expression, and the power of youth. More than forty years later, it's still impossible to hear its title track without wanting to get up and move. Starring Kevin Bacon as Ren McCormack, a Chicago teenager who finds himself transplanted to a small town where dancing and rock music have been outlawed, the film pits youthful passion against tradition and fear. Along the way, Ren challenges the town's beliefs, clashes with authority, and inspires a community to rediscover joy. Join us as we revisit the movie that transformed Kevin Bacon into a household name and became a defining piece of 1980s pop culture. We'll explore the film's memorable characters, its surprisingly emotional themes, and the soundtrack that produced a string of hit songs that still fill dance floors today. We'll also discuss whether Footloose is remembered more for its music than its story, how it reflects the cultural tensions of the era, and why audiences continue to connect with its message decades later. So dust off the cassette tapes, crank up the volume, and prepare for a night of dancing that would make the town council nervous. It's time to find out whether Footloose still has the rhythm to get modern audiences on their feet.

David Fleming speaks with Kylie Molnar, choreographer for Footloose, running through August 2nd at Inland Valley Repertory Theatre in LaVerne.

Stuart Mulrain (And Why Not? Podcast) joins me for another game of 2 Movies, 1 Theme: this time, we dive deep into the '80s inspiring dance dramas Flashdance and Footloose!   *Do the studios know what makes for a good dance movie formula or are they just hoping to attract crowds going to something infamous like the Breakin' movies? *Which of the original casting choices for either film might've actually worked better? *Why did both of these often beloved dance dramas surprisingly survive a barrage of negative reviews initially? *Do they rival Rocky and other dramas with their "show (don't tell)" editing approach?   You don't have to dance but please come listen to us jam!     (Disclaimer: I didn't use the trailers as there's none of them that doesn't use copyrighted music, plus, we wanted to focus on the trivia & why the films appeal rather than the great music itself.)

Send in your music story!Some movies are unforgettable because of the plot. Others because of the songs. The real all-timers are the ones where the music and the story become the same thing, and that is exactly the argument we get into while ranking the top 10 greatest movie soundtracks of all time.We kick things off with real-life chaos and quick hits from the music world, including Michelle Branch returning with a new album and tour, plus a wild stat showing vinyl and vintage music players are surging again. We talk about why physical media is back, how collectors think about value, and what actually matters if you want a record player setup that sounds good without wrecking your records.From there, the mood turns heartfelt as we remember Sam Neill and what Jurassic Park meant to a whole generation. Then we swing back to music discovery, picking “Creep” by Radiohead as song of the week and trading the movie moments that introduced us to songs we still love. Finally, we debate the list itself: Footloose, Tarzan, 8 Mile, Purple Rain, School of Rock, American Pie, Shrek 2, Guardians of the Galaxy, and why Almost Famous ends up wearing the crown.Hit play, then tell us your all-time number one movie soundtrack.

We are heartbroken along with the rest of the world to hear the iconic Bonnie Tyler has unexpectedly passed away after getting word that her condition was improving following an emergency intestinal surgery in May. Tyler, who is best known for her Grammy nominated mega hit “Total Eclipse of the Heart” and “Footloose” anthem “I Need A Hero” died in a Portugal hospital, her family saying they would give more details surrounding her death shortly. We go over her incredible rise to fame from a pub singer in Wales, who changed her name twice before making it big, to the story behind “Total Eclipse of the Heart”, a song that was supposed to be sung by another major artist at the time, Meatloaf.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Whether you knew her for "Total Eclipse of the Heart" or "I Need a Hero" (which was made famous in the Utah-made movie "Footloose"), Bonnie Tyler was a major part of the 80s music scene. Overnight, she passed away at the age of 75. Greg and Holly reminisce about her before turning to a new discovery from scientists: elephants aren't actually scared of mice. Wait what?

This week we continue our 80s dance trilogy of episodes (!!!) as Paul, Mark, Kieran and I discuss the film 'Footloose'. Along the way we discuss potato rated trauma, talk about the Michael Cimino version of this film, the 'fatness' of Fat Cowboy, a fictional Party of Five revival, the decline of NCP Car Parks and obviously, I make a food-based comparison to the film.

Andy talks about Beck's album Odelay turning 30, a proto-hip-hop single from 1968, The Fall's final studio album, and a knife falling out of a stranger's pocket. Also, we listen to a clip of a British art critic destroying Jack White's first exhibition. On Rachel's Chart Chat, Rachel from Des Moines explores the soundtrack to Footloose (1984). Follow Rachel on Last.fm here.

Dearest Gentle Listeners,We are at the end of an Era, the end of our beloved episode 7. Gone are the happy Polin moments, stolen first dances, strokes of cheeks and back in with the angst.The Queen interrupts the Footloose event and breaks up the festivities with her vendetta. Francesca boldly declares her love, everyone except Anthony seems to know whats going on, Benedict finally rides the cowboy and last but definitely least, Cressida unmasks Whistledown. These are the 'Days of our Lives.Yours Truly,The Ladies Bridgerton

Luke had a fantastic time on the set of Office Hours Live yesterday, and even made an appearance on the show. Plus, Andrew is surprised how everyone -- including non-basketball watchers like himself and Genevieve -- seem to be swept up in the NBA finals. And they try to set the record straight on Dirty Dancing, Flashdance, Footloose, and Fievel Goes West.

On this episode of The Floor Recap, Brad, Angie, Ashley, and later Nicki break down what they all agree was one of the best episodes of The Floor Season 5 so far. The crew dives into Paige's aggressive gameplay strategy as she goes for multiple duels in a row, narrowly surviving romance movies and machines before wisely retreating to the floor with a time boost and pageants category in hand. Along the way, the panel debates strategy, pacing, and whether anyone should ever challenge a confident woman holding a pageants category. The biggest focus of the episode becomes Kristen's dominant run through the game. The hosts praise her composure, confidence, and killer instinct as she tears through multiple opponents in categories like air travel, track and field, book club, and Barbie. Ashley provides behind-the-scenes insight into how contestants manage pressure and strategy on stage, while Angie passionately argues that Kristen officially became the breakout star of the season. Things get especially heated during the now-infamous Dion vs. Kristen showdown, where the panel celebrates Kristen dismantling Dion after his “walking ESPN” confidence backfires in spectacular fashion. Brad repeatedly jokes about the season's ongoing “alliance” drama, while the cast debates whether contestant edits are shaping fan perception more than actual gameplay. The recap also highlights one of the funniest duels of the season when Austin struggles badly in the spa category, creating what the internet is already calling one of the most chaotic and meme-worthy Floor moments ever. The hosts can barely keep it together as they relive missed answers involving robes, slippers, and hot tubs. As the episode continues, the live chat fills with actual Season 5 contestants — including Eric — which sends the podcast completely off the rails in the funniest possible way. Brad goes from roasting Eric weekly to suddenly becoming his biggest supporter once he joins the stream, leading to nonstop jokes, “drop” requests, alliance accusations, and pure chaos once Nicki arrives late from performing in Footloose.

In 1901, a barn dance in Selma sparked a full-blown war between a preacher, a deacon, and a fiddler. What started as a night of music and foot-stomping turned into a courthouse case, a community divide, and a story that still echoes in Johnston County history. And yes, we'll talk about Kevin Bacon too.

Hosts Nate Wilcox and Ed Legge continue their discussion of Michaelangelo Matos' "Can't Slow Down: How 1984 Became Pop's Blockbuster Year" with a look at the musical movies of 1984: Talking Heads' Stop Making Sense, Flashdance, Footloose, This is Spinal Tap, Repo Man and more.

Happy YFT day! Brandzino calls in from Hawaii with the worst sunburn of her life after discovering a Hawaiian law that is a total buzzkill on the party vibe. Let the people dance! What is this, Footloose?!Meanwhile, Wells is in full Masters Sunday mode, making pimento cheese sandwiches and azalea cocktails like nobody's business! Which actually sparks two very important debates: Does anyone actually like pimento cheese? Are you a Masters person or a Coachella person? Because there is no in-between. To be seen or not to be seen… that is the question. They also get into Wells' hot take that phones should be banned at events, break down their latest favorite things, spiral into an aliens conversation (thanks, Kacey Musgraves

Put on your dancing shoes and crank up your favorite 80s beats, because on this episode of the Gimme Three Podcast, we're cutting some rug. Actor, writer, producer (and dancer) Hannelore Berlin joins Nicholas Ybarra as they deep-dive into three of the 1980s' most impactful dance films. - We start with perhaps the most iconic dance film of the decade, in which Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey made the entire world swoon in 1987's Dirty Dancing. - Second, we explore perhaps the most important film in hip hop history. Harry Belafonte produced this authentic slice-of-life look at the South Bronx and B-Boy culture in Beat Street. - Finally, Kevin Bacon stars in the career-making performance, Footloose.Have you seen these films?

Forget "Footloose" and "Danger Zone"—Dave and Rob are digging into the 80s movie deep cuts you forgot you loved. This isn't your average Top 10; it's a high-octane countdown of the best "non-mainstream" tracks to ever grace the silver screen. In this episode, the guys bypass the obvious radio hits like "Ghostbusters" and "The Power of Love" to celebrate the under-the-radar anthems and moody synth masterpieces that defined 80s cinema. From cult classic montages to the songs that gave indie sleepers their soul, Dave and Rob debate which tracks truly captured the era's magic without leaning on the Billboard charts. Whether it's a gritty rock track from a forgotten action flick or a shimmering pop gem from a teen drama, they're proving that the best movie music often lives in the shadows of the blockbusters.

(00:00-9:34) Still debating the Pointer Sisters and Footloose. Let's take some mushrooms. Seeing a two-headed woman on mushrooms. Brayden Schenn talking about his time in St. Louis. Patrick Berglund would rather quit than play in Buffalo.(9:42-23:23) Look everybody, it's JR. Shoutout to JR for his trade deadline coverage. Lookin' spiffy today for an interview with Tom Stillman. Frustration setting in for Robby Thomas. Jordan Kyrou. Doug Armstrong still keeping some things close to the vest. Jordan Binnington, staying or going?(23:33-34:15) Another segment with JR. JR's son asking the right questions about Jamie Rivers. More two-parters from the audience. No time for In-N-Out during the trade deadline. Parayko had 50 phone calls with his agent during that 24 hour period. Is it Buffalo or did he just not want to leave STL? About 1/3 of the players with no trade clauses across the league. Any deals that were close to happening that fell through? Please don't duck JR's jeep.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Jase and Missy team up for a lively retelling of the sweet, slightly improvised “Footloose moment” she and Cole pulled off during their mother–son dance at his wedding. Missy discovers a hidden family heirloom that makes the perfect wedding gift, and takes a moving look at how the Mia Moo Fund quietly saved a National Guard family during the government shutdown. She and Al also open up about the importance of mentorship, the powerful spiritual breakthroughs she's witnessed, and why being a Titus 2 woman still matters today.

The inevitable decline of civilization takes center stage as the show kicks off with the miserable results of the FACEBOOK SETTLEMENT, confirming Brian's $4.01 payout, followed by a discussion of the SPORTS BETTING SCANDAL, where MLB players are rigging games over prop bets, confirming that gambling is now actively killing sports; moving to the news, the guys celebrate the DENMARK SOCIAL MEDIA BAN and SCHOOL PHONE BANS, which are already proving that teenagers need mandatory digital detoxes, prompting comparisons to Footloose and the revelation that teens are now passing handwritten notes and taking Polaroids. Naturally, things aren't going well for the hyper-rich, as evidenced by the TESLA EXECUTIVE EXODUS and the launch of WAYMO FREEWAYS, which will surely bring chaos to LA, and the ongoing saga of massive capital destruction via OPENAI LOSSES and META AI FAILURES, prompting Mark Zuckerberg to announce his desperate bid to CURE ALL DISEASES with AI, a feat less audacious than the fraud of AI startup FIREFLY AI TRANSCRIPT, which admitted its original "AI" was just human transcriptionists.They then hit a laundry list of digital woes, including the dubious convenience of APPLE PASSPORTS, the creeping dread of Sam Altman's failing WORLDCOIN EYEBALL SCANS, the ridiculous crypto fraud DEFI OFFICE SPACE that literally copied a movie plot, and Coinbase's inexplicable decision to bring back high-risk ICOs; the absurdity continued with the OPENAI LAWSUIT over a suicidal chatbot that suggested the user "Rest easy, King," and the political maneuvering of the REPUBLICAN BROADBAND REDIRECT, which will gut internet access for the underserved to fund the Treasury, but the real threat to humanity remains the clandestine PREVENTATIVE GENE HACKING startup funded by tech billionaires aiming to create modified babies offshore.In Media Candy, they share reviews of the excellent DIPLOMAT, ZOOTOPIA, and the just-released LUSH DOCUMENTARY, confirming our combined Gen-X fragility, before celebrating two definitive wins for reality: the fact that physicists have finally CRUSHED THE SIMULATION THEORY, and the literary brilliance of Joyce Carol Oates' tweet, which expertly called out Elon Musk as uneducated and uncultured.All this and more on this episode of Grumpy Old GeeksSponsors:CleanMyMac - clnmy.com/OLDGEEKS - Use code OLDGEEKS for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.
