In this episode of Old Mates New Laughs, Brendan, Andy, and Mike rewind the clock to the golden age of 80s TV commercials—a time of catchy jingles, bizarre mascots, and ads that definitely wouldn’t fly today!


We’re breaking down:

📺 The commercials we still can’t get out of our heads

😲 The ones that made us say, "How did they get away with that?!"

🚫 And the ads that would NEVER be made now


Of course, we’ve also got our usual nonsense, including:

📢 What We Learned This Week

🎬 Andy’s 1-Star Horror Corner (brace yourself, it’s a "good" one)


It’s another fun-filled episode packed with nostalgia, laughs, and the usual off-topic detours. So grab a cuppa, press play, and let’s take a trip back to the 80s!

And don’t forget—next week, we’re diving into 80s Kids TV! What were your childhood favourites? Let us know!
