Speaker 1 (00:00):
Let's get all the hate out. Okay, let's hate.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Let's do it.

Speaker 3 (00:03):
No, of course I hate Glenn metal, anything that's not
metal metal, right.

Speaker 1 (00:10):
Traditional Cindy Lopper videos.

Speaker 3 (00:12):
Yes, what else do you hate?

Speaker 1 (00:14):
I hate Hall of Oes hairstyles.

Speaker 3 (00:17):
In the eighties, Yes, you do. And you know what
we're gonna call this section holiday holiday hate, That's what
we're gonna call it.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
How about jangle Bells?

Speaker 3 (00:28):
No, because jangle bells still sounds a little happy, and
there is no happiness here. There is only hate.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
This is a trick.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
Listen to the decade of decadents right here.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
Back to the eighties.

Speaker 4 (00:51):
When we start doing changrys, I want you to do
like we used to do on the radio. I want
you to give five things to get you changry. We'll
do that, And I understand why you just want me
to do them, because it fills that precise where you
can say, ladies and gentlemen. He is such a hater,
such a damn hater. Right.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
The bottom line is, you can't erase who you are
at heart, and you know what, stand proud to be
who you are. It's just sad. It's sad that just
hate on music in general. But anyway, I will, I
will see Ladies and gentlemen, you are witnesses here. This

(01:31):
is even before we haven't even started the show.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
You see, you see, you see what I have to
put up.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
With single time, the hate.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
No, you, my friend, are like Richard Nixon. Well, I'm
not a crook. I've earned everything.

Speaker 5 (01:45):
I've got.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
You tape everything, You admit to nothing, You conceal everything.
And then if I were to stumble into your dojo
and find all these tapes, yeah, and bring them up
to the listener court of order in radio, Yeah, you
would say I'm the editor in chief, Yes, I would.

(02:10):
I can do anything, just like Richard Nixon says.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
When you're the president, you can do anything. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:18):
Well, apparently presidents don't have to worry about laws and
getting arrested. But you know what a poor schmoe like
you and me forget to pay a parking ticket and
we can be arrested and taken into custody for six months.
Didn't that just happen to us recently at a Christmas party?

(02:38):
Don't we have like a clip of that or something?

Speaker 4 (02:40):
Tuscanowan, I had a little bit of trouble this holiday.
We were invited to a Christmas party. Now here's the thing. Okay,
we started on our way, we got the time machine,
we started heading back. I was a little bit too
spun out on Christmas snow and rum that I didn't
want to leave Santa Claus at my house because Santa

(03:03):
Claus is nothing but a lush and we don't want
Santa drinking and driving, or the kids don't get presents,
and everything's all anyway. Now, Toscano and I were enjoying
Christmas carols. We were singing along with our radio. We
have a blow punk in the time machine. Of course,
we didn't know we were getting tailed how We didn't
even know how fast we were going.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
I knew how fast I was going. And we were
pulled over.

Speaker 4 (03:26):
We were locked onto the helicopter and we were handcuffed
to the steering wheel and copoted steering wheel of the vehicle,
our vehicle, our time machine, and we were taken to
the North Pole jail.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
We found out that Santa Claus was the mayor.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
But we did get it. We did get a visitor.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
Remember, oh, yes, we did get a visitor.

Speaker 4 (03:49):
We contacted really quick our lawyer, and that is Santa Viz.
Now Santa Viz for any of our listeners that don't
know him, is our lawyer, but he is an impressionist
of both Santa Claus and Elvis.

Speaker 3 (04:05):
Is it Santa Vis or was it Sanvis?

Speaker 1 (04:08):
I think it's Sandviz. That's what my PaperWorks is Sanviz.

Speaker 3 (04:13):
It was Sanvis.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
I'm hoping he calls the hotline or comes in. Well.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
I don't know if he's gonna do that, but I
do know this I just found. Look, I was just
given by production. I was just giving a tape, a
cassette tape, because you know, this happened while we were
back in time. We have the recording of his visit
to us. Let's let me play a little bit of
what Sandvis told Toscano and Chang as we were in

(04:40):
the North Pool jail.

Speaker 4 (04:46):
Well, with some here fellows, ain't no easy road with all,
you know. I mean, we're all going to get the
cold shoulder. I wonder if that fat gully, a red
guy with a red nose, there's got any good blow.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (05:01):
I don't know, Oh Christmas.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
That is, Are you gonna take us out of jail
or what?

Speaker 4 (05:08):
Hey?

Speaker 1 (05:08):
Hey, hey, hey, take it easy.

Speaker 4 (05:09):
You're crazy Italian yay, you ain't strapping oak going on
me right now, I'm calling the shots.

Speaker 1 (05:14):
Hey, ready to go give them some other paperwork. Okay, fellows, fellas,
just what we're gonna do.

Speaker 3 (05:21):
Hey, it's nice to see you. We didn't we knew
that you were real. We you know, we actually thought
that you were just a legend, more than Santa Claus.
But we see that you're not well.

Slash ladies and gentlemen, I'm Shadow Stevens and you must
listen to back to the eighties radio.

Speaker 13 (08:41):
It's the law, It's the most wonderful time.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
Back to the eighties radio. You have just heard stray
cats with jingle bells. Well, thank you for joining us
on this very belated Christmas program. As you heard a
little bit before the song and the break, we did
have a little incident so we weren't able to do
our Christmas show till right now. But first I must
tell you that I must introduce a man whose first

(09:43):
word as a baby was Judas Priest. He was once
kicked out of a punk club in the eighties for
refusing to listen to the Cure because they were too cheerful.
Don't let that leather jacket fool you. This man is
secretly hiding his pair of pastel parachute pants in its
closet and knows the words to every Tears for Fear song.

(10:07):
Tonight and every night.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
We only know him.

Speaker 4 (10:12):
As the chang Merry Christmas. Belated boys and girls, welcome
to the program. On behalf of myself and the exaggerating
Italian stallion Tuscano. I want to thank you all for
waiting anticipating like the Hinds fifty seven commercial anticipation four

(10:35):
the Christmas Show. Obviously you heard what has happened to
me in Tuscano.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
It's a good thing.

Speaker 4 (10:41):
We were not sexually violated, but we were violated in
every place below the knees in North Pole.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
Jail, especially the pocket book. Oh it was terrible. Oh
my god.

Speaker 4 (10:52):
I mean Santa reamed us, I mean a sack over
our heads and beat us for whatever we had. I
had to give him all my Christmas dust, that sut
of a bitch.

Speaker 3 (11:06):
Anyway, I know you even lost your glasses. Now you're
just wearing a player of fluorescent glasses that I think
that McDonald's used to give away with their happy meals.

Speaker 4 (11:16):
Now, what do you think of my macho man glasses?
My mind, I like them, I apparel, I like them.

Speaker 3 (11:22):
Actually, if you so, let me describe Chain's glasses, because
of course, at our age we need reading glasses and glasses.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
To read the gut. Here very low.

Speaker 3 (11:32):
Blow, but he is he is wearing some pretty interesting
bill Ny the Science Sky glasses with a fluorescent yellow
frame at the front and some type of white uh
legs stretching out to the back of the air.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
Yes, and you're Gray Laker Beanie. Oh yes, what do
you think of that beanie?

Speaker 3 (11:53):
I like the beanie, liked the glasses. Uh, it says Los.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
Angeles laker, thank you very much for wear mine.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
And just to let you know, he's wearing some type
of a red hoodie with black or so don't let's
not talk about any type of fat. Oh it's queen,
very cool sweater. But let's not talk about fashion sense.
Chang does not have it. He matches not. It doesn't
matter to the Chang. All that he cares is that
he's wearing his sweater a queen. By the way, Chang,

(12:26):
I am wearing just because of the occasion. I'm wearing
a Christmas plaid semi formal shirt. Now, is that a Gucci,
because you know, a Chalion. I actually don't even know
what Brandon, No, it's not Gucci. It is, however, one.

Speaker 1 (12:43):
Of these made by Italian children.

Speaker 3 (12:45):
No, it's anyway, this is one and only. Back to
the eighties radio show. Thank you for joining us as
we continue our stride through the nineteen eighties and today,
ladies and gentlemen, we are going to be talking about
those gifts that we did receive back in the nineteen eighties.

Speaker 2 (13:05):
If you were.

Speaker 3 (13:05):
Fortunate enough to survive the eighties and you were fortunate
enough to celebrate Christmas in those years, those awesome years,
because they were, I mean anywhere you look changed, didn't
it seem like the Christmas spirit was much more prevalent
back then. If you went to a mall, malls were

(13:25):
decorated inside outside, they had all I mean all the stores.
It was this exaggerated, this Christmas spirit. There was Santa's Village,
there were models. They made you feel like you were
at an amusement park.

Speaker 4 (13:41):
Some of the malls, you know what an excellent point, man,
do you remember almost every store was decorated in some
of that fake pine garland all across.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
Some had lighting.

Speaker 4 (13:55):
To me, the malls in the eighties during Christmas was
very reminiscent if sat to Clause was real and out
and about in town, and elves were really decorating them
all exactly. You know, Christmas in the eighties had an
essence and innocence.

Speaker 1 (14:12):
I think the last.

Speaker 4 (14:15):
Aura of innocence Christmas touched in the eighties.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
Anybody that had.

Speaker 4 (14:19):
Children, or possibly was a child or a young individual,
or if you look back, it was more joyous, it
was more easy, more carefree. You felt it everywhere you went.
You know, Christmas tree lots were opening up. You saw
them getting built up on the corners at your favorite stores.

(14:42):
Some cities would start decorating their streets.

Speaker 3 (14:45):
Nobody was embarrassed. Yeah, nobody was embarrassed to say Merry Christmas.
You had certain neighborhoods, you had actual afloat with Sanna
when and the els would come around and yes, give
gifts and stuff like that. Listmas music. You could hear
it everywhere, not only on the radio, but at malls,
at stores, in the bathrooms, at restaurants. I mean, Christmas

(15:09):
spirit took over.

Speaker 4 (15:11):
I think most cities back in the nineteen eighties during
Christmas had one or a few neighborhoods where they would
just deck the whole entire street or entire area out
with everyone doing Christmas lights, cars, driving through, walking through people.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
It did over and beyond.

Speaker 4 (15:33):
I think in the eighties with Christmas putting up figurines,
building villages.

Speaker 1 (15:37):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (15:38):
And I'm going to tell you right now, anybody that
knows me by now, I'm a colorful cat. I used
to deck the halls at the chang Residents when my
kids were growing up, in the eighties, and I was like,
I was probably like Chevy Chase Christmas vacation.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
I did the roof line?

Speaker 3 (15:56):
Were you like that? Do you put a million lights?

Speaker 1 (15:59):
Oh, I've had.

Speaker 4 (16:00):
I had every entire roofline on my roof done.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
I had a chimney done.

Speaker 4 (16:05):
I had picket fencing with lights around my front yard.
I would cut out wood figures put them out there.

Speaker 1 (16:15):
I would throw fake snow.

Speaker 4 (16:17):
I had a Santa Claus collection, me and the wife,
and we would display it in the window, all types
of various Santa Clauses with the backdrop of Santa's living
room a little fireplace. I mean, we used to go
all out. We would put a Christmas hat on our dog, Gunny.

Speaker 6 (16:34):
You know.

Speaker 3 (16:35):
Do you remember back then there were entire neighborhoods, and
certain neighborhoods were very, very famous and popular. You could
go to these neighborhoods and literally have to park far
away walk. It was an event you went with a
family because every house in the neighborhood was decorated so much.
It was like going to an amusement park.

Speaker 4 (16:55):
Oh, there was a neighborhood I remember going to in
Lakewood and missus Chang would take the three girls when
they were little, before the baby was thought about, and
we used to go to this one neighborhood and we
would literally have to park blocks away, you know, just
like Halloween when you go to neighborhoods and get canny.

(17:16):
It was literally like that, you know, And we would
just take the kids walking through these neighborhoods and at
one cult de Sac where all the streets would intertwine
into each other and you have everybody would have to
go to the cult de sac. A gentleman and his wife,
who was an elderly gentleman, looked just like Santa. They

(17:36):
dressed up like mister and Missus Claus. They fixed up
their front porch to where it looked straight out like you.

Speaker 1 (17:44):
Were still you know what I'm means.

Speaker 4 (17:47):
They had his family around, dressed up in characters, and
it was something to me that was genuine.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
It was spectacular.

Speaker 4 (17:56):
I thought that him and his wife, to me, were
probably two of the greatest human beings that he could
ever envision or see with my own eyes and not
even know to do that. I kind of think nowadays
that's a lost treasure anybody out there that is still
very lucky and fortunate to have their children go through
this experience. You are blessed, Believe me, and I'm not

(18:19):
just saying blessed like people say on social media. I'm blessed.
Look at my Ferrari. I'm blessed. You're really blessed.

Speaker 3 (18:27):
So much has been lost since then. I remember a
commercial that I'm gonna let you hear right now, and
it was called Santa's Village. Check this out.

Speaker 14 (18:40):
You can see Santa in the winter time because right
now he's at Santa's Village in the San Bernadino Mountains.
Thirteen big rides provide fun for the whole family, visit
the pettings of see Santa's Reindeer. There's food and treats
from the Pixie Fantry, the Good Witch's Bakery, and lots more.
Santa's Village is fun, forest and fantasy all rolled into one.
Santa's Village in the clear sand Bernardino Mountains on Highway eighteen,

(19:03):
just thirty minutes north of San Bernardino, now open weekends
and holidays.

Speaker 3 (19:07):
Now, Chang, do you remember Santa's Village. This is a
commercial that they used to play a lot in the eighties.
It was an entire village in the San Bernardino Mountains
that you could go and there were the l mean,
it was literally going into another world and you would
be able to go visit all the candy stores, the

(19:27):
place where they made toys, and they had elves, and
they had the reindeer, and they had Santa and his wife.
That place is gone as far as I know.

Speaker 1 (19:38):
Oh yeah, now did you ever get to visit that well?

Speaker 3 (19:42):
As a young boy who was little and I was
the only child, a lot of people would say, you know,
you were very spoiled, and so I can tell you
to that I could tell by your shirt. The answer
is no. My family would say, you know what, No,
we're not going to spend money to go three hours
to have us wait in line for three hours and

(20:03):
then have to come back by five o'clock because they
closed because it's too cold. What we're gonna do is
we're gonna go down the street to Marinos in Bellflower,
eat some pasta. We're gonna come home. What's better than that?

Speaker 4 (20:13):
You know, I'm amazed that your dad didn't show his
belt clip and that chromed out forty five and get
you in. That would have been very Christmas l Now,
I'm gonna tell you right now, Tiscano. I did visit
that one year in the eighties, did you Yes?

Speaker 3 (20:31):
Did they charge before you went in?

Speaker 1 (20:33):
Yes, of course there's a charge and no.

Speaker 3 (20:36):
And what about parking? Did you pay for parking as well?

Speaker 2 (20:40):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (20:40):
Rats, I wonder my.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
Da boss a few bucks to go in for me
and my girlfriend.

Speaker 4 (20:44):
I was already a teenager past teens, right, I was
a late teenager.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
As a matter of fact. I went with my.

Speaker 4 (20:54):
First daughter, Jasmine's mother the ex We went together and
it was very enchanting.

Speaker 1 (21:02):
It was really really cool to see.

Speaker 4 (21:05):
I'm very glad that I got the experience, although I
wish I would have been able to be fortunate enough
to experience it when I was a bit younger with
my parents, you know, and some other family members. Before
you know, life took its crazy turns and I turned
into this crazy individual the chairing.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
But it was awesome.

Speaker 4 (21:26):
If I would have had a cell phone, I would
have been taking like twelve hundred recording.

Speaker 3 (21:32):
Yeah, I can imagine. Yeah, it looked really cool. And
as a kid, I always wanted to go, and my
mom and dad always said, you know what, well, I
would Actually my parents were divorced by then, and they
will always blame each other. Your mom doesn't want, you know,
and your dad doesn't want this, so who knows the
point is I never got to go you know what,

(21:52):
off Don't cry for me, Argentina. See that we're going
off key a little bit. The way you mentioned that,
I too similarly had to go through my parents getting divorced.
I was already in my teens, probably just like you.
My parents got separated.

Speaker 4 (22:05):
All kinds of crap hit the fan when I was
about fourteen and a half. My old man took off
about fifteen. That's that's a whole nother story of the
whole show on the couch. So it was like that too,
you know what I mean. My Christmas years of high
school were pretty much with the homeboys, my homeboys, you

(22:27):
know what I mean, and doing our own Christmas festivities.

Speaker 14 (22:33):
You know.

Speaker 4 (22:34):
I was very fortunate, just like many others probably about
my age, that grew up in a time where a
neighborhood did all that. My neighborhood used to decorate every house,
you know. Every tree was wrapped in butcher paper with
red ribbon around it like a candy cane.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
Was this in Monapello.

Speaker 4 (22:52):
This was in Montabello, one third Street, right boulevard between
Los Angeles. We were the very crest of southside uh Montabello,
so you know what I mean. So I was su
anno because with your boulevard separated north Wanntabello, which were
the kids that had a little bit more. They went
to the upper scale type schools, you know what I mean,

(23:15):
kind of that.

Speaker 3 (23:16):
So you were close to that. You were close to
the five Freeway over there.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
Oh no, no, no way, no way, bro I was
the five Freeway was far away from me.

Speaker 3 (23:24):
Sorry, was it the sixty or the ten?

Speaker 4 (23:27):
I was closer probably to the six oh five, but
you had you would have to go to Pico Deveda,
so you would have to cruise up with your boulevard.
So I was on the very crest of southside Montabello.
So yeah, I grew up in a neighborhood that did
all that crap. My neighbor trip out of this. My
neighbor Ray Vargas, used to dress up like Santa Claus

(23:49):
and then go play the guitar at old folks homes,
children's hospitals, cancer centers, homeless shelters.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
I mean this dude.

Speaker 4 (23:59):
Was freaking cool man, and he would dress up like Santa.
So when I was ten years old, this cat used
to let me go sing with him in his garage. Honest,
this God's true. So he would have me start dressing
up like an elf.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
So I forgot.

Speaker 4 (24:20):
I think it was my mom or maybe my sister.
Maybe somebody made me an elf costume. And at ten
years old, I started going with him to all these things.

Speaker 1 (24:29):
He was saying I was an Elf. We literally used
to sit in.

Speaker 4 (24:33):
The garage nights before wrap up little trinkets, put him
in this big velvet bag, and then me and him
would take off in his El Dorado Cadillac. He was
a badass dude, this guy, you know what I mean.
He used to like to have some swigsters. Real cool dude.
So I portrayed his alf and I would have to sing,
you know, and they're all candy, and you know, do

(24:54):
whatever he wanted me to do. So I had that
essence of what Christmas was with this cat, and I'm
very glad that my children in the eighties had that
very same essence.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
But the tail end of.

Speaker 4 (25:07):
It, you know what I'm saying, nice, So it was really,
really cool and talking about witted bullvar. I remember when
Woodyard Boulevard and Beverly would decorate the streets. I remember
when there was Christmas parades. A lot of cities had
Christmas parades still in the eighties.

Speaker 3 (25:25):
They did, and it would hang these beautiful and elaborate
Christmas decorations from the light or the posts, you know,
the lampposts on the street. Especially in Whittier. It was
just very elaborate. I mean, if we were to ask
the audience listening, how did they fix your neighborhood when

(25:45):
you were a kid in the nineteen eighties, what was
it that stood out that made you feel like it
was just such a different time. Think about it. Let

Speaker 10 (28:23):
The time is now, the place is in, and.

Speaker 16 (28:26):
The whole wide world is spelled wheel chairs. My name
is deep see with the mic in my hand, and
I'm chilling. Ain't cooling just like the snowman. So open
your eyes, Linen. I said, Hey, we want to say
Merry Christmas in Happy Dow.

Speaker 17 (28:38):
Yeah once if that's a back to the eighties radio
a believe it up up.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Be later Christmas show. Oh we're going to.

Speaker 4 (29:01):
Keep this going almost like relatives are people that are
popping in a couple of days after Christmas that they
give you their gifts, which is always nice. You get
a late gift, you know what I mean, Although all
the wrapping and all the mess is pretty much cleaned up.
You know, you already got that roub of picking up
all those loose pine leaves. But that's the way it goes.

Speaker 1 (29:22):
Tonight. We got, oh god, we have so.

Speaker 4 (29:25):
Many gifts that you people haven't even opened.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
It's insane, right, that's kinda yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:29):
And as you know, speaking of gifts, let me ask
you this, was there a gift that you always wanted
to get in the eighties for Christmas, either for yourself
or that you wanted to get for your kids, but
you never did? Because I can tell you a gift
that I always wanted for myself and I didn't get

(29:50):
it until later in life, and I got it for
myself and it just it it wasn't the same.

Speaker 18 (29:54):
Right.

Speaker 3 (29:55):
Well, I'm going to tell you two things, two things
that I always wanted. Because of my my dad's cheapness,
he always found an excuse not to get me the
real thing. But I always wanted to get a diamondback
Viper BMX bike and I never did. What he did

(30:15):
is he went to Toys r Us and got me
a Murray. There were two big cheap brands that used
to compete against each other. It was Murray competing against
Huffy all the time. And so what he did is
he got me a Murray. And I know I will
never forget because I chose the bike seventy nine dollars
that Toys r Us. I actually wanted a diamondback Viper,

(30:39):
but didn't you know obviously he was like two hundred
dollars three hundred dollars back then, so very expensive bikes,
And so I didn't end up getting that until later
in life that I could afford to get it on
my own. But it just wasn't the same. You know,
another thing that I wanted to get for myself that

(31:00):
I always wanted, and I've told the story before in
the show, and I will never forget it because I
tell people and I make it as a joke, but
at the time it was hurtful, and I always wanted
to get one of those miniature arcade games. I actually
wanted the Donkey Kong game. They used to sell them
at thrifties. They used to sell them at Toys r US.

(31:22):
They were sixty nine dollars back then, so they weren't cheap.
My mom said, no, that the video games are going
to rot your brain, so you're not getting them. And
one day, this must have been nineteen eighty three, because
we had just gotten cable and I remember just you know,
I was just old enough to watch.

Speaker 1 (31:43):
Cat People at twelve years old.

Speaker 3 (31:46):
Anyway, so my mom says, when I get home, I
got your surprise. Close your eyes after I ate my lunch,
and so I closed my eyes. I turn around. She's
in the kitchen and she goes, I know you wanted
to pack man little game before and that got you
pac Man. And so she goes, open your eyes. And
when I opened my eyes, my mom was holding a
tortilla that she had cut in the in the shape

(32:08):
of pac Man. She goes, here's your pac Man. Now
eat your lunch and shut up.

Speaker 1 (32:13):
Now what that that is? Soul gangster?

Speaker 7 (32:16):
You know what, man?

Speaker 1 (32:17):
I gotta, I gotta, I gotta tell your mom that
is bad ass. That is one of the bad asses
things I've ever heard of.

Speaker 4 (32:25):
Parent do I would have loved that cruel man, That
was cruel. If I would have been back there, I
would have said, oh that business just gorde you just
that poker.

Speaker 1 (32:34):
That's the weird.

Speaker 4 (32:35):
And I would have tried to take pictures of your
face so discouraged. That poor totalion that was so sad,
just got jacked by his his his Mexican mom.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
Old school stuff.

Speaker 3 (32:48):
Yeah I didn't cry, but it You know, one of
those times when you wanted something as a kid and
you were so hurt because your parents told you know,
but you wanted it. That's what I felt. It was
really bad.

Speaker 4 (32:58):
Now you asked me to two questions. What gift did
I want as a as a kid and didn't get?
And what gift didn't I get my kids that I
would have liked to have get them?

Speaker 1 (33:13):
Correct?

Speaker 4 (33:14):
Yeah, okay, mine too was a bicycle. I wanted a
Shwin scrambler.

Speaker 3 (33:21):
Oh okay, okay, okay, yeah, I.

Speaker 19 (33:24):
Know I know that I was.

Speaker 1 (33:26):
Now here's the thing.

Speaker 4 (33:28):
I had already thrashed a couple of Swins that I customized.
They didn't have the frame capacity because we were jumping curbs,
We were jumping over my buddy's mom's pinto m We
were taking our bicycles on the roof on ladders and

(33:51):
riding down. We would try to ride across retaining walls.
That we were badass kids. So anyway, with all these
page my dad was, you know, he was old school.
He used to say, seeing that, you look up so
many bikes, you know, constantly, and we're very fortunate because

(34:12):
the mechanic down the street was a welder, so he
always welded our stuff back together. He customized all our
bikes to be like a dirt bike Eagle Canevel Bikes.
So anyway, you know, that was the first thing I wanted.
My dad and my parents were like, no, we're not
going to get you that bike.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
Go for a hound Bucks.

Speaker 4 (34:31):
You're either going to break it or you're get care
of this and get it stolen, just like your last bike.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (34:38):
Now I had a bike, badass bike. It was top
of the line, huffy bike.

Speaker 13 (34:42):
You know.

Speaker 4 (34:43):
It was one that went against the scrambler. Yeah, and
Murray thing was you know, it was tough. It even
had a shock on it. I was I was cruising hard, right,
you know. I had a Raleigh Fingers baseball card with
the San Diego Padres and I was hauling ass, taking
no names on my hupy.

Speaker 1 (34:59):
Anyway, I didn't. I got the first evil caniegl replica.

Speaker 3 (35:07):
Oh how did that feel?

Speaker 1 (35:09):
You know, As you could tell, my ego started very
very young. It's very very sad.

Speaker 4 (35:15):
So that was the start of the ego because I
had the evil Canegral bike, I had glasses. I didn't
really give a damn about too much. I was always
out for the reaction. So I was always the one
that did everything first. And now I used to want

(35:35):
to be a stunt man when I was a kid.

Speaker 3 (35:37):
Oh so did I, especially after watching The Unknown stunt
Man with with Lee Majors and Heather Thomas.

Speaker 11 (35:45):
I'm not fall from a tower building. I'm not roll
the brand new car because I'm the unknownsed men they red.

Speaker 13 (35:54):
Bergs start.

Speaker 2 (35:57):
Or that show.

Speaker 4 (35:57):
I mean it was over, Yeah, you know I. I
would jump off my bike like it was a horse.
When we played Cowboys and Indians, I was always the Indian.
I was the first one to run down the street
on Bluff Road and jump on the train as it
would take you into downtown LA. We just have a
black anyway, back to the eighties, Okay. The one thing

(36:19):
I wanted to get myself in the eighties and I
couldn't because I had obligations. I wanted to get myself.
I was very close to this, getting myself a Hardy Davidson, a.

Speaker 1 (36:38):
Real real one, a real hog. You know there's going
to be a low boy of spring.

Speaker 3 (36:46):
See those are big boy toys. Yeah, it's very expensive.

Speaker 4 (36:49):
You can't do those things when you have a kid.
So I never bought myself that hardy. Here's a kicker
hung around with hogs. I hung around with gangsters on
motors goes. But I didn't get myself a harty. So
I was always very let down that I never got
myself a hardy. But anyway, the joy of children that
ended all that, you know what I mean. But I

(37:09):
did by myself a nice diamondback mountain bike that I
enjoyed through the eighties into the nineties.

Speaker 3 (37:16):
What are some of the gifts that you really were
annoyed that you received back then?

Speaker 1 (37:21):
Are you ready? Number One? My aunt who lived in Alaska.
We only seen her on holidays.

Speaker 4 (37:27):
She was very My aunt was like a Mexican Karen,
if you can dig what I'm saying. So you know,
she would come into town and like lavish the family
on Christmas with gifts and with my dad's sister.

Speaker 1 (37:41):
You know, my dad would get pissed. My mom loved it.

Speaker 4 (37:43):
You know, they'd sit around, drink wine, center of attention.
Very beautiful woman. She made a lot of money in cosmetics.
She would always come with these extravagant gifts. I mean,
I never complained about any of the shit she got me.
She always got me bad as shit.

Speaker 9 (38:00):
Lady.

Speaker 4 (38:00):
I only saw maybe once or twice, and if somebody died,
I'd see her again. I got some She always knew
what I wanted. I got the best gi Joes. I
got all that crap from her. She knew I was
in ninth grade, okay, and she hadn't seen me or
knew about my hair. She rolled up with not one,

(38:20):
not one, not one. Two members only jackets. That's why
I hate members only jacket. Yeah, a wine colored one
and a beige one.

Speaker 3 (38:29):
This I've had both. I think it's time you take
us out for a break before we go into a
special segment here. I'm back to the eighties radio that
we like to call what I hate about Christmas in
the nineteen eighties.

Also something from the Great You too. Christmas, please baby

and Tuskana. We're opening up some gifts of our past.

(44:36):
I want to remind any of you cats out there.
I'm going to ask you guys, if you want to
hit us on social media, on our radio platform where
we have comments, let us know what is the worst
gift that you hated that you got in the eighties
or now we want to hear that.

Speaker 1 (44:55):
Now me and.

Speaker 4 (44:56):
Tuskana have been shooting the breeze, and Tuscano has pulled
up old photos of himself growing up in the eighties,
and pictures of his dad and ladies and gentlemen, boys
and girls. I am always painted to be the hater.
You can never take me serious. I exaggerate. All the

(45:19):
things my wife says about me when I brag about
my sex life are true, but here it's not. I've
seen a picture of mister Tuscano. I don't know how
old this gentleman was, but picture this nineteen sixty eight,
made a couple of pony beds, didn't come riding through.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
But everybody likes you.

Speaker 4 (45:44):
Your charm, you have a good job, you're a family,
You're respected, But you got a little bit behind the saddle.
Mister Tuscano looks exactly like the man that visits you
at home. There is a couple of forty fives and
shoulder posters up under his very pressed, finely quality quality

(46:11):
type snug suit with Matt Cheen hair. His hair is
so slick and black and tight. You cannot leave DNA
with that hair, you know.

Speaker 3 (46:21):
I can tell let me tell you a funny story
about my dad back in the nineteen eighties, because he
used he trained me up, especially in nineteen eighty on
the dot nineteen eighty. So I am eight years old
in nineteen eighty and by that time nine years old
something like, yeah, nine years old, and at nine years old,

(46:42):
they used to dress me up in suits all the time,
especially when we used to go eat at this this
we're in Downy off of Imperial Boulevard, close to the
Boying Company. You know they used to make the space
shuttle there. Yeah, well, there used to be an Italian restaurant,

(47:04):
a little hole in the wall, and my dad I
never knew why. My dad always used to dress me
up in a suit, and he always.

Speaker 1 (47:10):
Real quick interrupt. Was that next door to a liquor shop?

Speaker 2 (47:14):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (47:14):
It was, now before you continue, I don't know if
you know this several years ago. I'm not sure when
it happened. That place was strong arm robbed and the
owner was shot and killed. Really, yes, yeah, it was
an extra streeker store.

Speaker 3 (47:32):
It was an actually liquor store, I hope. I don't
know if it's the same restaurant.

Speaker 4 (47:37):
I know exactly when you walked in this place was.
I used to take my kids there too.

Speaker 19 (47:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (47:41):
It was a you walked in, it was kind of dim,
very dim lighting, and they had little candles in a
little red like jar or something, so they glowed inside.
And right next to the kitchen that faced I mean
you couldn't see the kitchen, but you know where the
waiters came in and out of. They had a frame

(48:02):
and it looked like a waterfall and it was plugged
into the wall. You remember that.

Speaker 1 (48:07):
So it's the same place.

Speaker 3 (48:09):
I forgot the name of it. I'll try to remember.
But anyway, my dad I didn't know.

Speaker 4 (48:13):
Did they not have the colors of the Italiano somewhere
on the windows? Or maybe it was the canopy because
I remember.

Speaker 1 (48:21):
I think it was a canopy. Yes, it was the
canopy of its own.

Speaker 4 (48:25):
And then you had that liquor store on street A
street level was a street phase and the entrance was
like you walk right in, you know, there was no
big entry on the inside, correct right in and then
it's dark lighted, yes, And then next door was that
liquor store.

Speaker 3 (48:44):
In the front was amazing. The food was amazing. Oh yeah,
And it's interesting because my dad used to always dress
me up in a suit when we would go to
that restaurant, and he goes, anytime you're going to go
into an Italian restaurant, you'd thread with a suit. You
make yourself known there that you're Italian. I'm like, okay,

(49:05):
all right, dad, and so I did. Anyway, that was
That's my little story. But small world that you actually
know that restaurant.

Speaker 4 (49:13):
Yeah, because during the eighties, you know, me and missus
Chang hooked up.

Speaker 1 (49:18):
In the mid eighties, later eighties. I had my kid
in eighty seven.

Speaker 4 (49:24):
She had her kids in eighty five and eighty six,
so the girls, our three girls were exactly one year apart.

Speaker 1 (49:31):
So we got together in eighty eighty nine. We got together. No.
Eighty eight, we started dating. We got together.

Speaker 4 (49:41):
We moved together in the later eighties through the nineties
and Downy But we used.

Speaker 1 (49:47):
To go to that very same restaurant.

Speaker 4 (49:49):
As a matter of fact, down the road on Downy Road,
there was a ballpark and that's where my children first
started playing Little League baseball.

Speaker 1 (49:59):
So a lot of time times.

Speaker 4 (50:02):
When they were playing baseball, we would go to that
Italian restaurant, order pizza or sitting there in chill.

Speaker 3 (50:08):
Yeah, that phenomena talking about Yeah, their pizza was phenomenal there.

Speaker 1 (50:13):
Now, you know what's so funny, ladies and gentlemen. I
don't want to take it's too much out of context.

Speaker 4 (50:18):
Our fathers were so similar in the way they were,
both of them, no nonsense kind of guys.

Speaker 1 (50:25):
Both of them.

Speaker 4 (50:25):
Well, my dad was a decorated Korean vet. You know,
three runs, crazy son of a gun from the hood.
You know, they had no problem with being physical. But
yet I think men like our fathers could scare people
verbally and with their facial expressions, with their gestures, as

(50:47):
opposed to what we have nowadays.

Speaker 1 (50:49):
You know, people polling out gats and getting all out
and shit.

Speaker 4 (50:53):
So it's crazy because when we went to a Mexican
restaurant or a restaurant where it was heavily more or Latino,
my old man always made us dress up to the teas,
you know, pretty much act like Pancho Villa.

Speaker 3 (51:08):
Yeah, at different times. Man, it was a time where
you respected more, you were, you dressed nicer. I mean
even people that went to McDonald's. Back then, you went
to a fast food I mean, you didn't dress up
in a suit, but you can tell people the adults,
they all dressed up nicer because you're going out. Regardless
if it was a less expensive or more affordable kind

(51:28):
of a deal, you were still going out and it
was still time with a family. And when you had
time with a family, you wanted to look good. That's
what nice clothes were there for. And during Christmas time,
my friend, and you'll know if you remember everybody listening
that when it was Christmas time and you went to
the mall, but people dressed differently.

Speaker 1 (51:50):
And yes, people dressed up to go to the mall.

Speaker 3 (51:54):
Yeah, yeah, And it was just a cultural thing. But
it was so nice when we look back now, and
it was just a nicer period of time where we
felt that we made society better by doing certain things
like that. Our parents thought the same thing. We didn't

(52:16):
think everything was laid back. I mean you couldn't put yeah,
I remember, you couldn't put your feet on the table.
I mean my family, you couldn't put your feet on
the table. You couldn't burp at the table, or you
get smacked because it was disrespectful. But anyway, we digressed,
going back to the nineteen eighties, ladies and gentlemen, we
told you we were going to do a special segment

(52:37):
called Things We Hated back in the nineteen eighties for Christmas.
So here are some of the things that we hated
about Christmas back in the nineteen eighties. Chang take it away.

Speaker 4 (52:53):
Oh, I hated back during Christmas in the nineteen eighties
going to a and being mistook for a woman and
getting sprayed with perfume as I walked in.

Speaker 3 (53:06):
You know what I hated about Christmas back in the
nineteen eighties going to the malls to the cologne section
and not getting the little samples because they were all out.
I used to love getting the little Remember they used
to give sample cologones, which they I don't even know
if they do anymore. They give you little papers not

(53:28):
to spray on. But before they used to give you
a little tiny sprayer and I used to look forward
to getting them. And I hated when I used to
go to the mall during Christmas time because they would
be all out.

Speaker 4 (53:38):
Do you know what I hated during the eighties during
Christmas brother walking by one of those hickory stores was
they have sausage and cheeses and being practically pronged with
a toothpick to take a sample.

Speaker 3 (53:56):
Yeah, but you know what, they were so good. I
used to get one of those Kibosa sausages and the
cheddar cheese and oh, good times.

Speaker 4 (54:07):
I'm stoned right now, so that does sound good, but
back in the eighties it pissed me off.

Speaker 3 (54:11):
Another thing that I hated about back in the nineteen
eighties during Christmas time is getting gifts that they gave
somebody else, or, of course, since I was a kid,
getting clothing when I really wanted to get a toy.

Speaker 4 (54:26):
I went through that in the seventies. Two cheap ass
family members. Always cheap ass family members are distant friends.

Speaker 3 (54:33):
Socks really, I got one pair of socks and you
could tell they took them from the set of socks.
A pair of socks wrapped in the Los Angeles Times
sports section.

Speaker 1 (54:42):
Nice. What was that like at.

Speaker 3 (54:44):
Ferrels for my brother?

Speaker 2 (54:47):
I have no idea.

Speaker 3 (54:52):
It was a horse racing section. You could tell it
was one of my dad's friends.

Speaker 4 (54:55):
Yeah, you know what I used to hate during Christmas
back in the nineteen eighties, the Salvation Army guys hounded
me for cash and I was a mere youth.

Speaker 3 (55:07):
But they were always nice because you know what they're
they're not allowed to ask you for money. They just
ring the bell.

Speaker 4 (55:11):
Well, I didn't know you couldn't throw the road of
a joint in there with a couple of quarters.

Speaker 3 (55:16):
Oh, there it is.

Speaker 1 (55:18):
I didn't know you couldn't do that. I thought it
was sharing. Yeah, when you joint, you thought sharing, sharing
is carrying. Yes, if we're going to change humanity, change
your mind.

Speaker 3 (55:33):
And back then it was really really taboo.

Speaker 1 (55:36):
But anyways, good better weed back then. Carry on.

Speaker 3 (55:42):
Another thing that I hated back in the nineteen eighties,
And I know a lot of people are going to disagree.
This may make me sound like a hater, but I'm
going to say it. I need to preface it by
saying that I loved all the Rudolph the Raid Nose
reindeer cartoons that came out that were from the sixties
or seventies, those like Little Stop Motion. But I hated

(56:02):
I absolutely hated that. When I used to want to
watch TV at night, they used to show nothing but
Charlie Brown Christmas and I used to hate Charlie Brown.

Speaker 1 (56:11):
Wow, I love Charlie Brown. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (56:14):
Okay, let's see there it is. See I'm a hater too.

Speaker 1 (56:16):
You're a hater too.

Speaker 3 (56:18):
Yeah, but it's okay when I do it though.

Speaker 1 (56:20):
Yeah, that's the thing I mean, I can't when you
do that.

Speaker 4 (56:24):
I think I want to ring the bells like I
used to when Catholic Church as an ULTI boy, because
I would have to ring the bells to all the
stuff that's you know that you hated so and so
was said.

Speaker 1 (56:36):
I don't want to say what I was going to say.
I don't want to offend anybody.

Speaker 4 (56:39):
You know what I hated during Christmas back in the
nineteen eighties going to Mervin's or any other department store
and having to wait and take a number.

Speaker 3 (56:48):
Yes, And you know what sucks really bad as well,
when you were a kid and you went with your
mom shopping and she had to try out clothing in
those days, is because you were there to wait thirty
minutes while they tried out clothing.

Speaker 4 (57:04):
You know what I hated back in the nineteen eighties
during Christmas having to wrestle other parents at Toys r
US for a toy that was a hot Now was.

Speaker 3 (57:16):
That still a thing that people would fight over, like
like Black Friday? Or was that just the nineties?

Speaker 4 (57:23):
It was brutal back then, not as bad as Black Friday,
but it was hectic, a lot of pre Karens, good times, ah.

Speaker 3 (57:30):
The memories of Christmas in the eighties, ladies and gentlemen,
when the world seemed a little bit brighter, the music
a little bit warmer, and the gifts under the tree
were wrapped in pure magic. But whether you spent your
holidays rocking out like Chang Too Wham, or maybe you
were unwrapping your first walk man, or maybe you're just

(57:51):
soaking up the glow of those big, colorful Christmas lights,
one thing we can tell you here back to the eighties,
the spirit of the season was alive everywhere and it's
still and all of us that went through then. So
as we celebrate here back to the eighties a belated
Christmas show, we want to thank you, our listeners, for
taking this nostalgic trip with us. You're the reason we

(58:13):
keep this eighties flame alive, sharing the laughter, memories and
the music that shaped us. Until next time, stay safe,
stay groovy, and keep those eighties vibe alive in your heart.
May Christmas, Happy Holidays, and as always, we will see
you next time when we take you back to the eighties.

Speaker 1 (58:34):
You've been listening to back to the eighties radio.

Speaker 4 (58:36):
Once again, we were held hostage and violated by the
North Pole Police Department. Sorry we couldn't do the show earlier,
but we thought why not. We will be like a
hangover still on your mind. We want to wish you
guys all a happy new year, a safe new year. Remember,
change comes with chang ha ha ha chang saying good night.
