The home workout craze of the 1980s. Some forgotten cereals from the 1970s. Top celebrity crushes of the 80s.
Fall is officially here but the Gen-X nostalgia remains the same. Episode 213 is a loaded show.
It kicks off with a fall back into fitness. The 1980s were a perfect storm of the rise of VCRs and cable television. This culminated in a tidal wave of fitness shows. These were on TV early in the morning, or could be bought on VHS at local stores. We look back at the home fitness craze and some of the classic workout tapes and shows from the 80s.
Not all cereals can dominate breakfast like Rice Krispies or Frosted Flakes. Some of them come in with a roar and quickly fall off the map. We go back in the day to look at some forgotten 1970s cereals. This includes several wacky mascots that need to be seen to be believed.
This week's Top 5 scours the walls of 1980s high school students to find out the biggest celebrity crushes of the decade. Whose poster did you have?
There is, of course, a brand new This Week In History and Time Capsule looking at the original publishing of the classic book The Hobbit.
