80's Flick Flashback

For the month of March, I am taking a break from recording new episodes so that I can highlight some of the other fantastic podcasts that I have had the privilege of being a guest co-host on.

For this one, I will be replaying part of an episode of Totally Rad Christmas with host Gerry D. This was actually the first first time I was asked to guest co-host on another '80s-themed podcast, and Gerry and I became fast friends. Totally Rad Christmas doesn’t just cover '80s Christmas movies. Gerry talks about holiday TV specials, Christmas songs, toys, decorations, and, as his logo states - “If it was gnarly during Christmas in the ’80s, he’s got it covered”.  So get ready to get reacquainted with Riggs, Murtaugh, and Mr. Joshua, and decide if we’re getting too old for this…as Gerry D and I discuss “Lethal Weapon” from 1987 on this special “Totally Rad Christmas” replay episode of the 80’s Flick Flashback Podcast!

Host of Totally Rad Christmas podcast

Creator and host of TRC, Gerry D loves all things ‘80s and Christmas, so naturally he mashed them up to start his own show! He works at Decorator’s Warehouse, the largest Christmas store in Texas. His favorite Christmas presents from his childhood were the Super Powers Batmobile, Castle Grayskull, Voltron, and Mega Man 2 for the NES! Something like that.
