Today we’re doing 80s movies everyone should see at least once. Not “the best films ever made,” not “deep cuts,” but the iconic, can’t-believe-you-haven’t-seen-it kind of movies. These are the ones that shaped pop culture, launched careers, defined genres, and basically taught a whole generation how to talk, dress, dream, and occasionally overreact in slow motion.

I’ve seen every one of these multiple times, and if you’ve missed a few, you’ve just got some fun homework.

Todd and I are on the edge of a huge milestone: The 70’s Buzz Podcast is about to hit one million downloads.

In this special episode, I rewind the tape and go from growing up in Enid in the 1970s (long summer nights on W. Broadway with the neighborhood crew) to my early days of blogging and experimenting with podcasts way back in 2005.

You’ll hear how a “let’s try something” idea turned into a real studio, real microphones, and eventually a weekly show that’s become part of our lives since 2017. We talk about the early projects (CurtisTucker.com, E-Talk, radio spots, livestream adventures), the wild Broadway Tower rooftop supermoon moment that helped launch our first studio space, the bumps we hit (including a building fire that shut us down for a while), and the decision that changed everything: stop doing random shows and go all-in on one subject—growing up in the 70s.

As of February 12, 2026, we’ve released 429 episodes and we’re sitting at 998,792 downloads with listeners all over the world (especially the US, Australia, Canada, and the UK). We also share what’s working best (our 70s song episodes) and where people listen most (Spotify, iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, and Amazon Music).

This episode is a celebration, a behind-the-scenes origin story, and a thank-you to everyone who’s been along for the ride. One million is happening like, any minute now.

In this episode, I talk about 22 things I’ve kept from my childhood! Many items are nearly 50 years old and still packed with meaning. From magic tricks and marbles to comic books and cassette tapes, these aren’t just keepsakes. They’re time capsules, each one tied to a memory, a feeling, or a moment that never quite left.
