Rant and Rave - Gotham returns to the 80s

Who didn’t love the eighties? Big hair. Crazy fashion. Madonna and Run D.M.C. on the airwaves. It was a magical time. Well, it was also a time of high crime, unemployment, and due to the Cold War, tension between the US and Russia. Seems a lot like the 2020s, huh? In this episode, DysChick and SocaSaySo RANT about the surreal return to the past. Then we RAVE to “Rebecca” by Super Blue, which won Road March in Trinidad in 1983.
