ABOUT


Hi, I'm Jason and I've been sharing 80s pop culture online since October 1, 2011. Rediscover the '80s was created as my personal blog about rediscovering pop culture from my childhood in the 1980s. It has transformed over the years into a traditional website, offering original editorials, articles, videos, news headlines and commentary on retro pop culture from the '80s (and sometimes early '90s). 

My lifelong friend Wyatt Bloom and other guests authors contribute to the website from time to time. Rediscover the '80s is also a podcast station which features shows like "Memory Jogger" with memories from Jason and Wyatt's childhood, a Top 5 countdown show called "Rank 'Em" featuring various guests, and "Rediscovered" which reviews obscure and overlooked movies, television, and cartoons hosted Jason and Wyatt. 

Search for Rediscover The 80s in your favorite listening app like Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Play, Stitcher, TuneIn, iHeartRadio, Amazon, and more.


I've also written a short memoir about growing up in rural Pennsylvania in the '80s. Biking to Buzzards and Other '80s Childhood Memories is available in the Amazon Kindle store. It features 44 pages of short stories like riding my bike to the local general store Buzzard's, Halloween antics, and memories of playing with the neighborhood kids.


I also publish a newsletter that is loaded with 1980s pop culture. The 80s Weekly is published every Sunday morning and is loaded with news headlines, articles, music, podcasts, and GIVEAWAYS that are all related to the 80s. Sign up for free and start receiving rad content direct to your inbox.


I love writing and talking about pop culture so much that RD80s isn't enough! Along with my  friend Mickey Yarber, I've developed another retro pop culture experience titled The Retro Network. Pop culture past and present lives on through a podcast network and website that is packed with weekly audio nostalgia, written features, and a YouTube channel with a variety of shows. 

Enjoy the content and stay rad, everyone!

- Jason
