We wanted everything we saw in food commercials in the 1980s. In this episode of Chat and Bother, we’re talking about the foods we begged for, tolerated, or absolutely hated—and the aggressive marketing that convinced us we needed them.

In this episode, we take a deep (and sometimes hilarious) dive into the most unforgettable scandals of the 1980s and 1990s, back when tabloids ruled, celebrity justice looked very different, and America watched history unfold in real time.
We break down the Clinton impeachment hearings surrounding Monica Lewinsky, revisit the Clarence Thomas and Anita Hill confirmation hearings that forced uncomfortable conversations into American homes, and relive the shocking Tonya Harding–Nancy Kerrigan incident that turned figure skating into headline news.
This week on Chat and Bother, we’re rewinding to a time when the news didn’t just break—it spilled, fell apart, and in one case… got cut short.
Do you remember the Tylenol Murders (now a Netflix movie!)? Where were you when the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded? What do you remember about the most famous 80s televangelists? Welcome to the season premiere of the Chat and Bother Podcast!
