She soon discovers ‘the cause’ isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Little does she know this is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to activism and her determination to create radical change in ways that include belonging, love and one's full self.

“Ladies and gentlemen, rock and roll.” Welcome back to the 80s. On August 1, 1981 viewers in New Jersey were the first to see the debut of a new music video channel, MTV.

However, for Episode 28, we thought it would be uber-nostalgic to go back to those days between January 1, 1980 and July 31, 1981 to hear what music was like before MTV changed everything.

Welcome back to the 80s and our first mini-episode! We came up this idea when we didn’t have enough songs to fill our usual 90-minute podcast theme. In honor of Teacher Appreciation Week May 8-12, this episode features songs not only about teachers and education, but also high school proms and even some good ol’ fashioned high school rebellion. We should mention that the irony isn’t lost on us that some of these songs move beyond simply poking fun at school, to being rather critical of the educational system. So, regardless of whether you loved or loathed school, this episode has something for you. A shout out to those of you who have been with us since the beginning and welcome to our new listeners. As always, thanks to Team Boomtown: Alan (artwork), DJ Phil B (technical advice) and David Baerwald and David Ricketts, also known as David + David, for their amazing album which inspired the title of our podcast.
