Stuck In Thee Garage #466: March 10, 2023

It's hard to imagine life without the constant use of technology that we have today, but 40 years ago, the most complicated tech we had was in our videogame consoles. TVs were like furniture, phones were attached to the wall and when you took photos, you had to pay to get them developed. This week on Stuck In Thee Garage, I played songs from 1983 in hour 2 and it was truly all over the place and great. Just like a trip to WalleyWorld.
