Stuck In Thee Garage #529: May 24, 2024

 A lot can change in 40 years. For example, our most beloved celebrity circa 1984 was arguably Bill Cosby. Yeah. Anyway, there was a lot of stuff going on in '84 that holds up a lot better than America's Dad. I played a bunch of that stuff this week in hour 2 of Stuck In Thee Garage. It's more fun than a misfit cop from Detroit solving crimes in Beverly Hills.
