Just can't get enough? Bad news...

JULY 05, 2008

The unveiling of a new Stuck in the 80s podcast episode is a Saturday tradition, I realize, but I'll end the drama for you right now: There's no new show this week.

We meant to do our tribute to Phil Collins' solo work, but frankly we ran out of time on the short holiday week. And since we didn't even get to meet Billy Squier or Colin Hay during their show on Wednesday night, we couldn't even make up a "lazy" episode.

Still, a top 5 list seems in order...

TOP 5 REAL REASONS THERE'S NO PODCAST THIS WEEK:

5. Jealous girlfriend, Ione Skye, "accidentally" deleted our tribute show to movies featuring a topless Phoebe Cates.

4. Show now sponsored by Munchos ... prompting Sean Daly to walk out.

3. Long-time listener "Six" blocking door to podcast studio until Cathy Wos returns as co-host.

2. Stuck in the '90s podcast preempted our usual recording time to record exclusive interview with M.C. Hammer.

1. We're still out shopping for size XXL red leather pants to wear to tonight's Loverboy show. Just turn me loose, baby. Turn me loose.
