📼 WELCOME BACK

Take Me Back.

You know the feeling. A song comes on — maybe Wham!, maybe Whitesnake — and for three glorious minutes you’re back in a world of mixtapes, mall food courts, and Friday nights that felt like they’d never end. That feeling is the entire reason this site exists.

We’re Bobby Catalano and Jason Pascoe — and if you grew up with Dance Party USA on USA Network, you’ve seen us before. Bobby was on the show from 1985 and hosted it from ’89 to ’91. Jason was the co-conspirator-in-chief in the studio from ’86 to ’88, back when the whole country was watching. Today we host the Awesome 80s Podcast, where we dig into the music, the movies, the TV, and the beautifully ridiculous stuff we all lived through.

So pour yourself a Tab, let the tracking settle, and stay a while. New stuff and old tapes, all in one place — because the rewind button still works.

The “Edge of Heaven” spin — straight off the master tape.
Bobby, holding down the floor. It was, in fact, a good day.

Quality Bargain-Bin Entertainment!
