Top 5 Songs of 1988!
1988 was the year that the Cold War began to thaw, when the Reagan era ended and the Bush era began. It was also the year where the USA lost in Olympic basketball for the first time, Kirk Gibson won the World Series with one swing and Mike Tyson was the baddest man on the planet.
It's hard to believe that 1988 was 35 years ago, but it's even harder to whittle down the music of 1988 to a Top 5 list! Join Jason and Dee as we do our best to choose the best of a year where the King of Pop still reigned but hair bands and hip hop were storming the castle!

The Outsiders (1983) vs. Rumble Fish (1983): Part 1
In the mid sixties a young girl named Suzy Hinton wrote a story about teenage gangs in her school. The story, published while she was just 18, went on to create the Young Adult genre and sell millions of books. In 1983, "The Outsiders" was made under the direction of superstar director Francis Ford Coppola and assembled maybe the greatest young cast in movie history. Also that year, Coppola stays in Tulsa and continues his use of that young cast creating what some refer to as his masterpiece. Join us as we discuss and celebrate the 40th anniversary of these movies, giving love to Tulsa along the way.

Come with us on a behind the scenes trip examining what it took to get these comedies made and cast, how they could've looked (Nic Cage anyone?) and their lasting legacies.
