Episode 83: “… for how long?"    

Jim, George, and Nebulor/Joseph debate hit pop songs of the 80s that have been lost in time. Also discussed are the Top 5 ointments.

Joseph & Jim recall a squalid spring break moment set to the tune of ‘Rock Me Amadeus.’

Jim schemes and connives to get his honorable mentions heard on the show. 

Joseph unintentionally pays tribute to Kim Carnes 1981 album 'Mistaken Identity' when misattributing a song off it to Rod Stewart. 

George makes an 'on-air' confession/apology for a prank he pulled on a high school marching band adversary, Chris F.  

But the show’s highlight is when, after multiple attempts at landing a juvenile joke from middle-school, Jim finally hits the bullseye for a showstopper.
