Description

In this first episode, of which we hope there will be many more to come, Rick takes us back to the 80s, that time when, as a teenager, you had to go to incredible lengths to get your favorite music. With humor and lively flair, he tells his personal story, from the excitement of hearing a new song on the radio, the endless wait until you could buy it, and the ultimate reward of finally owning your own copy of your favorite record. A relatable story for Gen X, and for Millennials and Gen-Z a story that takes them back to a time when life seemed more complicated but also a lot more rewarding.
