Sitcom Moms, 80s Icons & the Rise of MJ: May 1985 Rewind!

Alex and Cruz are back with another nostalgia-packed episode of Nostalgia Junkies! This week, we’re giving a retro shoutout to all the iconic TV moms just in time for Mother’s Day. From Fran Fine to Peg Bundy, Claire Huxtable to Kitty Forman — we rank our favorite sitcom mothers of the 80s and 90s and debate who had the best one-liners, parenting style, and fashion sense (hello, leopard print!).

Then it’s time for another round of “This or That,” brought to you by our friends at Throwback Buys — your ultimate destination for all things retro. Don’t forget to use code NJPOD for 15% off! Today’s battles:
🧸 Tamagotchi or Furby?
🦆 Darkwing Duck or DuckTales?
🦸‍♂️ Power Rangers or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?

And for our Meat & Potatoes segment, we take a time machine back to May 1985, when:
🎥 Chuck Norris was kicking butt in Code of Silence
🎭 Chevy Chase delivered laughs in Fletch
💣 Stallone returned with explosive action in Rambo: First Blood Part II
🎵 Madonna topped the charts with Crazy for You
🏀 And a rookie named Michael Jordan was officially crowned NBA Rookie of the Year!
