I dunno. You can probably trace most every societal ill in the US to Reagan. Wildly bad longterm for the country.

Bill Brands has a new book dropping soon. I'm talking to him about it on Thursday. What questions do you have for him?

You're Gen X. You can bring back one thing from the 80s. What is it?

My little brother and me in the early 80s. Two little Kentuckians growing up Cajun in Breaux Bridge. Caught a mess of sac a lait.

Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.

He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions).

Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom.

And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ.

Remember this.

Dan Aykroyd and I are distantly related. Our Aykroyd ancestors, particularly in his direct line, were heavily involved in the Spiritualist movement which Dan often credits as his influence to write the screenplay. His Dad talks about it in his book in which Dan wrote the forward.

This week Historians At The Movies talks about the 80s, New York City, and the end of the world. Join us on Netflix this Sunday, April 26 and 8pm eastern for GHOSTBUSTERS (1984).
