POP Goes The World! presents:

March 24, 1984

Today is March 24, which any good card carrying Gen Xer will tell you that on this day in 1984, 5 disparate teenagers convened in the library of Shermer HIgh School at 7a.m. to serve detention for various offenses, and the rest, as they say, is history…..

(Hell, I’ll find any excuse to do an 80s show!)
