S1E17: Silkwood + Mama's Family + Cabbage Page Kids Craze | 1983 Pop Culture Rewind

We are going back to December of 1983…for the 40th anniversary of the release of Silkwood! And, since this movie is mysteriously unavailable literally anywhere - so you’re stuck with just me today ;)
Our everyman, Kurt Russell, is joined by Meryl Streep & Cher for this movie based on a true story and got alot of award attention.
Plus, I talk Mama's Family AND the Cabbage Patch Kids craze of 1983; you don't want to miss it!

Oh, Mama's Family! Loved it! I didn't know Betty & Rue left to do Golden Girls (even better!)! Emory has my "Glynnis", my Cabbage Patch Kid! I think you're right about "Uptown Girl" with Billy Joel & Christy Brinkley. Pat Benatar's music is still phenomenal. "Islands In The Stream" - rarely hear it but freaking love that song! I have not seen this movie, but your beginning description of Silkwood, has some similarities to Erin Brockovich (or really, E.B. has similarities to Silkwood). **I wrote the Erin Brockovich part before the end where you bring it up! ;)

Fun memories, right?! Yep, it is E.B. - esque - you should get it from your library. Thanks for tuning in!
