Episode 81: MTV

Summary:  LISTEN In the early 80s the cry went up across America and then the world; "I WANT MY MTV!" In this episode, the OGs reflect back on a time of excitement, an unprecedented blending of music and visuals, strange white studios, ridiculously out of place violence, and... oh yes, the smoothest man ever on TV, J.J. Jackson. Also in this episode... so much Leon Redbone. The glory of TAPEHEADS. Were you a Martha Quinn or a Nina Blackwood?
