Episode 007 - 1984 Co-hosted with Dan Duncan
This week on Tubular Time Machine, I’m stoked to welcome a special guest and a longtime friend—someone I go way back with to the days of BBSs, dial-up tones, and digital mischief before the internet even knew what social media was.
Joining me is Dan Duncan, a guy who knows how to belt out a karaoke tune, hit the gym, and still have room for a cold one on the Old Chicago World Beer Tour. He’s also partly responsible for my son’s love of the bass guitar—yes, Dan’s that kind of positive enabler.
In 1984, Dan was 14 years old, soaking up pop culture like a sponge and living through the radness of the Reagan era, Rubik’s Cubes, and Ghostbusters hype in real time. He brings not only firsthand memories of the year but also a great sense of humor, deep music knowledge, and stories that’ll take us all back.
