It’s a rainy Friday in New Canaan, Connecticut—but I’ve got some Billy Idol playing this morning.. so all is good.
Last night was a fun countdown featuring the MTV’s official Top 40 videos of 1985 (lots of surprises!). You can watch it in all it’s glory on IG, FB, YT or TT.
Today?
Well, this morning we turned on the radio in 1982 and looked at 10 songs across 10 different stations, this afternoon we’re hopping back 40 years ago to dive into the Top 20 and then tonight… well… you’ll see.
Remember, the spotify playlist is updated frequently with our best 80s countdowns.
Ok, now onto the BIG big news. Yippee!
The world’s first fully immersive 80s time machine, The Tape Club Letters, is coming this Sunday (in 48 hours!).
Here’s a sneak peek…
Sneak peek of Issue #1
Yup, the 80s are being delivered right to your door.
Every issue, we zig zag across the decade—and the letter, puzzles, charts, concert tickets and more all take place INSIDE that month and year of the 80s.
As it’s happening. 100% immersion.
We’re transported back in time. It’s pretty cool.
Issue #1?
We’re going back to November 1984. The music, the charts, the memories.
Oh yeah, there’s no subscriptions or recurring billing—which means it’s not only good for you—it also makes the best gift ever.
Zero stress. Easy peasy.
I know. I know.
“But Ryan, I don’t care about this stuff. I just want to watch your 80s videos!”.
Yup, I get it. And the videos will never stop—that ain’t changing.
2-3 videos a day. All free. That keeps going. That’s the heartbeat of the tape club.
The Tape Club Letters are for those who want something a bit more. To get offscreen, slow down and go back to their youth.
They wanna go back to the best decade ever when life was a lot simpler.
And yes, at the same time, when you join—it supports the show.
Can you say win/win?
K, gotta go. I have more envelopes to get stuff.
Let’s Play,
Ryan
