Show Notes

Dust off your record collection and dig out that paisley blazer—this week, Amanda Stephens and Missy Washam are rewinding to 1986 for the John Hughes classic Pretty in Pink. With Molly Ringwald as the ever-resourceful Andie, Jon Cryer as the lovable Duckie, and James Spader as, well, James Spader, this film captured the angst, romance, and fashion statements of 80s teen life.

Joining the sisters for this episode is Laura Moore, a longtime friend of Amanda's and a fellow fan of all things 80s. Together, they break down the unforgettable moments—from prom dresses to pop hits—and share behind-the-scenes facts about this Brat Pack staple.

So, was Andie meant to end up with Blane? Was Duckie robbed? And why did James Spader always look like he was 35 in high school movies? Tune in for a fun, nostalgic conversation about one of the most beloved teen flicks of the decade.
