We love hearing new music from our '80s heroes. In this episode, we highlight new singles from Howard Jones, Berlin and Tiffany. And we have a very odd conversation about body powder and candles. Today's episode of Stuck in the '80s is sponsored by a brand-new partner. It's Blue Chew. BlueChew brings you the first chewable with the same FDA-approved active ingredients as Viagra and Cialis so you know they work. You can take them anytime, day or night--even on a full stomach--and since they’re chewable, they work up to twice as fast as a pill.
