80s Kids Unite: 80s Skateboard Culture

Author: Geekscape June 14, 2026 Duration: 50:28
This month on 80s Kids Unite, The Night Boyz are “gleaming the cube” while trying not to look like “posers” when discussing skateboard culture! Skateboarding in the 80s was was a rebellious form of transportation. The “cool kids” could skate. And everyone else who tried and failed were “posers!” In this episode, Wayne, Corey, and Zak reminisce on skateboard culture in the 80s. Video games (Skate or Die!, T&C Surf Designs), movies (Thrashin’), toys (Mattel’s Skateboard Gang), more are discussed. Enjoy! Special shoutout to Patreon member Corey for the suggestion!

Remember the smell of popcorn, the hum of a VCR, and the thrill of picking a movie from a crowded video store shelf? Two Dollar Late Fee is a podcast that brings that feeling back, diving deep into the films that defined a decade. Hosts Zak and Dustin, self-proclaimed 80s ninjas, guide conversations that are less about cold critique and more about warm appreciation, exploring everything from iconic soundtracks to the hidden gems you might have missed. The show often features interviews with the actors and creators who were there, adding firsthand context to the movies you love. It’s a consistently positive space for nostalgia, dedicated to the joy these films still bring. Furthermore, this podcast is also the home for Territory Marks, a recurring segment with professional wrestler Paul London that steps away from the cinema to revisit the vibrant, chaotic glory days of 1980s professional wrestling. Every episode is a celebration, whether it’s breaking down a teen comedy, analyzing a sci-fi classic, or sharing stories from the squared circle. New episodes arrive every Sunday, ready to transport you. It’s a welcoming listen for anyone who still feels that particular magic from the era, all without any pesky late fees.
