E66 Do You Believe in Wayne's World and SB Halftime Miracles? Excellent.
February 16, 2025 · 37 min

Ever tried to choose which two 80's Pop albums/cassettes you'd be willing to part with? That’s the musical dilemma we tackled in this week's episode of "Music in My Shoes." Our journey starts with a random list of 28 cassettes, that Jimmy and I dive headfirst into, looking for the first 2 out and the first 2 in. Music is subjective and deeply personal, and our lively debate underscores just that as we reflect on the albums we just can't let go. Play along with us, with the list below.And that's not all—we also take you through our top five Super Bowl halftime shows, a list packed with electrifying memories from Michael Jackson's game-changing performance to U2's heartfelt tribute to 9/11. Each show left a lasting impact, with Prince’s rain-soaked guitar solos and Paul McCartney's crowd-rousing "Hey Jude" sing-along standing out. As we meander through these iconic moments, we also pause to recall the timeless resonance of certain albums and even share a detour into the world of sports with the 1980 "Miracle on Ice." We look back at Aerosmith guesting in the 'Wayne's World' sketch on Saturday Night Live in 1990. Join us for a rich blend of music, memories, and moments that have shaped our lives.
