  <description>This week for RK 90s Summer, we revisit a film that not only celebrates it's 35th Anniversary in 2025, but was also a childhood favorite of ours! It's the well beloved and oft quoted tale of Arnold Schwarzenegger interacting with and teaching Kindergartners.  There's obviously more to the story, but such an odd premise is pulled off so wonderfully.  Although it is often times mis-categorized as a children's movie, and more times than not, has a darkness to it, it still remains a bonafide classic enjoyed by people of all ages to this day! It's not a tumor, but it's definitely Kindergarten Cop this week on the Radkast!

  <description>This week's show is a real barn burner!  Our dear and long time friend Phil Giesey returned to the show to take on the Six Mix questions, and boy did we cover a manner of topics!  We talked everything from late character actor Dom DeLuise, mis-remembered moments from the HBO series the Wire, and Phil's choice of music that used to help him get through the work day! However, those subjects weren't even close to everything we got into for this week's of the Radkast!

All those things, and so much more, in the worlds of Movies, Music, Television, World Events, and Sports as we embark on our journey through the 1970s, starting with the year 1970 this week on the Radkast!

  <description>This week on the show, we are pulling the 80s train into the station.  In the final year of the decade of decadence, we'll talk about Bat-mania, some TV shows that soon became 90s staples, and the "iron curtain" is torn down.  All these things, and so much more, as we cover the events in media and the world that defined 1989 this week on the Radkast!
