🎙️ The Insanely Dangerous Retro Podshow – Season 7, Episode 11: The Karate Kid
Wax on, wax off, Retro Nation! This week we’re crane-kicking our way back to 1984 to revisit one of the most beloved underdog stories of the decade – The Karate Kid. From Mr. Miyagi’s wisdom to Johnny Lawrence’s Cobra Kai toughness, this film became a cultural phenomenon and a rite of passage for a generation.
In this episode we cover: 🎵 What Happened Way Back When – 5 songs, 5 movies, and 5 TV shows from 1984. 🥋 The Dangerous Deep Dive – cast, characters, the history of the movie, a full plot breakdown, and the impact it had on pop culture. 🥊 Retro Rumble – Johnny Lawerence vs Biff Tannen – which bully comes out on top? 📺 Back in the Ads – those classic TV spots that made everyone want to do karate. 💎 Dangerously Underrated – a character, scene, or element from the film that deserves more love. ⚖️ Better Than / Worse Than – how Karate Kid stacks up against its 80s contemporaries.
It’s heart, it’s humour, it’s hi-yah nostalgia! So join us as we bow to our sensei, enter the dojo, and celebrate this 80s masterpiece.
Next week: we’re moving from karate to commandos with G.I. Joe / Action Force!
