In this episode, we’re heading back to Rydell High to revisit Grease, the movie musical that gave us leather jackets, Pink Ladies, summer romance, drag races, school dances, and one of the most unforgettable soundtracks of all time.

We’ll talk about why the movie became such a massive pop culture hit, how John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John helped turn Danny and Sandy into iconic characters, and why songs like “Summer Nights,” “Greased Lightnin’,” and “You’re the One That I Want” still get people singing decades later.
