This week on our deep dive into 1986, Tim takes us to a random day in August '86 to celebrate and discuss a community ravaged by HIV and AIDS. While the epidemic is one of the most important and heartbreaking stories of the 1980s, this episode attempts to highlight both the joy brought by some of the year's best songs, and those who rallied for and were a big part of the LGBTQ+ community during a challenging time.
