🎙️ Pass, Pirate, Pay dives deep into the neon-lit VHS vault for Forgotten '80s Favorites! This week, Ken and Andy are joined by longtime pal and pop culture savant Danny Jackson to revisit three offbeat gems that deserve a rewind.

We’ve got Lucas (1986), the tender teen heartbreaker that made us all protective of Corey Haim and suspicious of jocks. Then it’s Cloak & Dagger (1984), a spy-kid fantasy with enough paranoia and Atari propaganda to keep your inner child thrilled and confused. Finally, we hit the surf with Back to the Beach (1987), the campy musical reunion of Frankie and Annette that nobody asked for—but somehow totally rules.

Dust off your shoulder pads, fire up your Betamax, and get ready to decide if these throwbacks are worth your time—or should stay forgotten.

🎶 It’s Ken and Andy, they’re ready to say… if a flick’s worth your cash or a piratey play!
