The Retro Current Show is a live, weekly broadcast exploring the music of the 1980s—one year at a time.
We begin at the genesis of the decade, 1979 → 1980, and move forward deliberately, episode by episode, examining how sound, artists, technology, and culture collided to shape the music that still influences today.
Hosted by Jeremy and Jimmy, each episode centers on a single macro topic, featuring curated song discussions, thoughtful analysis, and real-time audience participation. This is not nostalgia for nostalgia’s sake—it’s context, discovery, and conversation.
The guiding question of the show is simple:
Does music shape culture, or does culture shape music?
Retro Current is a live-first, community-driven show where listeners are encouraged to engage through chat, polls, super chats, and call-ins as the audience grows.
New episodes stream weekly.
