The Best 80s Movie Montages

Faces of The Gulf War | Introduction

Between August 2, 1990, when Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait, and February 28, 1991, when the First Gulf War came to an end, the world watched one of the defining conflicts of the late twentieth century unfold live on television. We remember the images, but how well do we remember the people behind them? Hosted by Milo Denison, Faces of the Gulf War is a limited podcast series exploring the lives of the military leaders, politicians, and dictators who shaped the conflict. Each episode focuses on one person, tracing the events that brought them to the First Gulf War and the decisions they made once they got there. From Norman Schwarzkopf and George H. W. Bush to Margaret Thatcher, Colin Powell, Saddam Hussein, and many others, discover the stories behind the faces that shaped that conflict. Faces of the Gulf War is a limited series presented by The 80s and 90s Uncensored.

Columbia House and BMG Music

Remember receiving cassette tapes or CDs in the mail and paying just a penny for them? Only to be hounded every month to buy more at the regular club price? If so, you probably remember the names Columbia House and BMG. If you don't, and you would like to learn how your parents got their music delivered through the mail, this is the episode for you. In this episode, host Milo Denison revisits the glory days of mail-order music, when a penny could buy a stack of albums and a long-term commitment hidden in the fine print. All for the low, low price of one cent. Terms and conditions apply.
