The Body Rap | A movie that makes Garbage Pail Kids look like Citizen Kane | Freddie Mercury's last words

Loading player...
It feels like Paulo and Dori haven't done a show together since the 80s. George and Andrew - actually more like Mel and Kim - are back in attack for this week's edition of That 80s Show.
This week saw the 30th anniversary of Freddie Mercury's death and we find some stories to remind us of the enigmatic genius.
Part 1: The Body Rap. A toy no one wanted.
Part 2: Movie recommendations featuring trash people, melting and a terrible super hero.
Part 3: Is Wham!rap an iconic 80s rap song?
Part 4: Freddie Mercury's last words and his gift from the grave.
Everything we discuss in this show can be found on @That80sShowSA on Facebook. Also look out for the podcast tab and listen from Facebook.

Doing it all for my baby - Huey Lewis & The News.
Believe it or not - Joey Scarbury.
Wham! Rap.
Stay the night - Chicago.
