Episode 18: 80s Road Trips Were Insane
<p>This week on Feedbag, we’re heading straight back to the 1980s - when family road trips meant paper maps, packed station wagons, early morning departures, and absolutely zero GPS.</p><p>We’re talking about the chaos and charm of 80s road trips: hot vinyl seats, cassette tapes on repeat, kids rolling around in the back of the car, and parents who somehow kept it all together (barely).</p><p></p><p>Before iPhones, before in-car screens, before “Are we there yet?” could be answered by a tablet - there was just the open road, a highlighted map, and a lot of trust in Dad’s questionable navigation system.</p><p></p><p>It’s nostalgic, funny, and a little shocking by today’s standards - but also kind of magical in a way we don’t really experience anymore.</p><p></p><p>We’re getting into:</p><ul><li>Station wagons and the legendary “backseat zone”</li><li>Paper maps vs GPS panic</li><li>Leaving at 5:30am for reasons no one questioned</li><li>Road trip snacks, cassette tapes, and sibling fights</li><li>Why getting lost was just part of the adventure</li><li>What we miss (and definitely don’t miss) about 80s travel</li></ul><p>If you grew up in the 80s or 90s, this one will hit you right in the memory bank. If you didn’t… you’re about to find out how different travel used to be.<br /><br />🎥 New here? YAY! Hi!
