00:03He said, uh, 80s nostalgia paves over all the trauma of the tumultuous decade.
00:09He also said that the Cuban Missile Crisis took place in the 1980s, so he has his head up his

00:24TWA hijackings, Libya, things of that nature.

01:17And, uh, so that's how I would put it. That's what I would put it on.
