This isn’t just nostalgia — it’s history made personal. Shane Hewitt opens Throwback Thursday with a solo tour through 1980, blending hard numbers and soft memories into a sharp look at how much has changed — and what still hits the same.

From Pierre Trudeau’s return to office to the soaring cost of homes, Shane unpacks a year that shaped the world. Remember when groceries cost $80 a week? When John Lennon’s death was announced mid-game? When TVs were basically furniture? This is 1980 seen through lived memory — full of perspective, stats, pop culture, and that signature Shane blend of curiosity and clarity.
