This week on the Free Nights and Weekends Podcast, Scott dives straight into the retail mayhem of a true Gen-X Black Friday — back when parents fought strangers for Cabbage Patch Kids, Atari games were stacked like sandbags, and leftover Thanksgiving turkey sandwiches were the fuel that powered America’s bravest shoppers.

From 1983’s infamous Cabbage Patch riots to bargain-bin Atari cartridges and the sacred post-Thanksgiving sandwich that kept families alive in mall parking lots, Scott breaks down the holiday madness.

Strap in, layer up, and meet us by the Orange Julius. It’s Black Friday in the 80s… and it was glorious.
