About this episode

The episode features an interview with Sam Bernard discussing 80s bike culture and the movie RAD.

This month on 80s Kids Unite, The Night Boyz have “thunder in their hearts” when they’re joined by the co-producer & writer of the 1986 movie RAD (Sam Bernard) to discuss 80s bike culture! Riding bikes in the 80s was everything to kids! Whether you were battling rebel forces in the forest or riding 3 miles to see your friends, the bike was your go-to mode of transportation and ultimate expression of freedom. In this episode, Corey, Diallo, Wayne, & Zak are joined by Sam Bernard (RAD, 3:15: The Moment of Truth) to share their memories of riding in the streets on their two wheeled steel horse. The Night Boyz also celebrate the 40th anniversary of RAD and find out what the future holds for the bmx cult classic! Enjoy!
