In 20 years of Stuck in the '80s, we've yet to hear from any of Steve's friends from the actual 1980s. That ends with this week's episode: a conversation with former University of Florida student newspaper editor and now author Derek Catron. Derek talks about his new book "Final Deadline" and relives stories from their days in college.
Read more about Derek Catron. Buy "Final Deadline" on Amazon. Visit the Independent Florida Alligator newspaper site online.
Seggies this week include TV Party Tonight and Spin Me Round.
