Hard to believe but John Payne was the frontman of Asia for 15 years before the band broke into two separate touring units. During that time he recorded six studio albums and toured the world, playing the hits of the supergroup and songs he and Geoff Downes wrote together. He joins the podcast this week to talk about the history of Asia featuring John Payne, his work outside the band and his upcoming gig on The 80s Cruise.

It’s not the heat of this podcast that will kill you – it’s the humidity. Or maybe this is a dry heat podcast. In any case, Brad, Steve and Jen return with their favorite “hot, hot, hot” songs and movies of the summer.
After 14 years and 511 episodes, Stuck in the ’80s has been around the track a time or two. We’ve hosted trivia sessions on four voyages of The 80s Cruise. We’ve interviewed four of the original MTV veejays. And we’ve shared a story or two (or two hundred) about how the decade we love still influences us today.
