Episode 161: Barbie and The Rockers
What if I told you Mattel had that DAWG in them? Since 1959, Mattel's Barbie has shaped pop culture, as well as the imaginations, hopes, and dreams of little girls for decades. But in 1985, Hasbro took a shot at the queen with Jem and The Holograms, and Mattel wasn't having it at all. This battle of the brands swiftly turned into a battle of the bands as Mattel swiftly introduced Barbie and the Rockers, and the stories behind the scenes plays out like VH1's Behind the Music. Join us, and very special guests...our friends and Yesterdaze House band...THE FANTASTIC PLASTICS as we look back at Barbie and The Rockers!
