About this episode
Ali Siddiq is here for his second ride in The Wayback as we roll straight into the 80s. (Check out his YouTube specials "Rugged," "My Two Sons," and "The Domino Effect" ). Ali gets nostalgic about moving around a lot as a kid, and takes us to see some of his early grade schools, reminiscing about his youth sports career, school dances during the breakdancing era, and watching the Challenger shuttle explosion in class. We also trade stories about childhood games like hot ball, spread eagle, and bottom's up. Then we do a deep dive on early video games like Pong, Pitfall, 1942, Track & Field, Galaxian, and Double Dribble!
