The Weekly Links: Goldbergs, Movie Montages, and Al Bundy

New weekly post! As with the items in the Weekend Bargain Bin finds on Amazon, I come across many great articles about the '80s each week that I usually share on Facebook and Twitter. If you are like me though, you don't always get a chance to thumb through your social media feeds every day. I figured a compilation of these '80s articles would be a nice weekly feature on the RD80s blog. I'll be linking to a wide scope of articles across the net each week about '80s culture. Plus, I'll also include some shameless links for my friends and some of my stuff on other sites.

Here are The Weekly Links for 8/7/13!
