Go Back To School This Weekend

Jana Miller's fifth-grade classroom at Gerald Ford Elementary in Indian Wells, Calif., Tuesday, Aug. 18, 2026.

This time of the year, what do you remember about going back to school?

Seeing your friends again after a long summer, new clothes, new backpack and lunch box, the smell of the cafeteria, Friday football games, walking the hallways, figuring out your locker combination, and so much more!

This weekend we are going back to school in the ’80s and ’90s with songs that will put you right back in the classroom!

We’ll also have back-to-back themes, share about former schoolteachers like Sheryl Crow and Sting, and Joe also has a story about Billy Idol’s teacher, and the pivotal role she played in his career!

The best part, no hall pass is required this time, just turn on Retro Pop Reunion this weekend!
