1980s Quantum Leap Easter Eggs in Quantum Leap Now

Will, Kat and Jon discuss current 80s news including why Paul Weller (not Robocop) called Robert Smith a k***, how there's even more Candy in "Planes, Trains and Automobiles," and whether the Stallone-Schwarzenegger rumor is true.

Then, we identify the original Quantum Leap easter eggs that connect it cleverly to the first six episodes of the new sequel series. Were you a fan of the original Leap? Email us at will@1980snow.com.
