So sorry for your loss. I understand what it's like losing a mother 😢. And I so miss the 80s I wish I could time travel back..❤

Keith, I just want to send my condolences to you and your family. I know the feeling of losing a mother, and this coming Halloween It'll be 3 years when she passed away. She died at 6am on Halloween Morning. That's cool to see Tiffany graduate with you all and give the commencement address. Also I'm glad that you two met Wang Chung and got that record ya'll were looking for. Our 80's Life will live on forever, but the 90's were awesome too!!! I was born in the early 80's, but I loved it growing up, just like I did in the 90's. Even though I didn't get to see the 70's, but from stories from family, parents of friends, etc. But I watch shows and listen to 70's Music!!! Glad to see you two again!!!

Sending our condolences to you and your family Keith. All our prayers goes to you.
We are glad you're back and safe. We missed you guys. We love the move for the channel. Reporting about the 70's and the 90's is a great idea in addition to the 80's which is definitely the best. I am from 1979 and my best memories are from the late 80's to 98 when I started working. So seing the 90's will really make me happy. I have fond memories especially from the early 90's. Best greetings from Paris. 😊

The Vintage Tribute channel has a great 70s tribute that allowed me to really appreciate the 70s. They also have great 80s and 90s videos as well. I'm glad you're back.
Sorry to hear about your mother Keith.

So Sorry for your loss. My mom left us September 24, 2009 and I've never gotten over it, just learned to live with it. My dad is from Dallas and I met Larry Hagman and Steve Kanaly when I was 3 y.o. at the racquetball club where they filmed. My aunt was a member there and I asked him if I could swim in his pool. My mom got both of their autographs. I really enjoy your vids about Dallas filming locations.

You realize in 30 years you will have to change your name again to "Our Geriatric Life".

Loved seeing your 80s Cruise graduation – because I was next to you! That clip brought back all the feels of The 80s Cruise. Excited for your “new” channel! Need to see more pictures of when you were dating. Just adorable! 🎉

Condolences to both of you and your family.

Keith, I'm sorry to hear about your Mom.
Your new channel ideas sound great!
I was married in the early 80's!

Keith,my deepest condolences for your loss of your mom,and Abby,my deepest condolences for the loss of your mother-in-law.
❤️
Now I must say,it made me smile to see your ocean bound graduation!
Congratulations!!!!!!
And I think it was wise to change the channel name,as the 1980’s is the middle decade between 70’s and 90’s.
80’s is the welding job that fuses the 3 decades.
Yeah I’m sure I’ll send a story or fifty,many may not be a relatable story,just stories from a time period,certain elements will be relatable,certain elements will be like”WHUUUT?”
But that’s what makes it fun!
You provide a forum for such fun!

New viewer I’m a gen x born in 77. We are the best generation I’m convinced the rest are soft after us. Oh I got many stories I’ll be emailing. What are the topics we are talking about? Glad I came across your channel you both look like people I went to high school with.

Gen X is the BEST! That’s a cool channel name. The 80’s cruise with Tiffany looked so fun. I believe you are right that your mom is in a much better place. I know how difficult it is to have loved ones pass. You are in my heart! ❤️

I don't care what you call yourselves; I love watching you guys. You could be playing with spatulas from the 80's – you guys make it fun. Keep up the great work. Also, Keith, let me be the latest to offer my condolences on your mom. I know how hard it can be. I always look forward to see what you're going to do next.
