MTV’s “music” era is officially over, so Bobby and Eddie rewind to how it all started and why it mattered way beyond just music videos. Bobby takes you back to the first video that kicked the whole thing off, then breaks down how MTV became the ultimate tastemaker: the place that could turn a song into a moment and an artist into a star overnight. Along the way, they ran through the MTV staples that defined a generation from must-see countdowns, late-night weirdness, the shows everyone talked about at school the next day and how the network slowly shifted from music to something else entirely. It’s part nostalgia, part pop culture history, and a rapid-fire tour of the most unforgettable MTV memories through Bobby and Eddie’s eyes.
