The Nostalgia Nerd Tackles the Max Headroom Highjacking Incident of 1987

Welcome back to 80s August, The Splintering’s month-long celebration of the greatest decade since I found that genie lamp and wished to live forever!

We love it when other folks get in the 80s August spirit. Today, we’re going to highlight a splendid video that The Nostalgia Nerd posted covering the mysterious Max Headroom airwave highjacking incident of 1987. Sure, he technically posted it before July was over, but he’s old like me (over 40), so you can’t blame him for messing up those finer details!

Enough talk! Go forth and “Catch the wave!”

Thanks for reading!
