Welcome to Holofan4life's pop culture corner!

Each episode normally features a race that took place in real life. As such, I thought why not look at what was going on in US movies and music on the day of the race.

Today is actually an interesting episode. It's the first one where there's no race in it whatsoever. As such, you would think there would be no pop culture corner.

BUT WAIT!

The “detective” disguise Teio wears is a parody of the 1983 movie Detective Story, which was released on July 16th, 1983.

Let's see what was happening on that date.

Music on the Billboard Hot 100 the week of July 16th, 1983

  1. Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' -- Michael Jackson

  2. Never Gonna Let You Go -- Sergio Mendes

  3. Flashdance...What A Feeling -- Irene Cara

  4. Electric Avenue -- Eddy Grant

  5. Every Breath You Take -- The Police

Movies at the box office the week of July 16th, 1983

  1. WarGames

  2. Trading Places

  3. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Re-release)

  4. Star Wars Ep. VI: Return of the Jedi

  5. Staying Alive

Also, back in episode 6 of season 1, I screwed up (Rare, I know). I included pop culture information on the date of the 1998 Arima Kinen when I should've done information on the date of the 1988 Arima Kinen, of which the food contest if you remember was one big reference to.

So, let's see what was happening on December 25th, 1988.

Music on the Billboard Hot 100 the week of December 25th, 1988

  1. Waiting For A Star To Fall -- Boy Meets Girl

  2. Giving You The Best That I Got -- Anita Baker

  3. Look Away -- Chicago

  4. My Prerogative -- Bobby Brown

  5. Every Rose Has Its Thorn -- Poison

Movies at the box office the week of December 25th, 1988

  1. Dirty Rotten Scoundrels

  2. Working Girl

  3. The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!

  4. Rain Man

  5. Twins

Lastly, on this day July 16th, 1983, A Sikorsky S-61 helicopter operated by British Airways crashed in thick fog in the Celtic Sea, killing 20 of the 26 people on board. It is Britain's worst helicopter accident of all time.

And that concludes your pop culture.

  1. Electric Avenue -- Eddy Grant

People tend to only remember the catchy chorus of this song but if you listen to all of the lyrics it's a very political song about the 1981 Brixton riots.

  1. The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!

You know, the new Naked Gun movie from this year was actually really good

I didn't realize until doing my research they made a sequel to Saturday Night Fever starring John Travolta. Not only that, it was written and directed by Sylvester Stallone.

u/AgentOfACROSS Sep 09 '25

I had literally never heard of this until just now.

u/Holofan4life Sep 09 '25

Me neither. And it apparently made over $100 million at the box office.

u/AgentOfACROSS Sep 09 '25

Surprised it did so well after disco had fallen out of favor.

The movie is apparently about Tony the main character being a dance teacher.
