The Goonies (1985) ft. Beach Bums Never Die
This week, we’re joined by the founder of California lifestyle brand Beach Bums Never Die and the founder of City Apparel and Designs to revisit one of the most beloved adventure films of all time — The Goonies.
We dive into the nostalgia and what it was like growing up with this movie as part of our childhood. From pirate booty traps to One-Eyed Willy, we unpack why The Goonies stuck with so many of us — and whether it still holds up today.
Expect some personal stories, laughs, and a few hot takes from the backseat.
