A flat tire, a Playboy magazine, a stolen car, and an impromptu blues performance—just another normal night of babysitting in 1987… right?

This week, we’re revisiting Adventures in Babysitting, the chaotic cult favorite that gave us Elisabeth Shue, Thor worship, and a truly absurd tour of late-80s Chicago. But between the nostalgia and the neon, this movie also serves up some major cringe—especially in the racial stereotyping department.

We talk:

• Babysitting as a high school senior

• Each character's questionable decision-making

• The moments that still made us laugh

• And the ones that aged like a forgotten hot dog under the car seat
