Speed Balls, Baseball Songs & Hot Wheels Vs Matchbox

Published on: 5th October, 2025

This week on The 70s Vs The 80s we’re stepping up to the plate and throwing that speed ball by you! 

First, we break down our listeners’ all-time favorite baseball songs—from stadium anthems to classic rock tracks that capture the spirit of the game. Which tunes belong in the Baseball Hall of Fame, and which ones strike out?


Then in our second segment, it’s Hot Wheels Vs Matchbox. 


We revisit the ultimate childhood toy car rivalry and remember the hours of fun (and crashes) we had with those tiny die-cast machines. Did you side with the flashier Hot Wheels or the more realistic Matchbox cars?


It’s another nostalgic showdown—70s style vs 80s style!
