We continue the '80s John Cusack and Steve Holland madness with the 1986 offering of 'One Crazy Summer' this time on the cheese. Yep, it's Nantucket's finest yacht race, girls who are just plain trouble, and a Teddy Bear that La spotted right away. Throw in a little teenage shoe shaming and a new top 40's B '80s song that's on La's mind and you've got a show!Kayla's Cheese rating = 1.GoFundMe For ShannonKidnap Countdown = No '80s Style Kidnappings!
