And we're back! Let's start with a gallery of magazine covers from December 1970

I'm so happy to be back to publishing Pop Culture Safari after nearly a year on hiatus.  Anything interesting happen while I was out? 

Well, screw all that. 

We're gonna be nostalgic, while also highlighting cool stuff going on right now in the world of pop culture. We're gonna keep things light and have fun. 

And we're gonna be patient with and kind to one another, too. Because why take a tough situation and make it worse? 

For starters, here's a selection of magazine covers you might've seen had you wandered into a newsstand 50 years ago this month. And what better to put up top than a nostalgia-themed cover to Newsweek?

Stay tuned for a lot more. Looking forward to your emails and comments.
