    Join us for a conversation about... conversations!
    As we age, we have fewer Fs to give, which feels freeing but makes socializing with younger, more sensitive generations more complicated.
    We'll cover that, along with small talk, fun conversation starters that can deepen your relationships, and the WORST ways to start a conversation.

  • Episode 16 - Gotta Go Back to School... Again!
    Jul 21 2024

    Send us a text

    For kids today, summer breaks are way too short and school supply lists (yeah, those are a thing now) are way too long.
    So we're taking a moment to reflect on long, glorious summers off and quite a different back-to school experience every Gen Xer can appreciate.
    And we can't do that without also honoring one hell of a good movie that gives ALL the back-to-school vibes - Grease 2!

    For nearly 50 years, we've enjoyed a golden era of summer blockbusters and watched the phenomenon fizzle out in recent years, with few exceptions.
    Is it dead? And if so, what killed it?
    We'll also each take a deep dive into our favorite summer blockbusters of all time - Jaws & Top Gun!
