Manage episode 430315825 series 3519102
Ever wondered how your first concert experience shaped your musical tastes and memories? Join us as Amber reminisces about her childhood adventure at a Crisscross concert at Great America, where she even wore her clothes backward in true Crisscross fashion. Misty follows with her exhilarating yet squishy experience of pushing to the front at a New Kids on the Block concert at Warner's Theater in Fresno, California. Together, we explore how these early concerts influenced the people we're drawn to and sparked epiphanies about our past and present selves.
We then take a hilarious journey through the fashion and beauty trends of our youth. From the baggy jeans and platform shoes to the quirky habit of using Crisco for tanning, we share laughs over our past fashion faux pas and the unexpected sources of our fandoms. Whether it's a unique attraction to diverse ethnic backgrounds or a long-standing loyalty to the Raiders, we reflect on how these youthful choices have left a lasting impact on us today.
Lastly, we tackle the evolution of high school reunions in the age of social media and the dynamics of modern relationships and parenting. Hear our personal anecdotes about the challenges of organizing reunions, maintaining friendships through significant life changes, and the value of spontaneous visits. We wrap up by sharing our first job experiences, the lessons learned, and the impact of wage inflation on today's youth, encouraging everyone to stay engaged and connected.
