S2E7: Friday Night Was for More than Videos! 52:35

Want to weigh in? Send us a text! Remember when Friday nights didn't require checking your phone every five minutes? When plans were made in person at school and then you just showed up somewhere? Megan and Lesley take us back to their teenage weekend rituals in the 1980s and early '90s, and the nostalgia hits like a caffeine rush from those bottomless Perkins coffees (or teas) we all drank at 2am. With their new vintage bar setup as the perfect backdrop, the hosts trade stories about the weekend social rituals that defined Gen X adolescence. From roller skating parties that required good grades to attend, to midnight showings of Rocky Horror Picture Show (complete with toast, toilet paper, and squirt guns), they map the geography of teen hangouts in Indianapolis. Noble Romans Pizza with its mythical $99 Dom Perignon special, Denny's with "Moons Over My Hammy," and small-town cruising rituals all get their moments in the spotlight. What's striking is how these memories reveal a different relationship with rebellion and fun. Both hosts confess they didn't drink in high school – not because they were straight-laced, but because they were genuinely having a great time without it. Megan's confession about stealing a velvet rope from a movie theater and proudly displaying it in her bedroom captures the perfect level of Gen X rebellion – just enough to feel dangerous without causing real harm. Whether you were playing Dungeons & Dragons on Friday nights, working at TCBY, or watching MTV's 120 Minutes instead of sleeping before school, you'll recognize yourself in these stories. So pour yourself something delicious, settle in, and join us for this journey back to a time when weekend entertainment didn't require Wi-Fi, when malls were social hubs rather than dying institutions, and when the most important thing was just being together with your friends, figuring out this weird thing called adolescence. What was your Friday night ritual? We'd love to hear about it. Support the show Get your hands on our MERCH!!!

S2E5:Puppies, Periods, and Pac-Man Cereal: An After School Special 56:45

56:45

Want to weigh in? Send us a text! What do breakfast cereals, women's health concerns, and government overreach have in common? They're all part of the rich tapestry of Gen X experiences that Megan and Lesley explore in this wide-ranging, authentic conversation. The episode opens with exciting puppy news as Megan introduces her new emotional support puppy, Olive! Lesley transparently shares her recent postmenopausal health scare, walking listeners through her experience seeking prompt medical care. The good news? Everything turned out benign. The more important message? Women's health matters, and places like Planned Parenthood provide critical services for those without insurance or primary care access. (PS Lesley does know that 'Waiting for Godot' was written by Samuel Beckett - she does not have to hand in her theater kid card.) Who died this week? The promoter of the Foreman Grill! (And Professional Boxer!) RIP George Foreman. Shifting gears, the hosts address disturbing trends in civil liberties, focusing on a Venezuelan soccer player seeking asylum who was detained without due process. Their passionate discussion highlights concerns many Gen X women share about government overreach and the protection of basic rights. Shout out to the beloved Chatterbox Jazz Club! (Don't be an asshole people.) The conversation then dives into breakfast cereal nostalgia in all its sugary glory. From Wheaties boxes featuring Olympic heroes to character-branded cereals like Mr. T and Pac-Man, the hosts explore how cereal marketing exploded alongside mothers entering the workforce. Remember those miniature cereal boxes that transformed into cereal bowls? Or the excitement of digging for plastic prizes that sometimes ended up stuck to your ceiling? These shared memories illuminate how convenience foods shaped our generation and continue to influence food culture today. Throughout it all, Megan and Lesley maintain their signature blend of humor, vulnerability, and no-nonsense commentary that makes listeners feel like they're catching up with old friends. Whether discussing serious health concerns or debating which cereal was most likely to "cut your face open," their authentic connection shines through. Share your own cereal memories!

S2E4:We are Super Sick of This Shit - Let's Go to Casa Bonita! 1:05:43

1:05:43

Want to weigh in? Send us a text! Ever wondered why those kitschy themed restaurants of the 80s and 90s still hold such a special place in our hearts? That yearning for escape isn't just nostalgia—it's a lifeline for the sandwich generation. Between advocating for our own health and caring for everyone else, Gen X women are desperately seeking moments of joy and transportation. From Medieval Times to Casa Bonita (now gloriously resurrected by the South Park creators after a $40 million renovation), we celebrate these immersive experiences that briefly whisk us away from reality. The episode opens with serious health topics—Megan's frustration with having to get a measles shot because of vaccine hesitancy, and Lesley's post-menopausal health scare (a reminder to call your doctor immediately if you experience bleeding after menopause). But true to form, we lighten the mood by sampling Irish whiskey created by pioneering women like Louise McGuane of JJ Corey, Ireland's first female whiskey bonder in 50 years. We take a moment to remember Gene Hackman's diverse career, from his Oscar-winning performance in The French Connection to his memorable role in The Birdcage. Then we dive deep into our collective obsession with themed restaurants—Showbiz Pizza's terrifying animatronics, Chi-Chi's birthday celebrations, Farrell's Ice Cream Parlor, and the legendary Adventurer's Club at Disney's Pleasure Island. Whether you're planning your next escape or simply want to revisit the magic of eating mediocre food in spectacularly weird surroundings, this episode celebrates finding joy in carefully crafted experiences. Because sometimes, watching cliff divers while eating enchiladas is exactly the mental vacation we need.
