Suzanne & Jay

    The One With The World Trade Center Bombing and Sick Days

    Jay takes us back to the first botched attempt at destroying the World Trade Center in 1993 and explores how 9/11 felt like the true end to the 90s. Suzanne reminisces about Third Eye Blind’s Semi-Charmed Life and how it felt like an anthem written just for her (despite the fact it was an anthem written for crystal meth).  Jay shares his yearning to go back to a pre-smartphone life, and Suzanne shares her yearning to return to a time of special sick day TV.  Plus - that time Suzanne swallowed a drill bit, all the whitewashing of drug use in rock docudramas, and the song that kept playing as Suzanne rolled her car when she was sixteen.  Follow Jay on Instagram & Twitter, and Suzanne on Instagram!
