Playfully entertaining!!
Lauren and Bob work well together as they explore the times that were and the “stuff“ that was. A casual and relaxed revisit to a time and age that was once a way of life as Lauren and Bob banter with each other and the listening audience. Well
Worth the time to listen in to this casual and informative stroll down memory lane.
Very enjoyable pod for all, especially boomers.
Listened to a few episodes of this podcast the other day, and I am hooked. In the current environment it’s hard sometimes to realize how much change we, born in the postwar generation, have seen. I related immediately to talk of Candyland, the voices of news anchors from the 60s, (I recognized them all), and other pleasant memories, including various TV themes from the era. Episodes are short, so it’s easy to binge. Great work, and relatable and laid back hosts.
