27 - Consistently Perfect

We are starting 2023 embracing our age! After a few minutes of warming up and talking about the weather and the Southwest Airlines fiasco of 2022, Danielle tells us about a fascinating article she read in AARP. Steph reminisces about the yesteryears of rock music and the vintage classic, "The Black Parade." Danielle takes us into an "entry-ception" in which her 36-year old self is reflecting on her 28-year-old self reflecting on her 21-year old-self and the first time she decided to quit drinking (spoiler alert: it didn't stick for another 3 years). We then turn it over to college-era Steph's collection of random thoughts over the course of a 2-hour audio theory class. We end talking about the ebb and flow of friendship - specifically ours, and give each other (and you, dear listener!) permission to forgive yourself for all the cringe-worthy shit you did 10 years ago. Statute of limitations, babyyy.    After-show note: We somehow get on the topic of baby ultrasounds in the 80s and get this: if you were born in the mid-80s, the TECHNOLOGY TO TELL THE SEX OF YOUR BABY DID NOT EXIST. We all just came in hot, surprising everyone. We are shook.
