Ali Goodman and Jon Wolter each spent ages 3 to 13 in the 1980s, about 1,000 miles apart. While there was a lot of cultural overlap, each still has very specific gaps that the other is trying to fill. And you can listen in as two fast talking people who want to be the center of attention decide whether or not their spouse’s childhood memories are even close to accurate. Warning: each episode contains lots of interruptions, lots of verbal tics, a ton of spoilers, the occasional unexplained in-joke, and maybe even a little love.
