Remember the smell of a fresh pack of squirrel air fresheners? Neither do we, but that didn't stop Jody and me from diving into another episode loaded with humor and a healthy dose of nostalgia. We'll take you on a trip down memory lane, back to the days when Reese's cups were best served cold, and a Mother's Day ring could be a 'Walmart special.' It's a journey through our everyday misadventures, including a curious encounter with a goose and its goslings that had our dogs second-guessing their bravery.
Imagine waking up on a Saturday morning, cereal bowl in hand, ready for cartoons—except now you're all grown up and the cartoons have changed. We've got you covered with a rollicking reflection on the TV shows that molded us, from the wisecracking "ALF" to the heartfelt "Full House," and the Saturday morning powerhouses of animation. Hear us chuckle over the mix-ups and mayhem of the 80s and 90s as we question whether today's entertainment could handle the edginess of "The Simpsons" or the heartfelt adventures of "Punky Brewster."
When the skies darkened and the storm rolled in, our pets' antics gave us more than just a good laugh—it gave us warmth and a reminder of life's simple joys. Join us as we share tales of Winston the Yorkie's heroic stand, our Chihuahua's relentless spirit, and the quirky moments that bind us to our furry friends. Through all the laughter and fur-fueled drama, this episode is about embracing the unpredictable and finding the humor in the storm. So, plug in your headphones and let's weather this nostalgia-filled episode together!

Speaker 2And, by the way, the squirrel air freshener came from Timu. You didn't find those. I got those from Timu.
Speaker 1I found them and you ordered them.
Speaker 2No.

Speaker 2I know exactly what squirrel guy looked like.
Speaker 1If you haven't listened to my other podcast. I'm involved with you, have no idea what we're talking about, but she's wrong, as usual.
Speaker 2I'm not wrong. I ordered those from Timu and I know what Squirrel Guy looks like.
Speaker 1And we've been married 26 years.
Speaker 2Exactly, not 27. Like I told you, we're not 27 yet.
Speaker 1I told you that this nation will be 27. We're in the 26th year. You're wrong Anyway.
Speaker 2You're the one that had to Google it and see, and you hate to be wrong. No, because you were making such a big deal that I had to look it up, we will be married 26 years in September 27. No sir, seven, no sir, you know it.

Speaker 1yes, I let Winston and Coco out this morning and did not know that geese were in the front yard, and so they took off and I looked out. They have babies. There's four little babies they had brought up there into the yard apparently. Well, apparently there's a granddaddy goose that.
Speaker 2I thought you were going to say granddaddy, long legs, no.
Speaker 1And he ain't going nowhere. And he flapped them wings and he, him and winston kind of got into it and he like, he like, threw down with his feet towards winston. I think they've got like this little dagger claw on the back of their heel or something like that. So he meant business, he wasn't afraid of winston, but I'll give it to winston, he wasn't afraid of granddaddy either. So winston's all bark.

Speaker 1Yeah, because it bothers me. It's been, yeah, a week now and I still I can't get used to it. Yeah, Because on my other one I wore down the edges. Yeah, this has an, It'll be all right. I was thinking about this week the TV that we grew up on in the 80s and 90s. Not everybody can say 80s because they weren't born yet. You know, that's the thing with that other podcast I do with Spencer. He was born in 2000. So a lot of the stuff that I talk about, he has no clue. He might have heard of something I'm talking about, but he doesn't know anything besides that.
Speaker 1So not his fault, but he's a young'un, but speaking of the 80s, you would know what I'm talking about, right.
Remembering 80s TV Shows
Speaker 2I was young in the 80s, so maybe, so I'm just going to go through.
Speaker 1I watched the 90s. Let's do this. What can you think of right now? What's your earliest memory of a TV show? It might be a cartoon.
Speaker 2Alf just popped in my head for some reason.
Speaker 1But I bet that's not the earliest.
Speaker 2No, that's probably not the earliest, because I think that was the 90s yeah.
Speaker 1I'm sure that's on our list somewhere down here.
Speaker 2Well, you got Bugs Bunny.
Speaker 1Yeah, you know, I never was, that was our thing. I liked Tom and Jerry, I think out of all of them I wasn't Flintstones, I wasn't the Jetsons.
Speaker 2Oh, I loved the Flintstones. I loved the Jetsons.
Speaker 1Looney Tunes wasn't really a thing. I liked Looney Tunes, it was just Tom and Jerry. Well, I guess all that Sylvester the Cat.
Speaker 2What's the Well? What we used to watch.
Speaker 1Marvin the Martian.
Speaker 2On Saturday mornings was wrestling, wasn't that?

Speaker 1Because me and the boys were talking about the monkeys. Did you ever watch the Monkees?

Speaker 1Do you remember a great American hero? It might have been called the greatest American hero, I'm not exactly sure.
Speaker 2I don't think so.
Speaker 1He was a. I can remember the outfit he wore, but he was not very good at being a superhero. It was funny.

Speaker 1Dynasty.
Speaker 2Now that's. I watched the new Dynasty. It's totally different.
Speaker 1Dynasty. That is a. I'm trying to think which one.
Speaker 2Who shot JR?
Speaker 1No, that's not Dynasty.
Speaker 2What is that? That is Dynasty.
Speaker 1No, that's not Dynasty.
Speaker 2What is?
Speaker 1it. Let me see if I can pull up a picture, picture and I will show you the characters of Dynasty.

Speaker 1We're talking about old. What's the one with South Fork and JR and Sue Ellen?
Speaker 2That's Dynasty, that's not Dynasty.
Speaker 1Yes, it is, no, it's not, I'm going to prove it.
Speaker 2Then just pull up JR, who shot J JR, and it'll pull up Magnum PI.
Speaker 1Why did I just think of that one? That is Dynasty? So there is two Dynasties.
Speaker 2Really, yes, there's two Dynasties the one that I, no, no, no, it's Dallas, dallas, yes.
Speaker 1See it just said who played JR on Dynasty. She's right, but no, here it is right here.
Speaker 2Dallas, yeah, dallas, no.
Speaker 1Yes, it was Dallas JR Ewing.
Speaker 2That's not what you said earlier. You said Dynasty.
Speaker 1No, that's what you said. You said Dynasty earlier. You said Dynasty earlier. If you're a wish brand, everybody can still hear you. You said it?
Speaker 2What about Magnum PI?
Speaker 1I liked Magnum PI. I liked his mustache and his car.
Speaker 2You just want his mustache.
Speaker 1I think everybody wanted his mustache. He's still rocking the mustache, is he? Yeah, I wonder if he's rocking Just For Men on that mustache.
Speaker 2You think so Probably.
Speaker 1Yeah, probably, maybe I should be rocking some Just For Men on mine.
Speaker 2No, I like the pepper, pepper salt and pepper, salt and pepper.
Speaker 1It's about to be all salt.
Speaker 2It seems like salt and pepper that's a group let's see what else I grew up with that group. Yeah, that's all on my list but you used to only have three to four channels, so you didn't have much of a choice I think, I kind of like it that way. We sit in here for 20 and 30 minutes looking for something to watch, I know, because you've got too much variety.
Speaker 1Yeah, exactly Well, it's the same way of going to the grocery store and you want Pop-Tarts? Well, that's why I buy groceries online. You need it, and.
Speaker 2I don't go and look at all the variety. I get what I want and that's it Okay.
Speaker 1I'd rather go.
Nostalgic TV Shows and Memories
Speaker 2No, not me. Yeah, the one that won't go through a drive-thru, but he'll go in the store.
Speaker 1That's right. I know that makes sense.
Speaker 2It looks like convenience is what I would be looking for, but who got him in the drive-thru yesterday?
Speaker 1That's the first time in a long time time. But guess who didn't say anything?
Speaker 2when they said you had to lean over and order.
Speaker 1Yeah, because I don't. If I'm going to the drive-thru somebody else is ordering, I don't know if we're. We never have told anybody that though that's my weird thing.
Speaker 2I go.
Speaker 1You told your boys no, I did not that. Nothing came up about somebody else ordering oh I didn't think nothing about it. Yeah, you never order. Yeah, they'd have got a kick out of it because it was crazy. I gotta reach all the way across.
Speaker 2And then he closes his eyes because I'm loud, I'm like, well, I don't know if they can hear me.
Speaker 1You're busting my right eardrum as you're screaming out to the lady so she can hear you on the speaker.
Speaker 2I want a cookies and cream milkshake Extra thick.
Speaker 1And then they say you hear that.
Speaker 2Yeah, and I said excuse, said excuse me. She said pull around. I said well, how much is it? Don't turn around, thanks because if you are with my husband, you're gonna pay cash, so I need to get my cash ready.
Speaker 1That's right, I ain't paying with no card. Are you gonna have to sit there and wait on me? I better get used to it because it won't be too.
Speaker 2I need to get my cash ready. That's right. I ain't paying with no card. Are you going to have to sit there and wait on me.
Speaker 1I better get used to it, because it won't be too long and it's going to be all card or nothing. Digital currency that's where we're going September United Nations. They're having a meeting.
Speaker 2They're going to be talking about digital currency A worldwide currency. Wait.
Speaker 1It's happening. Why are you pointing it's all coming true from the simpsons? No, it's called that book, called the bible from the simpsons called revelation. Oh, I'm sure you could probably go back and somewhere on one of the episodes of the simpsons they've got where we're going to a digital currency so the bible says september 2024 is when it's going to happen.
Speaker 2I'm not going to go quite that far but I'm talking about to where everybody yeah, if you don't know what I'm talking about, read it.
Speaker 1How about that? Did you watch Unsolved Mysteries?
Speaker 2I loved Unsolved Mysteries yeah.
Speaker 1It's nothing like a show that you would want to watch today.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's nothing like what a show that you would want to watch today. Yeah, you know it. Yeah, so can you find most of these shows still on somewhere? Not still on, but reruns of most of these shows somewhere? Can you stream it somewhere?
Speaker 1oh, I'm sure you can. I would just about bet what is life with louis? 94 to 98, that's louis Anderson. That's the animation that he had.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1Did you watch the Monsters? I know that's old, that's in the 60s.
Speaker 2Did you know that was?
Speaker 1only on for like two years.
Speaker 2You never watched, I don't.
Speaker 1You know, I had a time, a window of opportunity, I guess you'd say, and I think it was like when I was at my grandparents' house, like either early in the morning before school or like late in the evening when we got out of school. So whatever was on TV is what I watched, and so if it was like Gilligan's Island, the Munsters, stuff like that, then that's why I watched it.
Speaker 2Yeah.
