Thank you for the summer read episode. I am not a great reader but now have a few tools to make it easier. Used the book link to purchase 3 books to read over the summer. One of them is Everything has Happened.
A friend turned me on to this podcast a few years back and it’s helped me keep on grooving through some rough and also wonderful times. I like the science that is brought to nostalgia and the sense of community that is shared among Gen X folks in this little corner of the big scary tech world. Thank you! Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars!
I’ve almost finished the entire backlist of the PCPS - now I will have to wait in real time for the weekly -really love this podcast. I can relate to so many of their topics and really enjoy the camaraderie among the 3 women-highly entertaining

Especially Grease! I saw it at least 12 times in the theater with my neighborhood friends. We knew it by heart and sang and danced to the record. Speaking of records, I actually came in here specifically to comment on your “K-Tel’s Music Express” episode. I had the exact record you talked about. ... more

The format blends warm banter, collaborative storytelling, and occasional guest appearances, creating a welcoming space for fans to reminisce and discover new angles on familiar favorites.
