In this episode, Don and Eva respond to comedian Steve Brown’s viral reel from the Smitty and Dee Podcast, where he goes off about people wearing pajamas, bonnets, and carrying pillows in the airport—and young guys rocking skinny jeans. Steve says it’s a no-go. Don and Eva? Not so fast.

Watch as they unpack the cultural judgment and why comfort and personal style shouldn’t be up for debate. Is this just comedy—or is there a deeper message underneath the laughs? Who made Steve (or anyone) the airport dress code enforcer anyway? Join the conversation - Is it really that deep?

Podcasting Help: Learn about how we make the Chat & Bother podcast and get podcasting tips

Thirteen tapes for a penny from Columbia House? Win a million dollars if you order some magazines from Publisher's Clearing House? PART of a complete breakfast? Learning to break dance from Alfonso Ribero's BOOK? In the 80's they really went all in on getting our attention—and our allowance money.

Gen X grew up in an advertising wonderland, where every cartoon had a toy line, every cereal had a mascot, and everything we saw on TV was a commercial in disguise. In this episode, Don and Eva talk bout their favorite ads and how marketers targeted an entire generation with jingles, prizes, and pop culture tie-ins that were impossible to ignore. Were we the most advertised-to generation in history—or just the first to know we were being sold to? Let’s rewind the VHS and find out.
