About this listen

It’s two degrees below zero, an Alberta Clipper has swept through Indiana, and Greg has officially entered his property manager era—snow removal, salt trucks, and all. Andy and Greg warm up the microphones and reflect on cold mornings, neighborhood smells, junk mail scams, and the absurdity of modern home “protection” programs.

From memories of life before Wi-Fi to early dial-up internet, Atari, CompuServe email addresses, and daydreams about what the future might hold, this episode drifts effortlessly between humor and reflection. There are stories about grandmothers, first creative epiphanies, paying bills by mail, and the strange ways marketing, fear, and nostalgia collide in everyday suburban life.

As Season 3 winds down, Andy and Greg do what they do best—turn ordinary moments into laughter, perspective, and connection.

Welcome to the Suburbs.
