About this listen
It’s the Series One Finale! In this nostalgic send-off, Jack and Kelly celebrate that unforgettable rite of passage: the last day of school. Think end-of-year discos, shirt-signing rituals, and that buzzing feeling of summer stretching out ahead.
But first, we welcome a special guest and proper mate of the pod — Beth — who was born in 2000 and missed the '90s completely. We quiz her on all things retro to find out if she really knows her tamagotchis from her Toploaders, and get her take on what it means to grow up just after the era we all still bang on about.
We wrap up with a few very special listener letters telling us what the pod has meant to them this series (spoiler: we got a bit emotional).
It’s been a mint first run — but don’t worry, we’ll be back in September for Series Two, where we’re diving deep into the pop culture phenomena of the ‘90s and ‘00s: from girl bands and gadgets to teen dramas and clubland CDs.
School’s out for summer — but Growing Up Up North is just getting started!
A huge thank you to all listeners of the pod - you have made the last 7 months amazing!
