Episode 97: That Latchkey Life: An Anecdotal Exploration of Childhood of Generation X

In this episode, Marc and Kristina share personal and twitter followers' anecdotes about life as kids growing up Gen X. This is the first of two episodes that will include: Latchkey living, strange 70s parenting hacks, sex, toys that could kill you and lies that all parents told us. We had a lot of fun tripping down memory lane. We appreciate you listening to us each week and if you enjoy our content we'd appreciate it if you'd share us with a friend.
