EP 20: The Older We Get

About this episode

The brothers discuss family memories and the realities of aging with their Aunt Lisa.

In this episode, the brothers are joined by their Aunt Lisa for a conversation that starts with a summer-themed Mount Rushmore draft and a trip down memory lane before turning into something much deeper. Together, they share favorite family memories, reflect on relationships that have shaped their lives, and discuss the realities of getting older as families grow, change, and spread out. Along the way, they talk about what people worry too much about, the advice they would give their younger selves, what adulthood has taught them, and why time and relationships become more valuable with each passing year. Books Lisa Shared: 1) The Turning by the Linda and Richard Eyre, 2) The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure by Greg Lukionoff and Jonathan Haidt
