Story Lords, Skin Checks, and Suspicious Dad Holsters | JJMW-E495
About this episode
JJ and Tucker discuss a humorous trip to the dermatologist, dad fashion, and nostalgic educational television.
JJ and Tucker kick things off with a deeply uncomfortable but very funny trip to the dermatologist, as JJ recounts waiting over a year for a full body skin check only to discover the suspicious spot on his shoulder was simply an age spot. From there, the conversation spirals into dad fashion choices, questionable coats, detective-style phone holsters, childhood style phases, and the strange confidence of people who simply do not care what they look like. Then it's a nostalgic dive into educational television, including Story Lords , Take a Look , The Puzzle Place , public broadcasting, bizarre puppet intros, forgotten classroom videos, punk rock theme song covers, and the surprisingly intense music of childhood learning shows. Plus, JJ wraps up a play and previews a theater trip to the Twin Cities to see Sleuth and Harry Potter and the Cursed Child .
