Show Notes
On This Episode...The Vocal Minority with Nick & Steve dives into the wild, lawless childhoods of Generation X and the things we got away with that would make today’s parents shrivel up in tiny ball. For instance, did you ever save up your allowance to buy cigarettes? We did. What about bike helmets? Gen X didn't put their heads in those stupid things. Were we just built differently, or are today’s kids overprotected?
Then, we take a look at dating rules from the 1960s that seem downright freaky, now. Imagine having to ask a girl’s father before you could even ask her out—was that respect, or just ridiculous? And when you pick someone up for a date, do you honk the horn, text, or get out of your car like a human from the 1960s and ring the doorbell?
All of this and so much more on this episode of "The Vocal Minority with Nick and Steve."
