Everyone Loves Nostalgia
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Remember when our bodies were nice and tight?
That's nostalgia.
Kelly and Don dig into Nostalgia psychology & why everyone is obsessed with the 90s and 2000s right now, whether nostalgia is genuinely good for you, or a trap keeping you stuck in the past.
From Don's deeply embarrassing bowl cut confession to Kelly's 21-person landline group call that went completely silent, we cover the nostalgia trend hitting Gen Z and Millennials hard right now — including why Gen Z is nostalgic for eras they never even lived through.
Plus: Hollywood's nostalgia obsession (lazy or brilliant?), the rise of the Luddite Boyfriend, and we play Peak, Mid, or Cringe with 90s and Y2K culture. Scholastic Book Fair.
You've been warned.

==============================
Channel About:
Come be AWESOME with Kelly and Don.
Two Awesome People is a comedy and pop culture show where a married couple decodes the chaos of modern life. We are taking a look at the stuff our kids understand way too well, from viral TikTok trends and "Manosphere" deep dives to the bizarre world of speed puzzling and AI fruit dramas.
We are not here to give you parenting advice or marriage counseling; we are here to survive it with you. Join us every week as we break down the latest viral moments, share preschool teacher horror stories, and argue over whether "raw dogging" a flight is actually just meditation in disguise.
If you enjoy relatable laughs, middle-aged takes on weird internet subcultures, and honest conversations about life after 40, you have found your people.
