An American Childhood Dream

Childhood Ruiners - Harry Potter Edition

Oh boy, if we could only Riddikulus this one away. Lou and Frankie delve into the wizarding world as the entry point to the question: what do you do with a childhood joy that isn't so... Joyful? Tangents include Hershey's Chocolate, the importance of recycling, and of course... Twilight. Whatever you decide to enjoy in this brief life, we love you for listening and hope you find all the happiness! ------ Support the show with merch from samehereman.com!

Childhood Chores and Big News

Spin the Chore Wheel and join Lucille and Marie and... Francine (!) as we delve into the world of childhood house and yard work! We talk about the different things parents obsess over and how it makes for different perspectives as we clean our homes in adult life, Marie tortures the Mills sisters with a Christian Chore Song (linked below), and Francine insists that a housekeeper and a nanny are the same.  Give Frankie (Francine) a big welcome to the show, and send Marie and her new little one all the love in the world!  ---- Email the show at sameheremanpod@gmail.com Visit the show (with merch!) at samehereman.com [//samehereman.com] Follow the show on Twitter [//twitter.com/sameheremanpod] or TikTok [//TikTok.com/@samehereman.pod]  Listen to a cursed chore song on YouTube [https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjktNjNlpj9AhX8ADQIHddwD5QQFnoECAkQAw&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DJmtf3YWMsGk&usg=AOvVaw1N75pyNZSVzHmvZXN6dRP1]

Corporal Punishment Spectacular

Lou and Marie strap in for a bumpy ride through the (unnecessarily) rough terrain of spanking and more. Marie shares a story of corporal punishment in school, Lou spent all the podcast money on a Time Machine, and you'll know who has a strange internet search history by the end of this episode. As a bonus, you can hear Lucille's Roomba in the background if you listen really hard.  CP and CSA are rough topics. Please take care of yourself, and don't listen to this episode in a compromising environment.

The December Dilemma

Happy Gregorian New Year, Same Here Squad! Marie Renee and Lucille are back to talk about a viral Christmas-in-schools Twitter thread, with detours involving palm trees, Barbara Walters, and more.

An American Childhood Dream

Marie and Lou talk a grab-bag of Americana, featuring the participation trophy fallacy, the American Dream®, and the weird context of "achieve anything" when set next to watching adults try and fail... and try again. This episode was recorded before Marie's pregnancy, and before Lucille lost her dad, so it may sound a bit off in the timeline.  Find the podcast and fun merch at samehereman.com [//samehereman.com]  Send us a message, idea, or voice memo at sameheremanpod@gmail.com
