To all the friends I didn’t keep in touch with (Vol.3, 1981)

I find out that teenagers have always been angsty about what to do with their lives and that despite being 25 I’ve still got the angst…

Mum is turning 18!! She’s an ADULT, ready to go out into the world and have adventures that fill volumes and volumes of journals which eventually become this podcast!

We read all about the birthday celebrations, the various gifts mum got, an article in The Age that annoyed mum so much she wrote a letter to them and sent it in, speech night at school and how mum wants to keep touch with all her school friends, keep listening to see how that goes…

We chat about the evolution of café and coffee culture (seriously can’t throw a stone in Melbourne without hitting a barista), how we as a society always look towards the future, how it’s funny it is to look back at what people thought our future would be, how in the 80s they were like yep definitely flying cars by the year 2010

Oh and not to mention mum’s existential moment where she ‘listened to some Beatles and thought about my future’ 

As always, listen to experience: cringe, giggles and some real-life shit.
