Episode 210: Being Cool v. Doing Well In School In the 90s; When the Titanic Was Found; Banned Foods In the U.S.(9-3-2025)
*Donate on GoFundMe to help me direct my first short film!*
The struggle between doing well in school and being cool. The discovery of the wreck of the Titanic. Some foods that are banned in the United States.
Episode 210 counts down to the end of summer with a new batch of Gen-X nostalgia.
It kicks off with an amazing discovery. In 1912, the seemingly unsinkable Titanic went down in the cold North Atlantic Ocean. For more than 70 years, its whereabouts remained a mystery. That all changed in 1985 when an expedition finally discovered the ship's final resting place. We go back 40 years to look at when the Titanic was found and some of the ship's story in general.
High school is a challenging time for many teenagers. There can be a struggle between doing well academically and trying to fit in with the cool crowd. This is true in any decade, but was especially true in the 1990s. Plus, I was there, so I can speak to it more than any other time.
These foods you will likely not find in your average grocery store. The Top 5 looks at some foods that have been banned in the United States. Some are fairly obvious, while others make less sense. Have you tried any of these?
There is, as always, a brand new This Week In History and Time Capsule looking at the ending of World War II.
