Remember when you got your first job?

That feeling of pride… your first paycheck… the moment you realized you weren’t just a kid anymore.

In this episode of Remember When Radio, we’re diving into the world of first jobs — from allowance and mowing lawns to janitor gigs, bad bosses, and working at McDonald’s.

Adam is joined by his brother as they share hilarious, nostalgic, and sometimes unexpected stories about the jobs that shaped them — including chaotic coworkers, tough lessons, unforgettable moments, and the realization that work teaches you a lot more than just how to make money.

Because your first job isn’t really about the job…
It’s about who you were becoming.

If you’ve ever had a tough first job, a bad boss, a chaotic workplace , or a job you stayed in way too long — this one’s for you.

Have you ever felt like something about the world just… changed?

Like the world we grew up in isn’t quite the same one we’re living in now.

In this episode of Remember When Radio, Adam reflects on how everyday life seems different from the one many of us remember — even compared to just 5 or 10 years ago. From people not talking to each other anymore, to the rising cost of living, to the strange feeling that the future used to feel more hopeful than it does today.

Why does it feel harder for people to connect with each other? Why does it seem like everyone is more divided? And why do so many people feel like something about the world is just… off?

This episode explores the contrast between the world we grew up in and the world we’re living in today — and why nostalgia for the past might be about more than just childhood memories.

If you enjoy thought-provoking conversations about society, nostalgia, culture, and how life has changed over time, this episode will definitely make you think.

Sometimes the biggest changes in the world aren’t the ones you read about in the news — they’re the ones you simply feel.

It’s been six years since COVID turned the world upside down. For a while there, it felt like common sense disappeared overnight. Grocery stores had traffic arrows, people were wiping down bananas, and toilet paper suddenly became the most valuable commodity in the world.

In this episode of Remember When Radio, we take a trip back to those strange early days of March 2020 — from the great toilet paper shortage, to masks, to lockdowns, and all the bizarre rules that seemed to appear overnight.

But beyond the absurdity, there’s also a bigger reflection: those years divided people in ways many of us had never experienced before. Friendships strained or fell apart, families fell out, and society lost so much of the connection that once held us together.

Maybe it’s time to rebuild some of that.

Because if we learned anything from 2020… it’s that we’re better off when we have each other.

Before taking a short break, I wanted to pause and say thank you.

Season 1 of Remember When Radio started as a simple idea — sharing stories, memories, and moments that shaped us — and it’s grown into something far more meaningful because of you.

Whether you listened to one episode or all of them, whether you shared it, messaged me, or just listened quietly on a walk or drive — I truly appreciate you.

If you’re looking for something to tide you over during the break, my book Remember When is available on Amazon.

Season 2 returns in March. Until then — thank you for being here.

Christmas has a way of revealing who we were… and who we’re becoming.

In this episode, I reflect on how Christmas changes as we move through life — from tearing into presents as kids, to carefully saving the wrapping paper… from counting the seconds until our parents woke up, to realizing how rare that kind of magic can feel as adults.

We talk about sneaking out of our bedrooms at 4am, lying awake waiting for the day to begin, Christmas Eve church and carols, and the quiet realization that none of us really know how many Christmases we have left.

Things change.
We change.
And when the magic does show up — even briefly — it matters.

So don’t waste this one.

When we were kids, Christmas wasn’t subtle.

You made sure everyone knew what you wanted.
You dragged every adult in your life to the toy store “just to look.” You poured over catalogues with your siblings, memorizing every page and every possibility.

In this episode, I tell the story of the one gift I wanted more than anything — the Lego Black Seas Barracuda — and the long wait that came with it. A story of sibling betrayal, the longest Christmas Eve of my life, and the quiet fear that the thing you wanted most might disappear before Christmas morning.

Along the way, I reflect on what made Christmas feel so magical when we were kids — not just the gifts themselves, but the love and care behind them, and how simple acts by others become memories you cherish for the rest of your life .

This episode is about wanting, waiting, and the people who made Christmas feel larger than life.

Remember missions to the mall, stalking people for parking spaces, and trying to find that one perfect gift? This episode dives into the holiday shopping chaos of days gone by — wandering crowded malls, hiding toys behind shelves, sibling teamwork, and parents trailing behind like zombies — and compares it to how unbelievably easy shopping feels today.

It’s a mix of nostalgia, humor, and reflection on what we’ve gained, what we’ve lost, and why those chaotic moments somehow felt more meaningful than clicking “add to cart.”

Before Christmas had sales and shipping deadlines, it had Advent candles and calendar heists.

For many of us, Christmas didn’t officially begin until the first Advent candle was lit.

In this episode, we revisit Advent wreaths, decorating the house, Christmas lights, and the unforgettable thrill of sneaking extra chocolates from the Advent calendar. A funny, nostalgic look at the moment the holiday season truly began.

From psychological warfare in chess to Monopoly meltdowns, Adam and his special guests — his dad and brother — look back at the games that turned family fun into family feud.

It’s laughter, chaos, and a little bit of love — the kind of memories that made growing up unforgettable.

Because in the end, even when the boards flipped and the rules got “bent,” one thing was always true: family was everything.

The “almosts,” the “what-ifs,” and the moments you wish you could redo — Adam looks back at a few of his own, from a $42 misfire to a White Spot waitress ”What if?” that still haunts him.

When you were a kid, Halloween wasn’t a holiday — it was a war zone.
