Have you ever wondered how your childhood experiences shape the way you parent today? Join us as we revisit the mid to late 80s, a time when bike rides and outdoor adventures were the essence of growing up, especially in single-parent households. We reflect on the trust and freedom we enjoyed, and how those carefree days starkly contrast with today's tech-driven parenting.

Our journey doesn't stop there. Relive some of our favorite childhood hangouts, like the time we snuck into a boat at a local body shop to savor some candy—a mischievous adventure that still brings a smile. Fast forward to a modern tale of exceptional customer service at Sonic, where a young manager named Chris turned an unforeseen delay into a memorable experience by going above and beyond. Chris's dedication to customer satisfaction not only resolved a minor inconvenience but also left a lasting impression on us about the power of great service.

Finally, we explore the quirks and charms of Santos Coffee’s refill policy, sharing entertaining anecdotes from visiting multiple branches. Even when a manager clarified that free specialty drink refills aren't standard, our admiration for Santos Coffee remained unwavering. The episode wraps up with an insightful discussion on balanced relationships, inspired by Proverbs 4:23, emphasizing the importance of surrounding ourselves with positive influences that contribute to our growth and well-being. Tune in for a blend of nostalgia, humor, and valuable life lessons that resonate across generations.

If you have any questions, comments, ideas, or would like to say hello, the guys would love to hear from you.
