  • What's Your Favorite Cereal? | The Cereal Aisle Raised Us

    What's your favorite cereal? Sounds like a simple question, right? Well, the answer changes depending on your age, your memories, and who's paying for the groceries. 😂🥣

    In Episode 2 of Nostalgia Matters, Glenn Hadley, Jr. takes a trip down the cereal aisle to revisit the childhood experiences that made breakfast unforgettable.

    We're talking Saturday morning cartoons, legendary cereal mascots, commercials that promised a “balanced breakfast,” prizes buried inside cereal boxes, and the great cereal-milk debate.

    But somewhere between being the kid begging for a favorite cereal and becoming the parent paying for it, something changes.

    Same cereal aisle. Different perspective.

    Join me as we explore why these little childhood experiences stay with us—and why nostalgia matters.

    Join the conversation: What was YOUR favorite childhood cereal? And has your answer changed as you've gotten older?

  • I Have No Idea What I’m Doing… And That’s the Point

    What happens when you stop waiting until you have everything figured out and...start?

    Welcome to the first episode of "NOSTALGIA MATTERS."

    I’m Glenn Hadley, Jr., aka Nostalgic Girl Dad, and for years I’ve been much more comfortable thinking, planning, and working behind the scenes than actually putting my own ideas into the world. This episode is me changing that.

    I talk about the realization that finally pushed me into action, nostalgia, and fatherhood; revisiting pieces of my childhood through my daughters’ eyes and permitting myself to start before I know exactly where this journey is going.

    This isn’t the story told after everything worked out.

    This is the beginning.

    The past. The present. What we build next.
