The Jedediaries episodes

  • Week 52: December 25–31, 1993
    Jedediah & Torrey go back to where it all began, for a live finale at their old high school in Morrisville, Vermont. Their friends and family are there, and many of them join them on stage to share what they've learned. And so, 1993, 2018, and the podcast… come to an end. And so: thank you. So much.

  • Week 49: December 4–10, 1993
    An unexpected and bewildering gift of Ferrero Rocher leads Jedediah & Torrey into a discussion where they QUESTION THE CONCEPT OF GRAVITY. And back in 1993, Little Jed continues to be excited about Christmas, makes a video, shoots a can off a fence, makes his mom a birthday present, has cool eyes, and makes a decision that he’ll regret for at LEAST the next week, if not forever. #holdyourgold

  • Week 48: November 27-December 3, 1993
    Jedediah gets the words to a song wrong and Torrey gets his mom the wrong gift. But to be honest, it’s a miracle we’re all not getting everything wrong all the time. Little Jed’s countdown to X-mas finally feels appropriate as we cross into December, with bad hair days, crappy mornings, canceled Playboys, abandoned comics, a now-cherished then-belated birthday gift, Hillary Clinton’s doomed foray into fixing America’s broken health care system, and Val Kilmer.

About The Jedediaries

From the publisher's feed

25 years ago, a 12-year-old boy kept a diary. He wrote in it every single day of the year 1993. This year – 2018 – that boy is a 37-year-old man, and he's going through that diary, week by week, to see how he's different, how he's the same, and what we can learn by figuring out who we used to be.
