Dorm Disorder

Vending Machines, Water Balloons, and Zoom Romance


Listen Later

This week on Dorm Disorder, we prove that Girard College was less "boarding school" and more "supervised chaos with a curfew." Alumni Rosilyn Munoz and Mike Coley join host Dan and Mike to explain how they went from schoolmates to a Zoom-era pandemic romance — because nothing says "rekindled love" like reconnecting during lockdown. Mike confesses to a career of vending machine larceny and expert-level dorm infiltration. Rosilyn admits to getting suspended in eighth grade for what we're generously calling "extracurricular beverage research." Dan recounts the water balloon fight that ended with his roommate getting hit with a two-person balloon and a night on a mattress that never fully dried. Then things get real: dating at boarding school means your ex is always one hallway away, especially if they move on before you do — case in point, Dan's infamous breakup-by-letter, followed by a very public pancake-adjacent screaming match the next morning. Oh, and apparently a suspicious number of Girard grads — including both hosts of this podcast — ended up marrying people they met on campus. Coincidence? Dorm Disorder thinks not.
