Pessimism & Poptarts

We Are Family - Part 2


Listen Later

Welcome back to the family saga that makes your relatives look like saints. In Part 2, siblings Ryan and Sandra dive headfirst into their father's side of the family, proving that the gene pool was definitely... unfiltered.


Before we get to the chaos, a quick disclaimer: our parents did the best they could with the trauma they had. Now, let's talk about Grandpa Bill, a man whose love language was apparently near-fatal accidents. From giving Grandma a concussion while ice fishing to actually dropping her off a pier in Oceanside , he was an accidental serial killer in the making. We also get the story of Grandma Lois's very direct, no-nonsense "sex talk".


Then, we meet the uncles—a wild cast of characters who took family gatherings to a new level with spud cannons, hairspray, and a whole lot of alcohol. We've got stories of being dangled off a second-story balcony and a harrowing tale of Uncle Kent attempting to drown Ryan in a creek. It's a miracle anyone survived.


Join us as we navigate the Van Dyke curse, reminisce about the relatives who are (mostly) all dead now, and plan an incredibly awkward family reunion episode that's bound to end in therapy.
