What’s something you loved as a kid… that just doesn’t hit the same anymore? Or somehow got better?

In this episode, Trever and Bry kick things off with an important (and slightly revealing) question about ice cream truck orders before diving into a conversation about how childhood experiences shift as we grow up. From magical hot air balloon festivals that lose a little sparkle, to theme parks that now induce nausea instead of joy, to lakes that are… maybe filled with things we’d rather not think about—they explore how awareness, knowledge, and adulthood reshape the things we once loved.

Along the way, they swap stories about electric cars that got way cooler, roller coasters that flipped from terrifying to fun (or the opposite), hiking without someone yelling “get off the rocks,” and the surprising ways fear, nostalgia, and experience all play into how we see the world.

It’s funny, a little unhinged (looking at you, black widows and childhood trauma), and ultimately thoughtful: how do we hold onto wonder while also growing up?

Also: lakes are questionable, sherbet is controversial, and apparently we’re all just doing our best with the information we had at age eight.
