Newsletter For The Week Of September 4, 2019.
REAMS. (Eli McCann, The Beehive)
“At REAMS, it is always Utah in 1983, and I am 1000% here for it.There was a REAMS down the street from my house when I was growing up. It was our go-to store. Why wouldn't it be? In one single stop you could buy cantaloupe, one of those giant rainbow jawbreakers, and jeans.
Side note about the jawbreakers. These were the childhood version of knitting for me. In 2019, I knit while I watch TV. But in 1990, I licked these jawbreakers into diabetic oblivion.”
This Is The Place Podcast (Chris Rawle, Meg Walter, The Beehive)
Meg and Chris continue pushing the limits of tampon talk. How much is too much? A woman named Linda threatens a dentist office. Chris gives a lengthy diatribe on sewage, biosolids, and sludge churning – Meg gags and offers her own tale of terrible odors. A woman not named Linda pretends to be her daughter while being busted for drug possession. Lagoon spills a chemical and kills a bunch of fish. WHY DOES NOBODY CARE ABOUT FISH? In a shocking twist, the episode closes with even more tampon talk.
