This episode starts out with a tribute to one our favorite childhood TV “neighbors.” We then discuss several different “mythical” creatures and whether each of us are fully convinced they don’t exist, plausibly believe they could exist, or adamantly express that they are real. We finish off with a conversation about extraterrestrial existence and whether God could have created other beings in the universe that is just “out of this world” (a bad pun, we know). Enjoy!

Since our conversation constantly dives into topics from our past, we decided to take an episode and focus on the topic of nostalgia! We talk about our most memorable birthday parties as kids, and how to build nostalgic memories for our own children. We then give our opinions on the question, “Will ‘pop-culture nostalgia’ die with the 1990’s?”

Coming off a close encounter with being poisoned, Jamie and Maegy are still a little sore with Mikey. They quickly get over it and move on to conversations about “Things that do not exist anymore, but did you notice they were gone?” They then discuss holidays and traditions in American culture that are just plain bizarre when you think about them. They may be spoilers for young kids, so you’ll want to turn the volume down when that section comes up!

In this episode Mikey nearly poisons the crew on accident. Hear our genuine live reactions as we realize on the podcast that we’ve ingested something bad by mistake. But before all that occurred we were having a great time talking about back to school and our thoughts about what we felt about it as kids versus now as adults with kids. See if you agree with our opinions and enjoy our hilarious freak-out session towards the end of the podcast.

“Is it bad to take advantage of the ‘system’?” Mikey gives several examples from his adult life where he has skirted the line to save a buck or two and asks Jamie and Maegy to evaluate if what he did was “Playing By the Rules”, “Taking Advantage of the System”, or “Just Plain Wrong.” In this one we think Mikey set out to provide some quality entertainment, but ultimately came out looking a little like a bad person…or maybe he’s a genius, you decide.

Jamie’s back and provides a brief update on his adoption, time with his girls at home, and his experience parenting so far. The group then dives in to answer the question “Is there no such thing as coincidence?” The Middle Lifers use faith, personal opinions, and share their own experiences to back their answers…and they don’t all completely agree.

This recording was originally going to be Episode 3 of Season 2, but never got aired! Now, it’s been resurrected for your listening pleasure! In the episode we start by talking about Mike and Maegy’s spoiled anniversary, Jamie and Danielle’s awful first dates, and stories about plans that just went wrong. The conversation moves to a discussion about the importance of music relating to past events in our lives. What was the first radio tune we remember? What was the first album we bought with our own money? The grand finale of this episode is the group listening to and dissecting pieces of a 6 song EP called “Jesus Project” that Mikey wrote and self-recorded when he was a teenager.

This week the Middle Life crew is graced by the wisdom and life experience of our good friend, Mark. It is quickly noted by the group that Mark is old enough to be our parent, so the “seasoned” jokes start, and don’t stop! Seriously though, he’s probably one of the coolest people we know. Along the way, we have some amazing discussion about generation gaps, including the importance of having mentors, how to stay relevant to younger generations, generational misunderstandings, and so much more. This episode is jam packed with amazing discussion! We hope you love listening to it as much as we loved recording it!
