Remembering How It Was - Episode 17: A Conversation: Nostalgia, Family, and the Changing Times

Wambui Bahati and her brother, Justin Washington, cover many topics in this podcast episode. The conversation starts with Justin's representation of the family at an event in Goldsboro, North Carolina. They talk about family members who have always been the go-to person in times of need. The conversation then moves to reminiscing about songs, folk stories, and how prices and the cost of living have changed over the years. Wambui and Justin share many humorous stories about their childhood experiences. They also talk about celebrities and how their mysterious allure has faded in today's social media era. They briefly discuss their aunt's beauty and makeup routine and how much fun collecting green stamps to trade for household items was. They also discuss the smoking habits of celebrities and how smoking was once glamorized in advertisements. The podcast is a delightful mix of family stories, nostalgia, and lighthearted humor. It evokes memories from their shared past and is definitely worth a listen. - - - - - - - - - - Into/Outro Music: "One Moment of Truth" - Eric Williams https://www.epidemicsound.com/referral/2v01qt#justinwashington #wambuibahati #GreensboroNorthCarolina #1950s #1960s #PersonalHistory #GreensboroNorthCarolina - - - - - Podcast Website: https://www.rememberinghowitwas.com/ - - - - - - - - - - Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-3053304 - - - - - Thank you!
