Welcome to Our Childhood Sucked! A podcast companion to the play of the same name. Over the span of this podcast, you will hear the entire devising process leading up to the first reading of OUR CHILDHOOD SUCKED as part of the Art House Productions INKubator New Play Festival that took place in May 2021. We came together to discuss our most formative yet problematic memories from pop culture in hopes of exposing our (and our audience’s) biases, blind spots, & insecurities, naming them, and acknowledging the need to move past our love for nostalgia.

OCS 4: I’m Going to Put Some Trauma on this Kid.

We continue talking through the effects of pop culture on how we viewed our relationships to our families. Among a variety of topics, we discuss a desire for non-dramatic family arcs, family dynamics in Stranger Things, the power of The Queen’s Gambit, and the brilliance of Bojack Horseman. This episode was recorded on October 28, 2020.

Special thank you to Ashton Chase for the use of his song "Michel Scott." Check out more of Ashton's great music on Spotify!
