In this hilarious episode of The Real Spill Podcast, we’re talking about a new breed of elders — grandparents with sleeve tattoos, gold teeth, and a Bluetooth in their ear that never gets turned off.
We dive into the wild contrast between how 80s babies were raised (spoiler: we survived off whoopings, Kool-Aid, and being told to “stay out grown folks’ business”)… versus how 80s babies are raising their babies now — with gentle parenting, affirmations, and organic fruit snacks.
We cover:
✅ Why Grandma got a neck tattoo and still makes the best mac & cheese
✅ The difference between “go get my belt” vs “let’s talk about our feelings”
✅ And why kids today don’t know the struggle of blowing in a Nintendo cartridge
It’s nostalgia meets comedy — and just a little bit of truth.
Because these new school Grannies and Paw-Paws?
They twerking at the cookout and watching Bluey with the grandkids.
