DISCLAIMER: As a matter of public health and safety, Cate and Lori strongly believe in the importance of trusted, accessible alcohol and drug education and resources for everyone. The Untitled GenX Podcast does not condone the use of illegal substances and Cate and Lori would like to remind you party people to enjoy the legal stuffs responsibly.

On this very special episode, Cate and Lori tackle the weird, wishful-thinking anti-drug PSAs of the 1980s. From "your brain on drugs" to “I learned it by watching you,” the gals have a lot to say about the oversimplified "Just Say No" movement.

The always-responsible ladies talk about drugs in suburbia, uncovering a parent's stash, "moral failures," experimentation, and a very serious Pee-wee Herman.
