#sorryasianparents Episode13: Music We Grew Up With (The Cringy Years)

Hi hi,

Being stuck in my tiny LA apartment and only being able to hang out with my friends via Internet this past year has brought my friends and me closer to the music we used to listen to . . . back during our cringy days. In this episode, we have a new face, Anthony, joining Laura, Brooke, and me.

Join us as we laugh our way through the nostalgic pains of our teenage years. We will be talking about bands such as Linkin Park, Death Cab for Cutie, Sum 41, The Shins, and whatever was on the American Pie or Garden State soundtrack. Of course, we will talk about those “stripper moves” we learned at middle school dances to wholesome tunes such as “Get Low,” “Candy Shop,” and “You and Me”.

Iono, lots of emotions felt during the early 2000s; we’re older but still just as emo. If you have embarrassing stories of your own, please share them. Also, the like and subscribe thing if you had a good time laughing (hopefully) with us.
