Ep 44 - Why Being a Kid in the 90s Was ELITE đ
Man Like You with Mo Gilligan, Babatunde Aléshé & Eddie KadiShow Notes
What did we love most about being kids â and what do we wish someone had taught us before we grew up? This week on Man Like You, Mo Gilligan, Babatunde AlĂ©shĂ© and Eddie Kadi are taking it all the way back. From six-week summer holidays, sleepovers and birthday money mysteriously disappearing into Mumâs pocket, to IKEA feeling like a genuine day out, old-school minicabs, skinny jeans and the forgotten TV shows that defined a generation.
We also ask: What are the important conversations every father should have with his son?
Money, heartbreak, failure, looking after yourself, confidence and preparing your children for a world they donât fully understand yet â the boys share the lessons they had to learn the hard way and the ones they hope to pass on.
And, naturally, it all ends with a battle over forgotten â90s and 2000s television that gets VERY competitive.
Another Episode not to be missed! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
