Show Notes
In this episode of Excuse My Grandma, Kim and Grandma Gail bridge the distance between New York and Palm Beach to dive into the heartfelt questions listeners wish they could ask their own grandparents. From childhood memories of Grandma Gail giving her dolls buzz cuts to insightful reflections on why friendships evolve or fade as we age, the duo explores the nuances of growing up in the 1950s versus today. They also discuss nostalgic trips to neighborhood amusement parks, family sing-alongs to Frank Sinatra, and Gail's "lucky" dating history, all while touching on the importance of documenting family stories and savoring memories before they are lost to time.
