Stay ConnectedGen X, This is Why is a podcast that re-examines the sometimes bizarre and often scarring media from our shared childhood. Jennie and Amye, sisters and sometimes mortal enemies, are your hosts. Our first stop is Walnut Grove as we take a fresh look at our favorite frontier family (as if we can name another), the Ingalls. There is some seriously weird sh*t in this show that answers a lot of questions…

In one of the wildest episodes in a while, Michael Landon recreates the Sanderson storyline with Jason Bateman and Cassandra Cooper. The Cooper children are orphaned after witnessing a horrific wagon accident in which their parents die right in front of their eyes. Charles, once again straddled with orphans, must find a home for these adorable kids.

I Do, Again: Seconds after Laura announces her first pregnancy and Manly falls through a roof, Caroline steals their moment by announcing she too is pregnant. Doc Baker must break the news to her that no, in fact, her life is ending, or she's in menopause-both reactions seem similar. The episode ends in a bizarre double wedding. We recast LHOTP with Meryl Streep, we need to start pre-recording our intro, and Albert gets a new nickname: no offense.

In this episode, Adam takes his first case after a two week stint in law school and is pretty much humiliated- we are HERE for it. Jennie is accused of slapping someone, Mark Twain and Colonel Sanders are the same person, HIPPA Laws will never stop Doc Baker, and we get a brief history of the SEC.

In the second part of the most scarring episode in Little House history, Sylvia and Albert fall in love and make plans to start a life together, against her weirdo father's wishes. We do get a hot Pa scene as he wrestles someone in the rain, and Doc Baker once again helps no one. This one gets pretty political, so be warned.

In this very special and scarring episode, a young, unsuspecting teenager gets assaulted by a blacksmith wearing a clown mask and is shamed and blamed for the attack. Wow, even writing that out is traumatic. We discuss a lot of serious stuff here, but also have a lively conversation about Jennie's trophies. Also, Jennie threatens to destroy the Me-Me B's.

Goodbye, Mrs. Wilder: Laura is DONE with her class full of ignorant kids who don't yet know what they haven't been taught. Harriet swoops in and decides these farmers' kids just need to learn art appreciation and French. The kids do everything they can to resist this change and lure Laura back with a plan to act like maniacs in bananatown. Amye gets a case of the giggles right up front, Jennie puts Carrie on the school board, and we have a rather boring conversation about The Last Kingdom.

Manly is trolled the entire episode and we are here for it. When his older brother, Royal, decides to go on a river cruise with his wife, they need a sucker to watch their terrible, rambunctious boys. They need a sucker. Hey everyone, it's Manly! Jennie is back from her trip, we struggle hard with geography, and Amye has to explain how an outhouse is constructed.

Harriet's bigotry and awfulness is dialed up to a ten when Percival's parents visit to meet their grandchild. Harriet and Benjamin clash over which religion the baby will practice. Nellie gives birth to twins: Jennifer (gag) and Benjamin.
PS-Jennie is recording from a closet in a Palm Springs hotel, and Amye is on a new, but older? MacBook, so there are a few sound hiccups. Sorry in advance!
