Childhood Memories and We Survived
Four friends from different corners of America share their earliest childhood memories and adventures. We survived climbing water towers, building elaborate backyard forts to neighborhood games to school discipline to creating our own entertainment.
• Earliest memories for each host – including Ron's white spider sighting, Jeffy's bunk bed accident, and Rayette's open-heart surgery at age three
• Backyard adventures featuring neighborhood forts, stolen construction materials, and territories claimed within rows of trees
• Growing up with music and how Ron was inspired by his older brother's rock band performances
• Neighborhood games including "Smear the Queer," army men battles, and sports played in sprinklers
• Tales of climbing water towers, getting caught by police, and miraculously avoiding punishment
• School discipline stories featuring paddles with "lightning holes" and the double punishment of getting in trouble at school and home
• How their fearlessness as children contrasts with their adult caution around heights and physical risks
