Friday’s Topic: I Accuse My Parents

Did your parents mess you up with “toxic parenting” (©1990)? Oh, you don’t want to talk about it on the radio because your drunk mom set the patio furniture on fire and your dad killed your pet fish in angry rage and it’s too much of downer to think about? That’s OK. We wanted something more quirky, anyway, like the guy (no names!) who grew up thinking he had to wear tighty-whites UNDER his boxer shorts or the woman who’s afraid to talk to anyone with blue eyeshadow.  Admitting you have a problem is the first step in moving out of mom’s basement. Self-help us to self-help you.

Call us on the air this Friday (201-209-9368) with your non-depressing, non-nauseating, non-libelous tales of parenting gone wrong. We might even get a call from Andy’s daughter! (His son is still doing “closet time” for breaking a juice glass).

Listen in this Friday from 6 to 7pm (Eastern) on WFMU 91.1 (NYC area) or WFMU.org (if you position your foil hat just right).
