The "Free To Be You and Me" Generation: SUPERSIZED EDITION

Pop Culture Preservation Society

There's a new reason to celebrate the awesomeness of "Free To Be Generation" and we're chatting all about it in today's new opening. Kristin shares some exciting news which just might involve a PCPS roadtrip and meetup. Listen for all the scoop.

Free To Be ... You and Me was our generation's manifesto, played in every household and every classroom across the nation until we all knew that it was all right to cry, and mommies are people, and Atalanta didn't have to get married if she didn't want to. Join us for a deep dive on the album's origin story and take our hands, come along as we r-u-u-u-u-u-n-n-n-n with our own thoughts and feelings about our favorite songs and stories. Which lyrics made Kristin cry real tears ON THE AIR? And, 50 years later, how far do you think we've come? You might be surprised at some of the responses.
