A fun and tangent filled discussion of every episode of the classic 80s/90s sitcom, Perfect Strangers. Fabian and Aaron are going through the episodes as they aired and are finding that not only does the show hold up, but that it’s funnier now than when they were watching it in their youth. Frequent guests (old fans and new) will bring their own perspective and a good time will be had by all.
In this episode, Aaron and Fabian welcome back, Caitlin Wittlif. This time we're not talking Dolly Parton, we're talking birthdays...and also chest hair (lots of chest hair), the purpose (if any) of printer calculators, and the kindest and most random of Strangers you could find to make a Perfect last minute birthday party.Heckly and Jeckle “The Talking Magpies”Myra Turley in Mad Menwww.perfectstrangerspodcast.comMERCHINSTAGRAMSUPPORT THE SHOWTWITTERBLOGOh and Caitlin's band -- Mister Blank
In this episode, Aaron and Fabian participate in their first Podcast Crossover when they are joined by the host of the ultimate 80s/90s nostalgia podcast, Thirty Pop and the creator of Milieu Media, Luke Brawner. We find ourselves in awe of Balki's workout routine (Buttock Pinches) and how Murder, She Wrote was The Walking Dead of the 1980s.

Aaron simultaneously updates us on when episode 5 will drop while also throwing episode 5's guest under the bus. He does so with full permission of said guest host (Luke Brawner) and gives some shoutouts to the listeners. www.perfectstrangerspodcast.comMERCHINSTAGRAMSUPPORT THE SHOWGUEST CAITLYN IN A MUSIC VIDEOGUEST LEANOR IN A VIRTUAL MUSIC VIDEO BLOG
In this episode, Fabian and Aaron are joined by Leanor Ortega Till of the one and only Five Iron Frenzy. Naturally the discussion “steers” towards our unique experiences learning to drive (like say in a cemetery), taking (and maybe failing) our driver's exam, and what we all thought was going to happen to that grapefruit. And then there's a little ska talk, but not that much.

In this episode, Aaron and Fabian welcome Seth Banister. It's a real nostalgia feast for the ears as we discuss some famous Chicago Bears, odd and ancient (70s!) beer commercials, ED-209, and how Cousin Larry is really a sort of mirror reflection of any of us who've ever found ourselves wrestling with adulthood while clinging tightly to all of our childhood issues and fears.
