This week the Bayer siblings are thrilled to welcome their friend and actress/comedian/podcaster Casey Wilson to talk about Baz Luhrmann's "Romeo + Juliet"! Wow, wow and wow! Casey and Vanessa discuss how in love they were with Leo AND their desperate attempts to talk to him, both as children and adults! Plus, Jonah and Vanessa talk about meeting Claire Danes and/or Jared Leto from the spiritual companion tv show of "Romeo + Juliet" which everyone knows is "My So-Called Life"! We also dig into the iconic "Romeo +Juliet" Soundtrack- where would we all be without The Cardigans' song "Lovefool" after all??? Plus, Vanessa talks about the one time she was thrown a surprise party (spoiler alert: She did not like it!... until she saw there was a cookie cake) and in a rousing game of YES/NO-STALGIA we say no thank you to the return of platform flip-flops, and much more!! So love us, love us, say that you love us and listen to this incredible episode!!

Transcript

Speaker 100:00:03.200

Hi. I'm Vanessa Beyor and this is my brother Jonah. We're two siblings who loved to talk about our childhood and nostalgia and how it shaped us into the people we are today, who are really bougie if I do say so myself. Welcome to How Did We Get Weird? So, Jonah, I was thinking the other day about a surprise party that was thrown for me when I was thirteen or fourteen, and I just do you remember when there was a surprise party for me at our house?
