On this very special ON REPEAT Season 1 episode, Cate and I tackle the weird, wishful-thinking anti-drug PSAs of the 1980s. From "your brain on drugs" to “I learned it by watching you”, we have a lot to say about the oversimplified "Just Say No" movement.
We chat about drugs in suburbia, uncovering a parent's stash, "moral failures," experimentation, and one very serious Pee-wee Herman.
