Hey there, podcast listeners.
Ira here to announce that I am helping kick off the Tribeca Festival with a live event in New York City on June 10th.
That's Tuesday night, June 10th.
I'm going to be on stage with Ira Madison III, the host of the podcast, Keep It.
What we're going to do is we're going to take a little era's tour through 30 years of this American life,
visit different periods of the show with clips and stories.
Tickets are on sale now at tribecafilm.com.
slash thisamericanlife.
Again, that is tribecafilm.com slash thisamericanlife.
If you're in New York, I hope you can come out.
I think it's going to be fun.
A quick warning.
There are curse words that are unbeaped in today's episode of the show.
If you prefer a beeped version, you can find that at our website, thisamericanlife.org.
My dad's ATM password was 1119 till the day he died.
1119 was also in the password for his home Wi-Fi network.
1119 was shorthand for 1119 Bayard Street, which is where his grandfather, my great-grandfather,
owned a tiny grocery store on the ground floor of a house in downtown Baltimore in the 1920s,
30s, 40s, 50s.
Picture a neighborhood bodega, and you've got the general size of this thing.
