GBNG Episode 5 - Mullets and Skinny Jeans

So whether you grew up thinking The Beatles were cool or you are a little younger and think Robert Downey Jr. is one of the coolest people alive, you have contemplated being cool.  We discuss this topic and it is no coincidence that this is one of our shortest podcasts. There isn't a lot of personal experiences for us to draw on for this topic. There are a couple of interesting studies done on the concept of cool that we will reference. If you were too cool for school or the antidote to cool this podcast might have something for you. Enjoy and have a good week. The new music was written and performed by Rance Coffelt.

"What Does It Mean To Be Cool? It May Not Be What You Think"  Rochester Study

A 10-year study points to something disturbing that happens to a lot of kids who are cool in high school.

Teens think Google is really cool ... according to a study by Google

Corrections:

-The person Kenny thought had been caught wearing fake Izod shirts had only told him the story of the same person James was talking about.

-Any time we reference our coolness. That should be down-graded to a category where the word cool is not part of the word.
