In this episode, Shaun and Imran take a nostalgic trip down memory lane as we dive into the world of classic soap operas that filled our screens when we were kids. From the overly dramatic storylines to those cliffhanger endings that kept us hooked, we revisit the shows that shaped our after-school routines and family living room battles over the remote.
We talk about the characters we loved, the ones we loved to hate, and those wild plot twists—evil twins, sudden amnesia, long-lost siblings—that made soap operas so addictive and, let’s face it, totally ridiculous in the best way possible.
We also explore the little things that drive us—and our listeners—up the wall. That’s right, it’s time to air out our pet peeves! From people who talk during emotional scenes to characters who never seem to age, we discuss what made watching these shows both a pleasure and a pain.
Tune in for plenty of laughs, guilty pleasures, and a deep dive into the wonderfully dramatic world of soap operas and our shared TV-watching quirks!
