It's a Binghamton Thing

It's a Binghamton Thing

Retired from teaching, Julie decided to start a podcast. Come listen as she talks to people from Binghamton, discusses pop culture and dives into beauty and makeup. According to her she thinks everyone who grew up here is a "Local Legend" or "Binghamton Famous." Not only just the obvious movers and shakers, but the unsung heroes like the cashier at your favorite childhood grocery store. She'll also share beauty info she's learned along the way (Her love of all things beauty started at Crones Drugs Store while canvassing the aisles with a Glamour magazine in hand at 10 years old). Julie believes Binghamton's own local legend, Rod Serling, said it best. "Everyone has to have a hometown, Binghamton's mine." Episode Website Please subscribe to "It's a Binghamton Thing"

The present moment is often regarded as our "enemy".  We as humans seem to be treating the present moment as a steppingstone to the next more seemingly important thing, forgetting that the present moment holds the most power.  Shelly and I discuss the importance of practicing this and some tools that help us stay in the moment, so our thoughts don't run away and get the best of us! Thank you for listening.

A brief dive into Crone's drugstores and their founder, Everett "Doc" Crone. This was a place where I would often spend numerous hours browsing the counters and "purchasing" candy or more accurately, charging it to Nelson's account. Ah, the good old days!

Fraternities, sororities, keg parties and general mayhem.  During the early 1980's the two high schools combined and the kids just ran amok.  Mike and I reminisce about this time in our lives and the good times we all had.

Shelly and Julie come together at the beach to talk about the various diets they've experimented with throughout the years. How dieting is a way of life rather than a quick fix.  The relationship with food shouldn't be obsessive but rather a healthy and balanced approached.
Also, quick bite on what is in Shelly's skin care "bag".
