The Year 2000 | The Kids Are In Bed Ep. 14

/ Tim Severson / Leave a comment

The year 2000 was the beginning of a new millennium and our first full year together as a couple.

This week on The Kids Are In Bed, Tim and Jenni talk about their recent trip to a Minnesota Twins game in the midst of their winning streak and the Timberwolves’ hot start in the playoffs. There is nothing Minnesotans love more than a winning team. They move on to the year 2000 and discuss the music that topped the charts (Eminem, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Papa Roach, Blink-182, and more!) and the movies that crushed the box office (Gladiator, Coyote Ugly, Almost Famous, and more!). Tim can’t share Jenni’s enthusiasm about the new Max Harry Potter series that has been announced to Jenni’s chagrin. Tim does his best to comb through Jenni’s memory for… anything! Will he be successful, or will we be astonished by Jenni’s lack of recall? The only way to find out is by listening. Thanks for being here.

1999, The Count Down Begins | The Kids Are In Bed Ep. 13

/ Tim Severson / Leave a comment

The Kids Are In Bed countdown to 25 years of Tim and Jenni has begun. They started dating on October 8 (Tim’s birthday), 1999, and from now until then, they will be recapping every year and talking about their memories from 1999 to 2024. 1999 brought the end of a century and it ended with a bang. It’s the beginning of the golden age of TV with The Sopranos first season. Teen movies made a comeback with the likes of: Election, Varsity Blues, 10 Things I Hate About You, Cruel Intentions, American Pie, and She’s All That. Napster allowed kids to illegally download all the hits from ‘NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, TLC, and, of course, Smash Mouth. It all ended with unfounded Y2K hysteria.

Tim and Jenni talk about getting to know each other via ICQ and share some stories from the first months of their relationship while Jenni tries to conjure a single memory from the year 1999.

Join Tim and Jenni this week (and every week) as they stroll down memory lane. Well, Tim will anyway, and Jenni will do her best to bring a memory or two. Thanks for being here, thanks for listening, and thanks for being awesome. Cheers!

Tim and Jenni discuss their close encounter in their hot tub. They then try to figure out what dinosaurs actually looked like. Jenni believes she has discovered her answer to the question – what are your hobbies? Her answer? Brunch. Pour yourself a mimosa and join them for some fun.

Tim made a big mistake and shaved his beard. Jenni and Tim discuss the family’s reaction to this extreme change. They also discuss their weekend getting rid of junk, day drinking, and watching The Masters. They finish things off by diving into their memories (or lack thereof) of infomercials. We’re glad you’re here to laugh with us.
