Teenagers Through the 50s

Teenagers Through the 50s

In this episode we go deeper from my last episode, about teenager throughout the years. We focus on teenagers in the 1950s, what they did for fun, their hobbies, and how teens have changed since then. I also speak with short story writer Wayne Smith about his experiences as a teenager.
