Growing Up in Granite City — And the Night My Friend Got Arrested | Ep #5

In this Episode

I went back to my hometown of Granite City, Illinois, and figured there was no better place to record Episode 5 than right where a lot of these stories actually happened.

This time I’m digging into some memories from growing up and being a teenager in Granite City—including the night one of my friends got arrested. Because apparently nothing says teenage nostalgia quite like somebody ending up in the back of a police car.

It’s a trip back to where I grew up, the shit we did as teenagers, the friends I did it with, and some stories that probably seemed completely normal at the time.

They weren’t.
