    Episode 19 - SOLO - 90’s Nostalgia Trend

    I will never stop banging on about how good the 80, 90s and 00’s were BUT in particular the 90s! There I said it! I'm a proud millennial, maybe even an elder millennial really as I'm an 82 vintage and the starting point is 1981!

    This episode I go on to discuss and have a chat with you all about my thoughts on the 90’s Nostalgia Trend, yes the one with the Goo Goo dolls song Iris in the background. Its not even just that…I've been harping on for the past 2 years at least about how I miss the “good ol days”.

    Today’s chat is about that. Plain and simple!


    ✨ What I talk about:

    • 90s and how good they were!
    • A simpler time and why I think everyone is loving the trend right now.
    • Asking for you to send me a DM about what you loved about the 90's too!
