Before sibling duo Vanessa Bayer and Jonah Bayer took the comedy, music and general world by storm, they were just some lil weirdo kids. Joined by exciting guests who also started out this way, they reminisce about everything from toys to trends on How Did We Get Weird? Unless you’re a monster, you’ll want to listen to this nostalgia-filled, hilarious and surprisingly sweet podcast where they discuss how those formative years that shaped them into who they are today.

episode 12: Remember the dELia*s Catalog? (with Emily Heller)
Whether you're a fashionista or a dELIa*s-ista, we've got something for you on this nineties-fashion-forward episode of the podcast thanks to our guest, writer/comedian Emily Heller. Emily comes by the pod to discuss the time 11-year-old Emily wrote a complaint letter to then-president Bill Clinton about her gym teacher who she later found out was actually Zendaya's dad? We also discuss how she made a zine out of some of her childhood momentos (including the infamous letter) and how New Moon magazine inspired her as a kid. Plus, we dig deep into the cultural impact of the dELIa*s catalog and how it's style impacted pop-culture. And speaking of style, Jonah comes clean about his Girbaud Jeans-phase and Emily discusses her parents' confusion about the nineties thrift-store aesthetic. Finally we play an unforgettable game of YES/NO-STALGIA where we discuss the return of wearing vests as shirts, slip dresses and the incredibly polarizing bucket hat. So put on your chicest ill-fitting hat and check it out!
