124 Nostalia

Kimberly and Cara pull the word "nostalgia" and follow it from Inside Out 2's nostalgia character into analog childhoods: aluminum foil antennas, dial knobs, five channels, and the test pattern bars that meant you'd stayed up way too late. Along the way, Kimberly reveals how she became a cheerleader (her brother played football and she needed something to do), and Cara breaks down why One Piece has the best moral framework on television.

The "Is It Just Me?" segment takes a turn when Kimberly shares her jury duty experience, sitting in deliberation, knowing that the charge hinged on one cop's memory with no body cam footage, and realizing she couldn't bring up the science of faulty memory without sounding like she was calling the officer a liar.

"What a privilege to wander through the world and believe that what your perception of reality is reality." Cara's response connects the whole episode back to why neurospicy brains have been living this truth their entire lives.
