Convince Me I Care
A podcast that explores the absurdities of the modern world through a series of generation-gap rhetorical dares. Ever wonder why, exactly, the Kids are up to that thing these days? Or what the hell the Olds were thinking when they created the world they’ve left us all to inherit? Convince Me I Care aims to explain the inexplicable by forcing our arbitrary representatives of each generation to account for themselves and their contemporaries. In each episode, we’ll dive into some strange facet of generational culture and try to convince each other that it does, in fact, matter. Join us as we attempt to parse the fads, foibles, fears, and fandoms of the recent past.

Fancy Awards Shows
In our inaugural episode, we tackle a seasonal affliction that Grace considers an outdated relic, the Fancy Awards Show. While the Oscars were last month, the seemingly endless parade of glitzy galas pimping out gold-plated statuettes continues throughout the spring. Can David convince Grace that these overstuffed, overlong, and overhyped pageants are worthy of anything besides our derision? Tune in to find out!
Grace Todd and David Timberline are your tour guides through this ongoing investigation of cultural artifacts from our collective recent past with a unique intergenerational spin. We're convinced you'll have a great time listening to Convince Me I Care.
