This One Time At Summer Camp

Summer Camp is Cancelled!

Sun, 01 Dec 2024 09:53:01 GMT

Pete and Nick discuss an news article on summer camp. Please also enjoy the AI generated description for "cancelling summer camp".

Welcome to another episode of "This One Time At Summer Camp", the podcast where we tackle the latest disaster in the world of childhood nostalgia: summer camps are being cancelled. That’s right, folks—no more bunk beds, no more s’mores, and forget about that canoe ride you totally didn’t fall out of. In this episode, we’ll explore how a bunch of overprotective adults decided that climbing trees and learning how to tie knots are too dangerous for today’s kids. So grab your imaginary campfire marshmallow and settle in as we roast the idea of canceling summer camp—and maybe even a few liberal tears while we’re at it!

Camp Pock-a-Wocknee and the DYN-O-MITE Summer of '77 with Eric Glickman

Thu, 15 Jun 2023 06:00:29 GMT

We talk to the amazing author Eric Glickman about his summer camp adventures as a youth that inspired him to create the epic tale of Camp Pock-a-Wocknee and the DYN-O-MITE Summer of '77. An epic 300 page graphic novel describing summer camps of the time with all that summer camp nostalgia you love to reminisce about.

You can find Eric's book here:

https://books2read.com/cpaw

Camp Pock-a-Wocknee & the DYN-O-MITE Summer of ‘77 is a coming-of-age graphic novel celebrating the traditions, friendships, and idiocy that make up summers at Jewish sleepaway camp. Combining the nostalgic mood of The Wonder Years, the raucousness of Superbad, and the adolescent angst of Pen15, this 300-page graphic novel juxtaposes classic, black and white, comic strip art with an R-rated story to capture the tension created when the innocence of childhood crashes into the messiness of adolescence.
