While much of the world was focused on high-stakes athletic and political competitions in September 1988, a couple of young outsiders made a connection in their new town of Stoneybrook. Brooke and Kaykay dive into the growing anti-ableism movement that set the backdrop for Jessi's Secret Language, including the Deaf President Now student protest at Gallaudet University and the emergence of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Plus: digressions on Muppet musicians, gay food analogies, and the most hideous of all 80s hair trends.
