Name: Episode 15: Prom and the Stanford Marshmallow Experiment by The Anthropocene Reviewed
Duration: 19 min 22 s
Description: John Green reviews the teenage celebration known as prom and the Stanford Marshmallow Experiment.

My own prom experience involved neither alcohol nor the losing of virginity. The theme was Barry Manilow’s “Looks Like We Made It,” which sounds appropriate for a bunch of seniors about to graduate, but is in fact a song about a couple who have broken up. My date and I did indeed play at being adults. After the dance we drove from Des Moines to Kansas City, where we spent the night fairly chastely in spite of the temptation to do otherwise. Just a few months later, we were at separate colleges. Our best attempts to maintain a long-distance relationship failed. But now, many years later, I guess I can say, “Looks like we made it.”

people who always correct pronounciation, also annoy me!

hmmmmm John Green's voice, my favourite version of an North American accent, (Barack Obama's voice is second)

This is the best company for rainy days, thank you!
