Doree Shafrir & Elise Hu

Which night creams will make you look well-rested, is quitting coffee really worth the headache, can emptying your closet really bring you joy, and wtf is a gratitude practice, anyway? Co-hosts Doree Shafrir and Elise Hu explore these kinds of questions, with a big helping of humor and self-awareness. Together with weekly guests, they navigate what it means to care for ourselves as we get older — and hopefully wiser.

    [You’re listening to a preview of this month’s Product Recall, available exclusively on our Patreon. To hear the full episode, join us at patreon.com/forever35.] On this episode of Product Recall we time-travel back to the fall of 1994. Bill Clinton is President, grunge is peaking, America is reeling from the AIDS epidemic, and R.E.M. and Boyz II Men are at the top of the charts. In the middle of it all is CKOne: the zeitgeist-capturing, overpowering, unisex fragrance that represented the counterculture attitude of the decade. In this month’s Product Recall, Kate and Doree explore CKOne’s historical relevance, Calvin Klein’s eye for controversial advertising, and the scent’s cringe-worthy attempt at a comeback.
