THE PRIMROSE CHRONICLES

By: Marty Young
  • Summary

  • A nostalgic look back into a magical time & neighborhood - Primrose Ave, 1950’s & 60’s through the recalling of the many experiences of the eldest child of one family, the Young’s, 4425 Primrose, Indianapolis Indiana.
    If you want a break from the harsh realities of 21st century life, and desire a fanciful excursion into a simpler time;
    if you're seeking a reason to smile and perhaps nod in appreciative agreement about "the good ol' days”, you might find a landing place here.
    Give us a listen and see if you can stop with just one episode, but rather find yourself "hooked" on the peeks you'll get into a time long past but regularly yearned for.
    Welcome to THE PRIMROSE CHRONICLES!!

    Episode 305 of The Primrose Chronicles introduces a new component to its story library - the first of several occasional tellings about “Things Only Baby Boomers Remember”.
    It’s a long way from today’s Smart Phones to Rotary Dial desk sets and land lines of yesteryear, including activities long past for placing and receiving calls.
    With a smile, those long past experiences are recalled with the explanation and clarification necessary for the understanding of Gen Z, Millennials and even some Gen Xers in the listening audience.
    Enjoy!!!

    Episode 304 of The Primrose Chronicles has finally dropped, with a tale about 1950’s & 60’s teen dances & the brutal hesitance of gangly, awkward and self-conscious boys to learn the seemingly dance du jour,
    At least for one teen, it was a harrowing but necessary ordeal.
    As you listen, I hope you find it humorous and just a bit memorable as well.
    In any case, enjoy.
    It was a long time coming!!!

    Blessings!!

    A favorite TPC Episode of season two was the “Characters of the Chronicles” interview with Bob Basler, author of the online literary work, 5 AM Stories.
    He was one of The Chronicles creator& host’s closest childhood buddies from the Ol’ Neighborhood & is now a good friend after reconnecting over the last several years.
    When he first joined the TPC mike back in May of 2023, his entertaining weekly post had just launched to a small but appreciative readership and our back & forth was memorable and great fun.
    TPC Episode 303 catches up with Bob after 70+ posts with over 60,000 downloads, easily found by googling “5am Stories” or going straight to the website , robertbasler.substack.com
    But with this TPC Show you’ll hear from Bob off the cuff, guided, often unsuccessfully by the host.
    Again the conversation is lively & at times a bit off center, reflected by the variety & scope of topics that arise and the subsequent observations voiced.
    It’s a most enjoyable & entertaining listen.
