About this listen
Do all bullies stay bullies? Growing up in 80s Lexington, Massachusetts, I was friends with Tyler Brooks - a kid who could terrorize smaller students one moment and charm parents and teachers the next. Something about him was uniquely Boston-coded.
I figured my unofficial role as a bully's friend was to use my privilege for good. This episode was inspired by one fugue that I’ll never forget - an act of controversial kindness to save a younger kid from a beat down. My approach, while celebrated by my 80s family, would probably be frowned upon by modern standards.
Despite social media tearing apart the fabric of society, it gave me a good opportunity to see if Tyler is still a dick.
