The Besties take you on a journey back to a cherished time in their lives when they were children being doted on by their grandparents. Leslie grew up in Brooklyn in a brownstone where up to five generations lived at one time whereas Angella recalls fond early years in Jamaica being loved and cared for by her grandparents. This is a nostalgic episode full of funny memories, family dynamics and the budding cultural awareness of the 60s. They even share stories about how they each were introduced to coffee.
Angella and Leslie transition to exploring the legacies that they may be leaving for future generations and how they might want to be remembered. They conclude that as they themselves become elders they acknowledge their obligation to impart information, guidance, and pass on traditions to their families.
