Do You Remember School Dances? 💃 | Summer Series Ep 1

Welcome to Summer Series Episode 1 of The Midlifers Podcast - a shorter, nostalgic summer special where we deep dive into just one topic while we’re on our break.

This week, we’re asking: Do you remember school dances?
From primary school bush dancing and heel-and-toe routines, to Grade 6 graduation dances, awkward high school formals, Blue Light Discos and underage club nights — we’re reliving all the cringe, laughs and memories.

We chat about:
💃 Aussie school bush dances and ballroom dancing
📀 Grade 6 dances and first crush heartbreaks
👗 High school formals, Debs and borrowed dresses
💄 Minimal makeup vs today’s glam standards
🕺 Blue Light Discos, headbanging and drooling incidents
😅 Why school dances were equal parts exciting and traumatic

It’s funny, honest and deeply nostalgic — especially if you grew up in Australia in the 80s and 90s.

☀️ Summer Series episodes are shorter than our usual full-length episodes.
