A few years ago, our buddy Todd texted us a picture of something that I hadn’t even thought of in 25 years.  It was the picture of a t-shirt, a ratty t-shirt.  The front of the shirt had the words written, "Phebus and Butthead", and the back had the words, “Stroke It” along with a cartoon depiction of the iconic cartoon character Butthead (of the duo, Beavis and Butthead) and our principal at Adams High School, Mr. Phebus, with his arm over Butthead’s shoulder. OBVIOUSLY, THIS SHIRT HAS A STORY. A STORY THAT SIMPLY CANNOT BE MADE UP.  

That was the first time that I’d laid eyes on that shirt in 25 years and instantly I tried to remember everything surrounding the creation of the shirt.  I knew it had something to do with a large group of students in our class, the Class of 96,  being complete idiots, acting a fool, mostly during pep assemblies. But it also had to do with us acting a fool in response to the school’s administration, led by the principal Mr. Phebus, trying to crack down on the pep assembly fun.  

But, the memories were a bit hazy so I knew it was the perfect topic to do some episodes on and truly go on a memory mission.  So I met with eleven friends and even a little surprise guest that really helped provide some perspective of this period in time.  

What you’ll hear over the next three episodes, are the events leading up to the creation of the Phebus and Butthead tshirt, starting with our impressions of our first pep rally, ending with a little rebellion, and all the shenanigans in between.
