About Growing Up Up North

Welcome to Growing Up Up North, the podcast created and produced by two mates from the North of England! Each week, we dive into a new topic that captures the essence of growing up in the 90s and teenage life in the early 00s. Join us as we reminisce about the way life was when you had to rank your friends on MySpace and MSN was the Tiktok of it's time! Growing Up Up North is a fun trip down memory lane, perfect for young millennials wanting to reflect on the past, while also offering a charming insight for the younger generation into what life was truly like before smartphones took over!
