🎓 Cooler Conversations Presents: Western Alamance High School – Class of 2010

Fifteen years after graduation, Tyler Smiley reconnects with his classmates to reflect on high school, explore where life has taken them, and consider how technology, culture, and experience have reshaped the dreams they once held. It’s a reunion—mic’d up and meaningful.

Today’s guess is Kaley Barrinea who was voted “Most Involved” as well as our WAHS Class of 2010 Valedictorian.

As a preface, this episode is apart of a initiation series I have been working on. To record the conversations I have with the people who have been the most encouraging to me to start the podcast again.
In this recording, Andy and I discuss a multitude of topics that include time management, adult athletics, and even Star Wars.
This episode was recorded back in November 2023. Hence the dated references Andy and I make in our conversation.
