About this episode
The episode discusses the unique challenges and experiences of Millennials, reflecting on their upbringing and current societal pressures.
This week is all about Millennials. In this returning guest episode with Brooke, we’re talking dial-up internet, mall food courts, AIM away messages, Tamagotchis, Blockbuster nights, student loan debt, hustle culture, social media comparison, delayed milestones, and whether adulthood was alwaysthis confusing… or if the rules just kept changing on us. From VHS tapes to smartphones, from 9/11 to the 2008 recession to digital burnout, we break down what it actually feels like to be a millennial today. Are we uniquely burdened — or just really good at adapting? Let’s discuss. This episode is sponsored by Plonk Wines . Visit their website and use code NEWMEMBER for $10 off your first order.
