Millennial: Pretend Adulting, Real Talk

Forget Boomer Complaints - Here're Our Biggest Millennial Complaints

Listen Later
  • Welcome to #Millennial, the home of pretend adulting and real talk!
  • We're keeping an eye on Trump's first 100 days and giving bite-sized updates at the top of episodes.
  • Should we apply to the White House's New Media program? Maybe we're not the voices they want to feature...
  • Forget about boomer complaints - inspired by this tweet, we want to know what your millennial complaints are!
  • Are millennials starting to become grumpy old people about Gen Z? We get it, you're youthful and full of life and ambition because the world hasn't broken you yet. STOP SHOWING OFF!
  • A common millennial complaint amongst our panel and listeners is missing the early days of the internet, when it was weirder and more fun.
  • Housing costs, student loans, and lacking friends who are also parents definitely make the list.
  • We yearn for the comforts of the early 2000s (but leave the fashion in 2005 pls): longer TV seasons, being able to physically buy software, and all the random videos that became generational memes for millennials.
  • As always, we leave you with our recommendations: An album and artist rec from Pam, 'Tinsley' by Tinsley, The Sims 1 and 2 re-releases coming to PC soon (Andrew), and Jon Stewarts interview with Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on his podcast.


    • And in this week's installment of After Dark:

    • Jic Republicans force us to have babies, we imagine a world in which we are parents to Gen Beta children. What would we do differently than what our parents did? What would we do the same?
    • For real though, we can barely take care of ourselves, so do you really trust our judgment?
    • How would we manage raising kids at a time when children seem to have smart devices in hand from birth?
