October 03, 2019Dead Brands
Growing up in the ’70s and ’80s there were brand names that seemed like they would go on forever: Pan Am, Woolworth, A & P. But due to bad management, not keeping up with the changing times, or competition, many have died away leaving only memories. Join us as we venture into the past once again and revisit some of these brands we thought would never die.

September 19, 2019Fraggle Rock
When I first watched Fraggle Rock, I never thought of it as a show depicting four species that are dependant on one another for their survival. I just thought that the Fraggles liked to have fun, Doozers like to work and the Gorgs were…. well Gorgs! Like all great shows, Fraggle Rock worked on different levels. Come join us as we revisit the Fraggles, Doozers, Gorgs and Silly Creatures in this Backtrack episode!

In this week’s episode, Jon lords his new retro lunchbox over us, Mo is disappointed about a movie he was looking forward to, and George rants on how Amazon doesn’t know the meaning of the words, “Coming Soon!” All this plus our usual assortment of tech toys, media, and games.

September 05, 2019Lunch Boxes
Sadly, not all of us were able to participate in the joy of owning lunch boxes. Some were not able to show all their friends which TV shows they liked, which cartoons were the coolest, or use that awesome thermos. But at least two of the hosts of GenXGrownUp were part of that lucky group! Come join us as we talk about what made lunch boxes such a status symbol.

August 29, 2019Parsec, Good Boys, & Darq
While many of those other wimpy podcasts are doing re-broadcasts or “best of” episodes, GenXGrownUp is still providing new content every week! Take that, “Wait, Wait Don’t Tell Me!”

This week, Jon finds a way to beat us at 2-person video games remotely, George gets a $30,000 tech gadget, and Mo finds a cool new side scroller. All that plus more of our usual content and arguing!

August 22, 2019Remembering Pluto
In 1930, a ninth planet was added to the list of planets in our solar system. Then in 2006, it was removed and reclassified as a “dwarf planet.” For some of the folks who grew up in the 1970s and 1980s, this was sacrilege! Join us for this Backtrack as we have a heated discussion about Pluto and its place in our solar system.
