It Only Hurts When I Talk: Gen-X Aging Disgracefully episodes

  • Signs of Adulthood
    Two very different opinions on the state of youth-to-adult progress and the blockers in today's society. What makes you an adult? Moving out? Paying off student loans? Buying a house? Getting married? Is it fair to say it's a different measurement now than when we were young, and whose fault is that?

  • Not Caring
    Are we emboldened into not giving a f*&$ or just complacent? Strategically tolerating insanity or beaten down and unable to get back up? What is your enough-is-enough tipping point?

  • Half Baked
    Everything thinks they're an expert in something. But when you rely on someone or something with a ton of depth, does their lack of breadth cause an issue? At what point does expertise and specificity become a problem?

  • Three Complaints and a Joystick
    We were the original gamers. We also can't remember which way is up. I blame Yar's Revenge.

  • The Grim Spectre of Death
    This isn't about regrets, but it is about that feeling of what we'll miss once life moves on without us. Grandkids, flying cars, world peace, people finally learning to park between the lines. Will these things happen in time? Definitely not that last one.

  • Kids in Basements
    Gregg understands that young adults face different challenges and timelines than we did at their age. James thinks they should grow a pair. What happens when these two brothers-in-law stop being polite and start getting real?

  • What is your Love Language?

    So....we got things a bit out of order, as you can tell when this starts with talk about snow. Oops.


    In our timeline it was just Valentine's Day! Never mind lingerie, chocolate, and flowers, what is your love language? Could it be a crossword puzzle or a well-organized bathroom? Also, Gregg has an alternative explanation of PDA in the older population.

  • Tipping Culture
    We start with some napping talk, and then complain about - or try to explain? - tipping culture. As usual, Gregg blames Covid. Also, buffalo turkey legs.

  • AI-aye-aye
    This week we jump on the AI bandwagon. We have both been using it since the beginning, in different ways, but today is about the arts and how creativity is impacted.
