Millennial: Pretend Adulting, Real Talk

Our Father, Who Art in Avocado

Listen Later
  • Welcome to #Millennial, the home of pretend adulting and our TENTH YEAR of real talk!
  • What could have possibly happened in the two weeks we were off air? The panel recounts, and pays special tribute to the dearly departed creator of avocado toast.
  • We have to kick off 2024 with another round of 'New Year, New Laws.' What progress (or regress) will our union see this year?
  • Laura might have ruined indoor vaping for Pat by scaring Andrew with some info from the American Heart Association. Sorry Pat!!
  • Illinois and California are taking steps to combat censorship and discrimination, while North Carolina and Montana are trying to stop teenagers from accessing porn. Pornhub says "good luck with that!"
  • Nevada has given Laura another reason to prioritize a trip to see Andrew in 2024.
  • Will Georgia's state income tax reductions come at the expense of higher costs elsewhere?
  • More than 20 states will raise minimum wages for workers which is great and all, but people are still battling inflation!
  • The Steamboat Willie version of Mickey Mouse has entered the public domain, so get ready for creators to leverage this iconic version of the Mouse.
  • New laws from abroad: England and Wales' ban on XL Bully breed, NZ makes a far-right pivot, and more!
  • Start the new year right: Watch 'Leave the World Behind' on Netflix (Laura), 'The Artful Dodger' on Hulu (Pam), and use Waze when driving for the police alerts (Andrew).


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

    • Is Mr. Brightside by The Killers the anthem of the millennial generation?
    • The millennial experience we love sing shouting about in bars: desperately wanting something we can't have.
    • We age ourselves by reflecting on other possible millennial anthems, many of which are 20+ years old!
