In this episode of So What, I’m a Millennial, Craig and Michaelle reunite after a hectic stretch of life to catch up on everything from lingering cruise obsessions and work burnout to the surreal feeling of time flying as they approach their 40s. Their candid, often hilarious conversation dives into aging, perimenopause, and the unfiltered realities of being an adult, balanced with lighter moments like Craig’s experience adopting his new puppy, Manapua, and navigating early pet parenthood. Along the way, they weave in pop culture—from Celine Dion’s return to revisiting Titanic as adults, to sharing thoughts on Justin Bieber at Coachella—making this episode a mix of real talk, nostalgia, and chaotic, relatable millennial energy.

Michaelle and Craig catch up after a big trip covering a Disney Treasure Cruise on the Disney Cruise Line: itinerary highlights, Castaway Cay excursions, the Moana Broadway-style show, bingo wins, spa deals, and practical tips for first-time cruisers (boarding shuttles, fish extenders, packing, MagicBands).

The episode also covers Disney World after-hours, park strategies like rope drop and Lightning Lanes, a quick New York detour that included a blizzard, Broadway rush tickets to see Death Becomes Her, TV studio visits, and celebrity encounters with Andy Cohen and Sherri Shepard.

Overall this is a conversational travel recap full of honest reactions, money-saving tips, and small travel hacks to make the most of theme parks, cruises, and short city stops.

Two hosts catch up for early 2026—celebrating the New Year, sharing a frightening foggy drive, and coping with the recent loss of Kaylie, Craig's beloved dog.

They talk reading habits, small goals, and influencer wins (including a viral kitchen video and K‑beauty PR), plus upcoming travel plans: a cruise, New York studio tickets, and festival/concert wish lists.

Hosts Craig and Mitch trade candid year-end reflections on seasonal burnout, family stress, nostalgia, and pop-culture distractions as they prepare for the holidays.

They riff on divas, theme-park memories, reading habits, travel plans for 2026, and life changes ahead while mixing humor with honest talk about aging, adoption, and self-care.

This week, Craig and Mitch break down Wicked: For Good — a visually stunning return to Oz that still struggles to deliver a memorable second act. They also dive into seasonal pop culture: Shakira’s latest hit, Christina Aguilera’s “Christmas in Paris,” the ongoing reign of Mariah Carey, and Netflix’s major acquisition of Warner Bros. Finally, they put millennial holiday nostalgia to the test with a spirited Christmas Movie This or That.

Michelle and Craig catch up on life—new hair, therapy, sciatica, and pandemic-era laziness—while discussing recent pop culture highlights: a viral Luann Davis moment in Honolulu, live performances and reactions to the Wicked for Good special, Grammy nominations, and new music from Hilary Duff, Katy Perry, and Demi Lovato.

They play a quick millennial music trivia game, share personal updates, plan to see Wicked, and laugh through nostalgic moments, FOMO, and friendship.

Craig and Michaelle catch up on life. Still looping Taylor Swift’s The Life of a Showgirl and Wicked instead of New Music Friday, and now processing Diane Keaton’s passing (and why millennials are taking it so personally). They talk favorite Diane Keaton movies, TikToks breaking down her legacy, and how nostalgia feels heavier these days.

Somewhere between heart monitors, sciatica, and comfort cooking, they dive into feeling behind, finding community, and the search for a “third place." That space between home and work where you actually feel like yourself. 

Craig and Michaelle dive headfirst into Taylor Swift’s The Life of a Showgirl, sharing their first impressions, favorite tracks, and a few skips along the way. Craig can’t stop replaying Opalite, Cancelled, and Actually Romantic, but admits that Eldest Daughter, Father Figure, and Honey aren’t on heavy rotation. The music video gets a full yes from both, and they debate what the next single should be — Craig’s betting on Opalite.

They imagine what this era will look like on tour, predicting that Wood will steal the spotlight on stage. 

To wrap things up, they wade into the Swiftie chaos, ranking the album among Taylor’s discography, weighing in on all the variant releases (marketing genius or just too much?), and sharing whether Showgirl makes them want to revisit her past albums.

In this episode we react to the final Wicked for Good trailer, highlighting new scenes, surprising character moments (like Nessarose floating), hints of expanded Oz lore, and two new songs. We talk casting rumors, soundtrack anticipation, merch, awards buzz, and what to expect when the film releases Nov 21.
