Support #Millennial!

Real talk… people are tired. In fact, 37% of Americans say they’ve taken vacation days just to rest (and honestly, same). Andrew’s finally acting like a grown-up and getting his blood work done (shoutout to Function Health for making it surprisingly fascinating). Then, we dive into TikTok’s newest productivity trend inspired by the gaming community: “Locking In.” From work and school to personal goals, Gen Z’s challenge to hyper-focus through the end of the year might just be the motivation we need. Plus, we’re bringing back one of our favorite traditions: this year’s physical gift for BAE Patrons and higher: a handwritten “Dear PAL” letter from the three of us, complete with a surprise digital perk to help you chill. Join the BAE level by Friday, November 7 and submit your order by November 14 to get yours at Patreon.com/Millennial. We also share our favorite productivity hacks from listeners and reveal what actually helps us lock in.

Per usual, we've got our top recommendations lined up for y'all: Function Health (Andrew), walking pads (Laura), and the Erin Condren Life Planner (Pam).

This week's After Dark is a casual installment where we ask our Discord community to tell us what to talk about. It shouldn't be a surprise that it turned into an impromptu MuggleSuck segment. Oops!
