Contrary to popular belief, being a millennial is bloody rough sometimes. And being a creative millennial? Forgeeet about it. We've got more opportunity and resources than any generation before us (except the housing market lolz), yet we're discontent, disconnected and anxious as f. We're spoilt for choice, yet we're paralysed. WHY? Let's discuss, shall we? 🤷🏻‍♀️
As a cute little treat, we also get into some deep reflection on the last three years since we recorded our first episode back in 2019 (my how the world has changed) and give you guys  personal life updates from each of us as well.

You guys loved episode 9 so much, we decided to do a Reddit Reacts Part 2! Once again we delve into the crazy world that is: Reddit. Reacting to some of the wildest true stories we could find from people around the world. Hold on to your hats because some of these take some ridiculous twists and turns...we hope you're ready 😬 The two subreddits we read from in the episode are: 'Am I the Asshole' - a famous thread where people aim to find out if they were wrong in an argument/situation they found themselves in. And 'True Off My Chest' - a place for people to speak their mind and sometimes spill their deepest darkest secrets. 
 
Trigger warnings: 
- Discussion of online child pornography.
- Discussion of infertility.

Forever alone or never alone? That is the question 💀 Today we look at the concept of being in a relationship versus being a single pringle, from the vastly different perspectives of Laura (who's currently in a 12 year relationship) and Alex (who has never been in a long term relationship). We'll be breaking down the history of why humans pair up, monogamy, stats and figures, societal expectations and the pros and cons.

“It takes time to live. Like any work of art, life needs to be thought about.” - Albert Camus. In Episode 6, we tackle the ever lurking beast that is EXISTENTIALISM. This one gets a little heavy, so if you’re not in the right headspace to question your own existence, life meaning or purpose, then give this episode a miss. If you are, good luck and see you on the other side...

Correction from Alex: 
1. I said all crew for international filming projects are from Australia but it might not be all crew. But it’s a lot of crew. 
2. I mentioned “life projects”. It’s actually “death projects”.…and check out Laura’s band ‘The Playbook’: linktr.ee/theplaybook
