À propos de cet audio

Millennial podcast is a weekly roundtable about our Generation Y experience. From news to politics and pop culture, a panel of friends digs in on why these stories matter and how they affect millennials. If you’ve ever wondered how to maneuver student loan debt, voting, relationships, careers, or just life in general, we feel that SO. HARD. And we’re here to share our stories, along with our greatest challenges and wins, along the way. Millennial podcast is about journeying through young adulthood together.Millennial Politique Sciences sociales

  • The Left Mishandles J.K. Rowling, Phones at Concerts, Big Beautiful Bill Impacts

From SNAP changes and new work requirements to the temporary "no tax on tips and OT" provision (yes, there’s a cap and it won’t hit your wallet until tax season), we lay out what starts now, what kicks in later, and what quietly sunsets by 2028. But when we're not thinking about healthcare, we're thinking about the things we can do to keep ourselves sane, like going to concerts! Sabrina Carpenter got some attention recently for her thoughts about banning phones at concerts. Could this be the future of live music? We’re not so sure. And Andrew unpacks a viral story about a San Francisco bookstore pulling Harry Potter from its shelves over JK Rowling being, you know, shitty. Is this an extension of the banned books movement—or something else entirely? And in this week's installment of After Dark: Andrew overcame his fear and did something his past self would have n.e.v.e.r done! What do to about neighbors who don't take responsibility for shared property? We all have some personal gripes about neighbors - is Laura weird for not welcoming new neighbors when they move in?

  • We Put a Curse on You (For $100 Via an Etsy Witch)
    Jul 2 2025
    Support #Millennial! Pledge on Patreon and receive lots of perks: https://patreon.com/millennial Visit our merch store: https://shop.millennialshow.com Watch episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@millennialpodcast We kick off this week's show with updates about the GOP Big Beautiful Bullshit bill being passed in the Senate, and why we all need to be calling our House Representatives NOW. Plus a delicious recession indicator. Our main story is about the surge of new online trends and what they say about us: Etsy Witches, buy the bride/grad a drink, and AI generated historical POV videos. We debate the reasons each of these trends are soaring (and why people are spending a lot of money on them). Is it tacky to advertise your bachelorette trip and venmo QR code for cash from strangers? What guardrails need to be in place for AI generated historical "video" content, and are we about to get cursed by the Etsy Witches?! And in this week's installment of After Dark: A Gemini, a Cancer, and a Sagittarius decide to start a podcast... We look to astrology to see if it's able to accurately describe our friendship and work together on the pod. Be gentle, our star charts are making us self-conscious...

  • Are People Getting Crazier? Society's Worst Public Habits Revealed
    Jun 18 2025
    Support #Millennial! Pledge on Patreon and receive lots of perks: https://patreon.com/millennial Visit our merch store: https://shop.millennialshow.com Watch episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@millennialpodcast This week, we kick things off with a new segment, Insane Recession Indicators: HVAC companies running panic sales ahead of tariffs(?) Sara Lee selling half-loaves of bread, and Vegas casinos offering locals wild perks we haven’t seen in years (free parking? we don't know her). Oh, and the U.S. maybe getting involved in a military conflict with Iran. No biggie, right...? Then... do you think you know how to behave in public? The conversation about how social behaviors are evolving continues, and this week we're pondering whether people are ruder since COVID. Are people actually getting ruder, or are we just filming it more? We break down top public pet peeves, from blasting music to smoking in public, and share what we think belongs on the list. Spoiler: not picking up your dog’s poop is still a top-tier offense. Recs this week:🎭 Andrew – The Rehearsal S2 on HBO Max👑 Laura – Blue Prince available on Steam🧼 Pam – Lume deodorant After Dark for Patrons + Apple Podcast subscribers: Andrew has unearthed a particularly shitty interaction with our OG "boss" from 2007, so you know a dramatic reading is in order. Then we talk about the awkwardness involved with lending/borrowing money. What is the right social etiquette, and we share our own stories where we learned this lesson the hard way.
