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.

And in this week's After Dark, available on Patreon: We're unpacking how Gen Z and Millennials are revitalizing the cruise industry and why “mini cruises” might be the new go-to budget getaway.

    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 It’s election season (again), and we've got the scoop on what’s at stake, from Georgia’s high-stakes Public Service Commission races to California’s bold Prop 50 redistricting move. Meanwhile, SNAP benefits hang in the balance and Open Enrollment looms, making November a month where politics and real life collide. It's rough out here, y'all. Then, Andrew leads us into the world of gaming, where a new generation of players say video games are boosting problem-solving, friendships, and even mental health. We dig into whether those claims hold up, share our own gaming habits, and hear from listeners about the titles that have them hooked (from Hades 2 to Powerwash Simulator 2). As always, we've got the best recommendations on deck: The Aura Frame (Andrew), Blue Prince (Laura), and checking out your local Library of Things (Pam). And in this week’s After Dark: Pam makes the case for ranking your friends. Is it helpful self-awareness or emotional chaos?

    Jane Goodall Is Spilling the Tea Post-Mortem

    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, Jane Goodall has her Final Interview on Netflix, and we talk about this new series that's going to be super compelling has time moves on. Then, we’re checking back in on the world of AI and how it’s transforming classrooms (for better or worse). Is AI just the latest boogeyman for academic dishonesty, or are there ways it can actually be beneficial for students and teachers? Some educators are saving time on admin tasks and lesson planning, and even see a future where AI can serve as a tutor for students. But not everyone’s convinced it’s a good thing. Who remembers written exams in blue books? Some teachers are going old-school with testing  to combat students cheating on their work with AI. We also hear directly from educators across the country about how AI is changing their classrooms. Some see it as a creative tool, others as a crutch that risks dulling students’ critical thinking. Are schools ready for this shift? Per usual, we came prepared with our latest recommendations: Screw Chrome, switch to DuckDuckGo (Andrew), look at perfume sampler kits for an affordable way to find your new fragrance (Laura), and a reminder that it's vax season and time to get your updated flu and covid shots! (Pam) And in this week's After Dark, we're declaring our midlife crises. What's in the Millennial Midlife Crisis Starter Pack™ for our subscribers? And we need to know if Botox qualifies as a midlife crisis, or just self-care. Asking for a friend. 👀 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    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’re cashing our imaginary $51 Amazon class-action checks and debating what ridiculous Prime purchase we’d blow it on. Meanwhile in D.C., Trump flirts with yet another government shutdown (spoiler: it shut down) and calls in his army of “yes men” while real federal workers brace for furloughs (or worse). We’re also breaking down what tariffs on lumber and furniture could mean for your next splurge, and why sometimes, splurging is exactly what your budget needs. From “buy it for life” items to guilty pleasures that bring us joy, we’re asking: when is it worth spending big in an uncertain economy? Per usual, we've got recommendations handy: Hydration backpacks (Andrew), Netflix's 'Umbrella Academy' (Laura), and Orly in a snap quick dry top-coat formula (Pam). And this week's installment of After Dark has TOO MUCH TEA to plug in front of the paywall. Let's just say it's a new edition of MuggleSuck... Learn more about your ad choices.
