The Aftergrad Podcast

The transition from high school to college can be incredibly uncomfortable. And still, the transition from college to the real world is abrupt, discombobulating, and not talked about nearly enough. Twentysomethings, best friends, and recent graduates Robert Cain ‘21 and Victoria Gilbert ‘21 finished school in the middle of a global pandemic overly burdened by economic uncertainty and a discouraging job market. In response to these challenges, the creative duo shares personal anecdotes and lessons learned as they live, laugh, and desperately search for clarity and security in the postgrad moment. They discuss the societal expectations that frustrate them and the useful wisdom that aligns them, informing students, professionals, and leaders in a lighthearted manner. theaftergradpodcast.substack.com
