We all have a GenX Story. What’s yours?
Listen on –
Love, GenX Style: Let's Get it On
his week the gang gets way personal (with the help of our outspoken Facebook happy hour crew) and digs deep into the truth about love, marriage, divorce, long distance relationships and SO much more.
We Can't Drive 55
Catch a ride with us as we remember when we had the wind in our hair, slid across bench seats and cruised around with our best friends, blasting 80s tunes out of the sunroof.
We Will Rock You: Our Fave Concerts
The gang is back this week to talk all about our first concerts, missed musical opportunities and flat out not remembering the biggest show of our lifetime, LiveAid (Guess who that was?).
The Agony of Defeat: GenX & Sports
Cheer us on from the sidelines as we share both our athletic triumphs and defeats along with memorable sporting events and mishaps (Nancy Kerrigan anyone?)
But it’s totally true. Right?
On today’s episode, the GenX Stories gang starts season 3 digging into all our favorite urban myths. Where did they come from? How did we find out ? And why did we believe them?
BONUS: Our Afterschool Special (with snacks)
New episodes may be on mini-hiatus til season 3 drops on July 14, but today’s bonus episode is full of goodies that will make even the most sarcastic GenXer smirk.
If you build it, they will listen
Wanna go behind the scenes with the GenX Stories gang? As we wrap up season 2, we share what surprised us about this crazy podcast process, things we’re excited about in Season 3 and what members of our Facebook community really think about it all.
Planes, Trains & Automobiles
Remember the summer vacations of your youth? Have no fear - we do! This week the GenX Stories gang reminisces about our first experiences traveling with family, to the adventures we had as young adults up until our recent and upcoming travel plans.
Prom, Pranks & Graduation (Oh My)
As 2021’s high school class approaches their end of year events, you know the GenX Stories gang had to relive our own. But here’s the big question: who loved these rites of passage from the 80’s and who was all “whatever” about them?
Games GenXers Play
Get ready to solve your Rubik's Cube while you hear all about the games & toys we loved back then, which ones are still around today, and how we are managing the new bells and whistles that the latest generation seems to need. (Hint: Remove the batteries)
Epic Movie Soundtracks
This week the gang waxes nostalgic about the movie soundtracks that scored our youth. And our midlife. And everything in-between.
Cancel This: GenX to The Rescue?
Irony is rich as the podcast gang takes on GenX being summoned into the latest cancel culture kerfuffle. Seriously - have they met us? From the PC battles of our youth with Tipper Gore and PMRC to the recent “cancellations” of Mr. Potato Head, Dr Seuss and Pepe Le Pew, we have a ton of opinions.
As Seen on TV: The Price of Nostalgia
Between Ginsu knives, the Pepsi challenge, Life Cereal and even the 1984 Apple ad that played only once, GenX has been marketed to our whole lives. Since we’re not captive audiences anymore, has anything changed now that we're in our 50s? Or has our nostalgia become our kryptonite?
Ride or Die: GenX Friendships
This week the GenX Stories gang is talking about all our friendships. The ride or dies, the ones who hide the bodies for us, the ones we'd bail out of jail with no questions, our “outer ring” acquaintances and even social media pals.
Who was right, Harry or Sally?
This Valentines week on GenX Stories, we ask the ultimate question from When Harry Met Sally: can men and women be friends or does sex always get in the way?
Our Must-See TV
Join the crew as we discuss our favorite TV memories growing up, embarrassing on-screen things that may have flown over our heads, why Dick Clark wouldn't give anyone a full donut and what shows we're binge watching these days.
