  • What's on State Ballots in 2024?, Spooky Season Nostalgia
    2024/10/23
    The US election is 2 weeks away, and we spotlight the various constitutional amendments and referendums being voted on at the state level: marijuana legalization, abortion protections, ranked choice voting, and more! We each share what's on our states' ballots, and how we're voting on these amendments! (And Laura reminds you to "look under the hood" on these proposals to better understand how they will actually work.) Why on earth are there bipartisan efforts to kill open primaries and ranked choice voting in Nevada?? It's only taken over a century, but several states are just now considering taking language about slavery out of their constitutions... But onto happier subjects: you know we love nostalgia, so we can't pass up the opportunity to talk about 90's Halloween and Spooky Szn culture! What is our personal relationship to Halloween, and why is Laura so obsessed with murder? We draw a connection between trick-or-treating and Andrew's fondness for snagging strangers' hotel room service leftovers. Did 90s parents inspect our Halloween candy mainly as an excuse to sneak in some sweet treats? Andrew will once again be the most popular house in his neighborhood with full size candy bars, so line up kids! We've got a slew of entertainment recommendations this week! 'Agatha All Along' on Disney+ (Pam), Ali Wong's 'Single Lady' standup special on Netflix (Laura), and Mario Party Jamboree! (Andrew) And in this week's installment of After Dark, available on Patreon and Apple Podcasts: Pam can’t stop thinking about a Whole Foods Cake being emblematic of the state of the economy. Why have so many fast food restaurants rolled back their introductions of alternative meat products? Laura can't enjoy Del Taco anymore! Andrew will be rioting at his local Trader Joe's if they do away with his top favorites, so watch out TJs! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We're joined by special guests and fellow podcasters, Cristina and Dana of ‘The Millennial Body Image Project.’ We kick off our interview by getting to know Cristina, Dana, and the work they do as licensed nutritionists While formally hosts of a nutrition based podcast, the ladies explain to us why they chose to rebrand into a show that solely centers on millennials and body image Why is the millennial generation disproportionately affected by body image issues, and do millennial men and women deal with this issue differently? Our guests reveal the biggest actors that impact negative or positive body image today (spoilers: it’s social media, plus a few other things you’ve likely heard about!) Is it healthy to use Facetune or even TikTok filters to change the way you look? Our panelists’s answers might surprise you! We wrap up the show by asking our expert guests to give us some important advice: how can we best support friends and family who might be dealing with body image issues? Recommendations this week include: stocking up on holiday baking supples before the grocery stores raise the prices on you! (Pam) and get your Krabby Patty on by visiting a Krabby Patty Kollab location near you! (Andrew) And in this week’s installment of After Dark, available on Patreon and Apple Podcasts: Join Andrew and Pam for a mini Millennial sleepover where we’re giggling and gossiping about our past crushes!

  • October Surprises, How Hollywood Takes on Toxic Fandoms
    2024/10/09
    Welcome to #Millennial, the home of pretend adulting and real talk! It's October, so you know what that means in a Presidential Election year - October Surprises! We reflect on previous October surprises in 2020 and 2016 - oh for simpler times... This week's ballot plug goes to.... THE BIG 7: 7 incumbent Senate Democrats really need to hold onto their seats, especially since Joe Manchin (D?-WV) is noping out of Congress. Split a donation between Ruben Gallego (AZ), Elissa Slotkin (MI), Jon Tester (MT), Jacky Rosen (NV), Sherrod Brown (OH), Bob Casey Jr. (PA), Tammy Baldwin (WI) at Swing Left. Are the most prominent voices amongst toxic fandom figures just out for blood? Some in Hollywood think so. Should there be limits on how much production companies are relying on fan input/focus groups? Has fandom toxicity gotten worse over the years due to the internet and social media? We think so. The slippery slope of fans thinking they know better than creators, and burning those creators when they don't match fan visions. Our very own Pam has seen backlash from toxic fans just for reporting the NEWS. This week's recommendations are a mix of altruism and comfort: Donating to support Hurricane Milton relief (Laura), Balatro on mobile (Andrew), and Snag Tights (Pam). And in this week's installment of After Dark, available on Patreon and Apple Podcasts: Come get cozy with us for what may be the most wholesome discussion to ever happen on this show! Ok, be honest - as adults, do we still sleep with stuffed animals? Each of us brings some special cuddly guests to introduce on the show - some have been in our lives since before we can remember!
