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

    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.

  • The Unwritten Rules of Modern Social Favors

    The Unwritten Rules of Modern Social Favors
    Jun 11 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're pouring one out for the Musk/Trump love affair. Yes, Laura was wrong about how that would play out -- but the real drama is unfolding in LA, where the Trump administration is intentionally fueling the fire to justify military overreach. Then we dive into summer movie madness: AMC is adding even more trailers and commercials, so how are we supposed to know when to show up?? Plus, Pam leads a thoughtful convo on transactional friendships and the unwritten rules of modern social favors—like driving a friend to the airport or staying at their place. Are we keeping score, or is it just love? Per usual, we have recommendations on tap for y'all: Nintendo Switch 2 if you've been on the fence (Andrew), 'Andor' on Disney+ (Laura), and 'Overcompensating' on Amazon Prime (Pam). And in this week's installment of After Dark: We have a bone to pick over a few examples of of people who take advantage of favors but never return them. If staying at a someone's home, should guests make an effort to socialize? And how far is too far to ask a friend to allllways drive? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
