Aging, Adulthood, & Apocalypse

In this week’s episode, Aidan and Aditi explore the innovative film Boyhood (2014), shot over 12 years to authentically capture a boy named Mason's journey from childhood to adulthood. They discuss director Richard Linklater's unique narrative approach and relate it to their own childhood experiences, sharing personal stories and excerpts from Aditi’s childhood diary.

Our hosts discuss aging and adulthood, particularly through the lens of post-college life. They explore how Gen Z's views on "growing up" are shaped by the daunting conditions of modern society, including the looming threat of a climate apocalypse.
