After the shock of the 2024 election, the podcast crew has decided to take a little breather. We want to show up as our most authentic (and snarky) selves, so we’re putting the show on hold for now while we figure out next steps. To all our listeners—you have no idea how much you mean to us. This show has been a lifeline for the four of us through all the ups and downs of the past few years, and we just need some time to reset & regroup.
We hope to be back with new episodes in 2025, but if anything changes, we’ll let you know! In the meantime, come hang out in our Facebook group to stay in the loop and soak up some GenX vibes.
Seeya on the flip side, kids. #loveyou #meanit

Get ready for a blast from the past! This encore Halloween episode, originally released in October 2020 (remember the lockdown Halloween?!) is one of our favorites—and when Lori, Courtney, Chris, and I started to come together as a podcast family.
Join us as we dive into Lori's candy corn obsession, my blue fuzzy dog costume, Courtney's legendary front yard celebrations, and Chris’s hysterical late-night TV pumpkin adventures. Get a taste of Gen X Halloween experiences that are sure to make you laugh your pillowcase right off. But make sure to hide those candy wrappers.
