and now lori can really say we re famous if you re an aarp member don t throw away your latest issue check out the article on page 26 entitled 5 podcasts for women in their 50 s we re also in fast company ironically one of our goals for this podcast was to celebrate everyday gen xers who weren t being written about in places like fast company so imagine our surprise when three months ago we were actually approached by a writer for fast company who wanted to tell our generation s story check out the article entitled stuck between boomers and millennials gen x keeps rolling with the punches which quotes our very own creator host executive producer eve simon dig into more news recent episodes featured don t call us queenagers seriously apparently genx women are queenagers now oh hell no this week on the podcast we take a crowbar to the label and everything behind it corporate age discrimination tokenism vs diversity hollywood s woman issue how they are dealing with it and the media s habit of discovering women over 50 who ve been here the whole time plus meet our not so new guest co host who you will be hearing a lot more from for the love of pat benatar don t even think of skipping this one read more is this thing still on season eight kickoff since we last saw you a lot has happened aarp published us in their magazine everyone listened to our drunk episode ouch court and chris s kids went off to college lori mastered the lazy river and eve broke some plates creatively of course so what could possibly follow all that in our first episode back 80s trivia with questions from lori and our facebook group duh get your ding ready cause season eight starts right now brace yourself read more hold my beer the drunk episode this week the crew is all here for a completely unscripted barely coherent deeply sincere season 7 wrap up and yes we re getting drunk well maybe not all of us expect the usual but even better meandering tangents unsolicited hot takes deeply felt assertions on stuffed animals and confessions about drunk scooting oh and potential equipment damage pour yourself something tasty press play you know how this goes read more don t call it a hobby creativity in your 50s sn 7 ep 17 creativity peaking in your 50s more than your 20s yup that tracks this episode digs into what that actually looks like and it s got nothing to do with taking a pottery class or learning how to square dance again you know that we rarely do guests on the show but when a fellow gen xer laura lebleu channels her creativity into a gorgeous 90 page three times a year print magazine for us by us we make an exception while we re a little divided on its controversial name geezer we re totally sure of this creativity in every form is a way to kick ass in our second half tune in today or not whatever read more from roswell to rocky genx s alien obsession congratulations you ve found the one podcast episode that finally settles whether extraterrestrial life exists spoiler we don t know either thanks to lori we re talking aliens this week the pop culture kind the cold war paranoia kind and the cops told eve s mom in 58 it was a weather balloon but it was definitely not kind from close encounters to alien to et to project hail mary to things on the moon in roman times we have thoughts new episode stuff to hear you know what to do read more ship happens all aboard the 80s cruise ever wondered what happens when an entire cruise ship full of gen xers decide to relive the greatest decade wonder no more in this week s episode we re taking you aboard the 80s cruise where the fanny packs are unironic the hair is big and the hits just keep coming we re talking live concerts old school heartthrobs neon everything and a crowd that still knows every single word to every single song whether you re a die hard cruise lover or someone who swore they d never set foot on a ship this episode may have you reconsidering your stance fast plus we have a kick ass guest who just came back from her second 80s cruise and is already signed up for her third so is the 80 s cruise totally rad or totally bogus listen now and you can be the judge read more burying more than our feelings the time capsule episode before google drive gen x processed artifacts the way we handled most everything else by burying it and hoping future people would care yup this episode is about time capsules a concept so ironically gen x it practically comes with a side of twinkie and the sense of impending doom from bicentennial school projects we definitely forgot about to nasa flinging a gold record into deep space like here aliens have some chuck berry to nickelodeon s pop culture treasure trove sitting somewhere underground until 2042 get comfy we have a ton to talk about tune in like now read more cover wars is what s old really new again from lorde going full existential on tears for fears to johnny cash making nine inch nails cry to luke combs taking us for a ride it s time for some real genx talk about cover songs this week we re going deep on interpretations of the music we grew up on and duuude we have opinions beacause what do you mean the songs we love were already covers be a fly on the wall as the podcast gang debates what makes a cover work or spectacularly fail while trying to figure out if these songs are tributes travesties or nostalgia with a new coat of paint read more hear more episodes genx stories cover songs playlist so we just did a whole episode about cover songs and had to make a spotify playlist with all of songs and others we talked about you re welcome listen on spotify now what listeners are saying i have found my people as a gen xer it is easy to feel left out but i fit in here eve and the gang are funny and insightful the vibe is upbeat and i enjoyed not only the trip down memory lane but their perspective as they look back i would recommend to all gen xers i thought i was an outsider turns out that i m gen x i was initially wary because there s a glut of posers preening to our generation but genx stories is legit i truly enjoy the topics gen x stories discusses as they go beyond the typical tropes about gen x and delve into who we are today genius so on target with so much we all want and need to be talking about best hosts best topics thank you to the entire cast just love this if you re a genx er this podcast is required listening a genx podcast worth listening to listening to this podcasts makes me feel like i m chillin with friends who get it in a world filled with blah blah blah this podcast is cool and refreshing i love a good conversation and these four gen xrs have a great flow i just saw a headline about how nostalgia is good for mental well being especially if it helps you find ways to make modern life better y all help me remember what authentic self means and how elements of our era shaped my childhood teens and 20s write us a review a podcast about how the so called lost generation found itself all about us episodes about media news contact us where to listen apple podcasts spotify google podcasts sticher named one of the top 6 podcast for women by women by aarp s the
