And those nostalgic things are still very much a part of how we live our lives & see the world in the 21st century. On…
The GenXGrownUp Podcast is a must-listen for anyone who is a part of Generation X or simply loves nostalgia and pop culture from the 70s and 80s. These hosts have a genuine love for the source material, and it shines through in each episode. They capture the essence of being a part of living history, and as a listener, it's easy to feel that connection. The hosts have a deep respect for what they do, and their passion is contagious.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the sense of community it creates. It's more than just a podcast; it's a community of like-minded individuals who all share a love for Generation X and beyond. The hosts are active on various platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, Discord, Twitch, Twitter, etc., and they truly enjoy engaging with their audience. Whether it's sharing their thoughts or being shared with by others, there is an undeniable sense of camaraderie within this community.
The content itself is top-notch. The hosts cover a range of topics related to pop culture, technology, and childhood memories from growing up in Generation X.

Their banter is entertaining, and they bring in-depth knowledge and research to each episode without falling into snarkiness or tired attempts at humor.
