Real Lack of Standards

The pilot episode of The Sopranos laid a lot of groundwork for "prestige television" as we know it today. Liam and Andrew breakdown the pilot particularly Tony's panic attacks, his mother, and how the show portrays teenage angst via Meadow and AJ Soprano. They also talk about the time Liam received life advice from Ian MacKaye, Andrew pissing people off for making fun of Rush Limbaugh on Millennial Sopranos, and how hard it is to find pork roll in the south. Please follow @millennialsopranos on Instagram and subscribe to Real Lack of Standards on Patreon!Blog mentioned in this episode: Master of Sopranos 

Andrew and Liam are two young millennials who have been watching The Sopranos  for the last 6-7 years. With the growing popularity of the show among their fellow millennials and Gen Z,  the two of them decided to take the podcasting plunge and spew their voices onto the web. In this first episode, our hosts talk about how they discovered The Sopranos and the way it resonated with them then and after re-watching the show over the years. The second half of the episode is dedicated to how millennials and zoomers find the show relatable as they search in a world left uncertain due to the pandemic, economic disparity, and much more. Bands mentioned by Andrew at the beginning of episodeEarth Telephone: https://earthtelephone.bandcamp.com/album/lossWell Wisher: https://wellwishernj.bandcamp.com/No Thank You: https://nothankyouband.bandcamp.com/ Articles  referenced and/or used as conversation starters for this episode:https://www.vulture.com/article/the-sopranos-generation-z-memes.htmlhttps://www.gq.com/story/the-sopranos-is-the-hottest-show-of-2020https://www.chicagoreader.com/chicago/sopranos-first-watch-chat/Content?oid=78987881https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2020/dec/19/sopranos-hit-social-media-generation-mafia-series-emotional-struggles
