Join us for a review of Amy Berg's documentary It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley. We discuss our thoughts on the documentary, our personal fandom of the late Gen X icon, and why he should be in the Rock Hall.

Marc Maron, comedian and podcast trailblazer, sits down with Lovett to discuss why the left always has to be such a buzzkill, whether Americans voted for Trump purely out of annoyance, and why the armies of online trolls love to do the president's bidding. Then they discuss whether we're living in an Age of Mania, if Democrats can shut down anti-woke comedy by simply being funnier, and whether Lovett can learn to stop catastrophizing every time his calls drop.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Rob Janicke in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.robjanicke.com/ HAVE I GOT A LITTLE STORY FOR YOU...   The year was 1984. I was eleven years old and popular music was in a state of confusion. Along with songs by artists I liked such as Van Halen, Prince, Quiet Riot, Duran Duran, Billy Idol, and The Police, Top 40 radio constantly played songs from bands or artists that didn't quite do it for me. Apologies to Kenny Loggins, Phil Collins, Bananarama, Wang Chung, and Ray Parker Jr.   Due to the divorce of my parents and telling my mom that I was so unhappy that I no longer wanted to live, I was now a couple of years into therapy. It was around this time that I really began to find solace in music. The mid to late '80s gave me hope. Rap, punk rock, and alternative music befriended me at a time when I needed them the most.   A mixtape from 1989, courtesy of a high school friend, opened my soul to the music that would change my life forever- the gritty sound of grunge.   I know that this experience is not unique to me or my life. History has shown that millions of Gen X kids who were going through some heavy times in the late '80s and early '90s, found comfort in the grunge and alternative music and culture that came first from Seattle, then the world. Music can save lives; we are proof of that. This book and that sentiment is for the SLACKER in all of us. - Rob Janicke, author of Slacker  

We've officially hit Peak 65, the historic moment when more Americans than ever are turning 65. But retirement in 2025 looks nothing like it used to. In this eye-opening episode of Your Money Map, Jean Chatzky sits down with generational researcher Jason Dorsey to explore how Baby Boomers, Gen Xers, and even Millennials are rethinking retirement — financially, emotionally, and socially.

Today, Fr. Gale is joined by three guests to discuss the difference between each generation and what it means for our pursuit of the faith.

I have been captivated by the concept of The In Between, that mysterious space between enduring your pain and trauma and fully moving forward. It is a place where it is easy to get stuck in familiar patterns of suffering, because they have become uncomfortably comfortable. Pain can feel like an old snugle blanket you have held onto for years and letting go feels strange, even a little like losing yourself.  But The In Between is also where transformation happens. It is where you begin to truly integrate all the tools you have learned along the way: setting boundaries, speaking up for yourself, saying no and meaning it, being gentle with yourself and leaning fully into your feelings.  It can feel scary to step into this space, but it is also so magical. It is here, in the tension between what was and what can be, that you learn to trust yourself and your healing.  Come with me as I explore this fascinating, powerful and sometimes uncomfortable place, The In Between.  linktr.ee/amyloganlife

Kevin Ryan joins Bridget to discuss the ups and downs of a career in freelance writing. With AI churning out soulless content, they defend the gritty, human struggle of writing, why writing should be hard, and breaking the myth of the tortured alcoholic writer. They cover why everyone should have some revolutionary instincts in their 20s, why the loss of trust in media might be healthy, how the center has become so centerless, why some of Kevin's favorite philosophers and writers are critical theorists and post-modernists, how the Left became the Right and the Right became the Left, why journalism should still have gatekeepers, Gen X's moment in the sun, how to give kids the value and thoughtfulness they deserve, and how Bridget became the Forrest Gump of the culture wars.Sponsor Links: - Quest offers 100+ lab tests to empower you to have more control over your health journey.

More Americans in their 50s, 60s, and beyond are starting businesses than ever before—but they're also facing new, mounting challenges. In this episode of Friends Talk Money, we unpack what's fueling this surge in encore entrepreneurship and how recent policy shifts—especially cuts to the Small Business Administration (SBA) and new trade barriers—are making it harder for older founders to succeed. Special guest Hedy Ratner, co-founder of the Women's Business Development Center, joins us to discuss how older entrepreneurs, particularly women and minorities, are being affected. We cover: Why older Americans are launching businesses in record numbers How Trump-era policy changes are shrinking access to critical SBA support Why tariffs and trade policy shifts are squeezing small business margins What this means for women-, minority-, and veteran-owned businesses What encore entrepreneurs need to do now to protect and grow their ventures If you're starting or running a small business later in life, you'll want to hear what's changing—and what resources are still out there to help you thrive.   Links: Women's Business Development Center (WBDC) SCORE Small Business Administration (SBA) Most boomers and Gen X-ers are terrified about running out of money in retirement — even if they're already retired (Marketwatch)  

Social Security is back in the headlines, and the news isn't exactly comforting. Words like shortfall and cuts are sparking real fear among retirees, near-retirees, and younger workers who wonder if the program will even be there for them. In this episode, Jean sits down with Michelle Singletary, nationally syndicated personal finance columnist for The Washington Post, to break it all down: What a potential 20–25% shortfall in 2033 could actually mean for retirees. Why your check won't disappear entirely  The surge in early claims: Should you take the money now, or wait? Why writing Social Security out of your retirement plan is a mistake for Gen X, millennials, and Gen Z.

We are so excited because this week we sit down with the fabulous Stacy London (yes, that Stacy London!) for some fashion therapy. Stacy London became a household name from the show What Not to Wear, but now she has now given us permission to toss the “rules” and wear whatever the heck we want. We talked about everything from Gen X “uniforms” (hello quarter-zips and yoga pants) to how our bodies shift in midlife and leave us without a style identity. Stacy reminds us that middle age isn't an expiration date—it's a renaissance. And fashion, at its best, is less about rules and more about joy and compassion for ourselves. (I told you it was fashion therapy.) Ps. Check out her new show Wear Whatever the F You Want with Clinton Kelly on Amazon Prime! It's great!And because it wouldn't be our podcast without a little detour, you'll also hear an original song dedicated to Stacy and a hilarious debate about what to call you—our listeners. (Are you Laugh Liners? Laughables? The Laugh Pack? We need your vote.) If you've ever felt stuck in a fashion rut or not sure what shade lavender is (ahem, Penn) this episode is for you.

Ten years ago, at the launch of Vogue Runway, there were a series of articles published about the '90s. Sarah Mower contributed a piece on the lasting impact of Helmut Lang, Lynn Yaeger penned an ode to grunge, and Luke Leitch shared his recollections of the decade's menswear (shout-out for warehouse-sale Maharishi!). A quick survey of the fall 2025 trends includes both 1980s Working Girl chic and aughts-era indie sleaze. But the '90s reign supreme, and with incoming creative directors at Gucci, Versace, and Maison Margiela, three brands at their It-est in those years, the '90s aren't going anywhere anytime soon.On today's episode of Vogue's Run-Through podcast, Mark Holgate, Luke Leitch, and Nicole Phelps—proud Gen X-ers—discuss the persistence of the '90s phenomenon and make the case for a new kind of futurism.

You don't need a plan if you've got the right people in your corner.I loved this chat with Brett Trainor, who walked away from corporate life and found something even better—freedom, purpose, and a community of support. Brett shares how his journey unfolded not through strategy, but through relationships. From his first freelance gig to building the Escapee Collective for Gen Xers ready to do work on their own terms, Brett proves that connection is the true currency. We talked about the mistakes he made early on, how Tiktok became an unexpected launchpad, and why your old network might just be your greatest asset. If you're navigating change or considering a shift, this conversation is packed with insight, encouragement, and a reminder that you're never doing it alone.Highlights:1. Relationships Are Your Launchpad - Brett's first freelance gig came from someone he hadn't spoken to in 15 years. Your past connections hold future value.2. How Tiktok Ignited a Movement - He built a Gen X audience of over 70,000 by simply sharing personal stories—no dancing required.3. From Crickets to Community - The Escapee Collective started as a Slack group and evolved into a paid, engaged support hub for corporate escapees.4. LinkedIn Is Still King - He uses Tiktok to funnel people to LinkedIn, where meaningful B2B connections and collaboration actually happen.5. The Power of Being Helpful First - Brett now leads with generosity—offering value without the hard sell—and it pays back in community and credibility.Connect with Brett:Website: https://www.bretttrainor.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bretttrainor/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the_corporate_escapeeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/bretttrainor/ In appreciation for being here, I have some gifts for you:A LinkedIn Checklist for setting up your fully optimized Profile:An opportunity to test drive the Follow Up system I recommend by checking this presentation page - you won't regret it.

Anna received an email from a listener about something he thinks she and Raven should talk about on the show! But the email has a disgusting photo attached…and Anna talks about it! Are you up to date on this week's biggest news story? Anna and Meteorologist Ashley will get you caught up on the trending news including one of the most “hate-watched” show's series finale and Andie MacDowell's daughter, Margaret Qualley, is playing matchmaker for her mom! A lot of people thought that Jay-Z would be the performer of the Super Bowl but since August 6th people think it will be Taylor Swift! Find out why! Millennials and Gen X have reverted to pacifiers to sooth their stress and Anna thinks it might be something she should look into! Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are extremely competitive so Anna, Raven, and Producer Julie share what they're competitive at! All the kids are yelling “six seven” and Anna asked her teenage niece what it means! Do you understand these words, because we are still trying to understand the new slang! So, what do global leaders eat for lunch when they have a meeting? The menu for a recent meeting between American President Trum and Russian President Putin was leaked, and Anna and Raven aren't sure it represents America's finest food! On the New Heights podcast, Jason Kelce had a food hot-take that got all his fans talking, but what's your food hot-take? Patty wants to start the tradition of “Back to School Gifts” so that their young children will be excited to return to school. She thinks that if there's wrapped presents on their first day back when they come downstairs in the morning (like Christmas morning) it'll get rid of some of the dread. Dad (Javier) thinks this is the most absurd thing he's ever heard. Get on the bus and go back to school, they're not spending money on more toys and junk so they can be excited for fifteen minutes. She says it's not a horse they're buying; it's Barbies and trucks! What do you think? Chris has a chance to win $4100! All he has to do is answer more pop culture questions than Raven in Can't Beat Raven!

Barm and Kregg (Sneed is in the previously on) return for more Picard, and everyone sort of agrees that this is maybe kinda sorta an improvement on the last two episodes.  Especially, a scene between Bevs and Jean-Luc has our knickers in a twist.  Barm also goes off on Boomers, Jack goes off on Zoomers who don't know what Boomers are, Kregg is amused, but we all agree that Shaw is Gen-X.  We still can't figure out whether Beverly is in Starfleet or not, but we do know Jack Crusher is the oldest-looking early twenty-something we've ever seen.  Packs a hell of a K-O punch, though.  We're all entering a nebula of alcohol though, and wondering if the whole nightmare of Picard will end up being an elaborate prank orchestrated by Moriarty.  Plus, we celebrate some shocking Trek news and the return of Mando, and pray for Barm's testicle.  In other words, it's just a regular-ass Jaxilly. 

In this first of our two-part Food & Wine Festival special, Scott and Candice dig deep into the front half of the 2025 EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival. From flaky samosas to suspicious milkshakes, we break down what's new, what's returning, and what's totally skippable. Along the way, you'll hear our festival strategy, hot takes on influencer hype, and why we're not falling for the pickle milkshake trend (again).Plus, we share our Eat to the Beat concert picks (Spoiler: Gen X is THRIVING), how you can help choose Scott's breakfast on social, and why the dining plan may be a double-edged sword when it comes to festival snacking.By the end of this episode, you'll have a full itinerary for navigating World Celebration, Discovery, and Nature – including what's open now, what's delayed until late September, and which booths are just not worth the hype.

How do you find purpose, passion, and fulfillment in this new phase of life?In this inspiring episode, Dr. Janelle explains the two stages of human development: the unconscious “boot camp” where we seek external validation, and the conscious “creating heaven on earth” phase, where we connect deeply with our hearts. She offers practical, powerful strategies to overcome subconscious blocks—like her insight: "If you challenge yourself, you'll attract support. If you stay in your comfort zone, you'll attract challenges."  For those asking, “What now?” after children leave home, she advocates connecting with your heart through gratitude and self-love to discover inspiration for your next steps. Asking the fundamental questions—Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going?—can turn this transition into an exciting journey of self-discovery and purpose.Highlights & Key Takeaways:Loving your children without tying your identity to parenting avoids unhealthy pressure.Making parenting your entire purpose leads to stress for both you and your kids.Understanding the two stages of development helps clarify where you are now.Challenge yourself to attract support, and resist staying in your comfort zone to avoid challenges.Connect with your heart through gratitude and self-love to unlock inspiration.Live authentically as a role model for your adult children.Use self-inquiry—Who am I?

The 401(k) system promised financial security, but the numbers tell a different story. In this second part of our series, Hans and Brian delve into Fidelity's latest retirement savings data, revealing why the average American's retirement plan may be setting them up for failure.From baby boomers with $250,000 balances to millennials drowning in target date funds, we break down what these numbers mean for your financial future. The math might look clean on paper, but real life has other plans – and the results are sobering.Using actual data from millions of accounts, the hosts expose the gap between retirement planning promises and reality. When 25% of Gen X workers have loans against their 401(k)s and the average retiree faces a life of financial scarcity, it's time to question whether this system works for anyone except the financial industry selling it.The Reality Check: Average Balances Don't Add Up The data is stark: baby boomers average $250K in 401(k)s and $250K in IRAs. Using the sacred 4% withdrawal rule, that's just $20,000 annually in spendable income after taxes. Brian and Hans walk through why even the "successful" savers are facing potential poverty in retirement, especially when you factor in today's cost of living.The Target Date Fund Trap A staggering 70% of millennials are invested solely in target date funds. These funds create continuous taxable events through portfolio churning while charging excessive fees. The hosts explain why "set it and forget it" might be the worst advice young workers are receiving.The Loan Problem Nobody Talks About One in four Gen X workers have outstanding loans against their 401(k)s, effectively disrupting the very compounding they were promised. This isn't a character flaw – it's proof that life happens, and when it does, people need access to their money. The hosts explore how this reality destroys the mathematical assumptions underlying retirement planning.Why the 10x Rule is Setting You Up for Failure Fidelity recommends having 10x your income saved by age 67, but their own data shows the average person has saved for someone making just $50,000 annually.

What does “retirement” really look like for Gen Xers—and why do so many struggle with it?In this episode, I sit down with Joy Levin, market research consultant turned retirement coach, who helps Gen X professionals design their encore years with purpose, connection, and freedom.We dive into:Why retirement is no longer a five-year chapter but a 30-year journey—and what that means for planning.How our latchkey kid upbringing shaped Gen X resilience, adaptability, and desire for freedom.The social side of retirement—why isolation is one of the biggest post-corporate risks and how to avoid it.Common mistakes people make when transitioning out of corporate life.How to create your own “portfolio life” built on purpose, flexibility, and joy.Why couples need to plan their next chapter together—before one person books the world trip and the other says, “But what about the grandkids?”Whether you're years away from leaving corporate or already in your next chapter, Joy's insights will help you think bigger, plan smarter, and make the most of the decades ahead.Connect with Joy Levin: • LinkedIn: Joy Levin • Website: Gen X Exec Encore

Cultists, continuing with the Sinners theme. Another one of the film's often cited influences was Stephen King's Salem's Lot. Adapted as a two part TV movie by Texas Chainsaw Massacre director Tobe Hooper, this Gothic Horror throwback scarred the Gen X kids that grew up with it on television, and gave us one of the ‘70s most iconic vampires the Nosferatu-esque Kurt Barlow.

In this week's episode, Ed the Sock and Liana Kerzner talk about people who speak with confidence but are full of sh*t, why Gen X were the last generation to have a real childhood, misleading product names, that new & improved is typically the former not the latter and other subjects they use to swing between topics like Tarzan using vines in the jungle.

How do you grow predictable revenue for your non-profit initiative?  In this value-packed episode of Leaders of Transformation, host Nicole Jansen sits down with Jonathan Beck, founder of WeGive—a powerful SaaS platform transforming how nonprofits and faith-based organizations engage donors and fuel their missions. After co-founding PayStand, a global leader in digital payments, and building a successful career in Silicon Valley, Jonathan felt a strong pull to return to his roots and serve the nonprofit world. With WeGive, he's merging innovative technology with purpose, helping mission-driven leaders build stronger supporter relationships and generate sustainable, predictable revenue. Jonathan shares how donor engagement is evolving from basic transactions (“Giving 1.0”) to immersive, personalized experiences through what he calls a Giving Experience Platform. Today's donors expect more than forms and receipts—they want meaningful stories, deeper connection, and seamless digital interactions. Nicole and Jonathan discuss how nonprofits and churches can elevate engagement, integrate modern tech like Salesforce and Planning Center, and use AI to reduce administrative burden. They also dive into the real-world challenges leaders face when navigating digital transformation—and how to overcome them with clarity and confidence. Whether you're an executive director, outreach pastor, fundraising professional, or mission-driven entrepreneur, this episode will inspire you with fresh ideas and actionable strategies to amplify your impact. What We Discuss in This Episode How is “Giving 3.0” different from traditional fundraising methods? What is a “Giving Experience Platform” and how does it work? Why are personalized donor journeys critical for today's nonprofit growth? What practical steps help nonprofits increase donor retention and conversion? How does WeGive integrate with tools like Planning Center, Salesforce, and more? Which donor engagement strategies work best for Gen X and Millennial supporters? What are the biggest barriers to technology adoption in the nonprofit sector—and how can leaders overcome them? How does AI streamline repetitive nonprofit tasks and elevate donor relationships? Who are WeGive's ideal clients—and how do they measure success? What pricing models make advanced fundraising tech accessible for growing organizations?

It's not just a transaction—it's a relationship.” ~ Jonathan Beck “Most nonprofit tools are stand-alone point solutions. What we need is an integrated giving commerce flow that merges online and offline experiences.” ~ Jonathan Beck “AI and integrated platforms are finally letting small teams create the personal, high-touch donor journeys that used to be reserved for huge organizations.” ~ Jonathan Beck Be sure to check out WeGive.com for more info, a demo, or to explore partnership opportunities.

In the second of our small series on Mental Health at Work, Jenn Mason and I tackled a really challenging episode (as you can see by the title). We jumped right in by asking if resilience is being "weaponized" - used as a justification for harmful systems rather than a skill to be supported.  We explore the dark side of a resilience culture, where praising people for surviving toxic, high-demand environments becomes a smokescreen for the actual problem. What is the difference between empowering people to heal versus requiring them to manage the harm inflicted upon them by broken systems? We talk about how this "grind it out" mentality is often hard-coded generationally, something Jenn and I personally experienced coming up in the Gen X workforce.  We share our own stories and hope you'll enjoy them as well.

Join host Syama Bunten for an inspiring conversation with Cate Luzio, founder and CEO of Luminary, the global platform advancing women and underrepresented talent in the workplace. Cate shares her remarkable journey from a middle-class upbringing with an FBI agent father and teacher mother to leading multi-billion-dollar corporate banking units at JP Morgan and HSBC, before launching her own company at age 44. In this candid conversation, Cate reveals how her Gen X "save, save, save" mentality and early lessons about hard work shaped her financial foundation.

In this episode, Michelle surprises Chase with an unexpected article about generational differences. The article might just challenge how you think about age at work. But the real story unfolds as Michelle and Chase dive into what it actually takes to thrive on multi-generational teams. Spoiler alert: It's less about the year you were born and more about how well you understand and connect with others as individuals. From communication styles to shared goals, they unpack practical strategies to bridge generational gaps, build trust, and tap into the unique strengths each teammate brings to the table. Whether you're a Boomer, Gen X, Millennial, Gen Z, or Gen Alpha, this episode reminds us that success isn't about labels, it's about us, working better together.

In this episode, Sam and Matt McCraw unpack weekly church attendance trends from 2016 to 2024 across four generations. While Boomers slightly increased from 27% to 28%, Gen X dropped from 24% to 22%, Millennials from 26% to 22%, and Gen Z saw the sharpest decline—from 29% to 24%. What do these shifts mean for the future of church engagement, discipleship, and ministry strategy? We explore the implications for leadership, generational outreach, and the need for intentional connection points that resonate with each group. The post Weekly Church Attendance Patterns by Generation: 2016 to 2024 appeared first on Church Answers.

As we move through August, I want to talk about what I am calling "The In Between." The in between of pain/trauma/struggles and healing and truly moving through it all to get to the place of living the life you want. It is tricky because you are so used to our pain/trauma/struggles that you may not really know who you are without it.  Who are you without high levels of anxiety? Who are you without thinking about how you have been wronged? Who are you without the rumination and worry of your pain? The worry and rumination keep you tethered to your pain. Learning to move through it all takes time and practice. If you find yourself clinging to your pain, don't worry, it is actually a good sign if you can see that you do that.  As you reflect on your own journey, tune into this meditation and let your body relax and connect with your higher self. You have to slow down the noise of life to see if you are stuck in your old ways. They are familiar to you, so it makes sense that you cling. Even uncomfortable feels comfortable sometimes. It can feel very scary to set down this piece of you, the old you, the one that was so in her pain that she could see no way out, to the you that can see a way out, but your identity and stories and way of being, keep you locked into the only way of being you know. This in between is such a scary place to be. However, if you lean into trusting yourself, a whole new world will open up for you. Are you wiling to build your "trusting yourself" muscle? This is the place where all the magic happens.

This week the Jackie and MJ, who are NOT affiliated with the Daughters of the American Revolution, are back for some Second Helpings! Jackie gives an update on what happened to the Snackies from this week's Page 7, Sydney Sweeney's brother is supporting her or something dumb, but tig biddy has been big played out, and Jackie gives a less than stellar review of "Happy Gilmore 2" followed by a brief discussion of Adam Sandler crew's disappointing political beliefs. MJ and Jackie have another chat about the great Goop audiobook, and Kim Jong EW becomes a true tyrant as he has banned hot dogs from North Korea. Jackie was forced to go to a Primus show and had to deal with a bunch of Gen X edgelords, and a recent Phish concert in NYC made MJ realize Phish phans have hit middle age and sent them on a downward spiral. Wednesday season 2 dropped with a collab for an UNHAPPY Meal from Wendy,  and no one wants to wait in line at a Wendy's like that, man!  Walton Goggins did a sexeh ad for Doritos Golden Sriracha flavor, but Nicholas Hoult won't get any as he keeps getting told he's "too inbred looking." A trailer for the new "Running Man" reboot has dropped, featuring old Shark Mouth himself as the star, Matt Rife is gross and he leased Annabelle and the Estate for 5 years, so here's hoping she continues to take out her caretakers! Heinz and Smoothie King have collaborated to release a limited-edition "Heinz Tomato Ketchup Smoothie" because the world is a terrible terrible place, Anthony Hopkins is a great Instagram follow which Jackie happened to discover while watching the Hannibal TV series!

While Brian frolics somewhere in the Pacific Northwest, Jason brings in cyber-sleuth Dave Bittner for a jam-packed episode covering everything from Gen X's slow descent into obscurity to furries, feds, and face-scanning your way into porn. The guys start with a salute to the late, great Tom Lehrer—a math nerd with a piano and zero tolerance for BS—before diving into the avalanche of cyber screwups plaguing today's digital circus.The biggest spill? The so-called “safe” dating app Tea just doxxed its entire user base—because who needs privacy when you've got bad Firebase settings from 2017? Meanwhile, teens are befriending chatbots, Microsoft is issuing pink slips via PowerPoint, and Meta might be training its AI on stolen porn. Add in farmers installing turnstiles in the Dolomites to keep influencers off their grass, age verification laws that Norman Reedus can bypass with a JPEG, and Tesla diners turning into 24/7 neighbor hellscapes, and yeah—it's just another week on the internet.If you're a Gen Xer feeling invisible, underpaid, and over it, congrats—you're not alone.
