Flashback to Us

There was something about Gossip Girl that made New York City feel like a world of its own. The city aesthetic, fashion, drama, and the lives of Manhattan's privileged teens gave us a place to escape into, even when their world was nothing like ours.  Beneath the messy relationships and scandalous secrets, these were teenagers navigating societal expectations, pressure, and identity.  On this epis...

Remember when having an iPod felt like you had the whole world of music in your pocket? 🎧 Before Spotify, Apple Music, and endless playlists, there was the iPod — and for a lot of us millennials, that little device was a flex.

MySpace is making headlines again, and millennials everywhere are feeling a wave of nostalgia. In this episode of Flashback to Us, we’re taking a trip back to a time when the internet felt personal — when we created our own little corners of the web, ranked our Top 8, picked our profile songs, customized our backgrounds, discovered new music, and connected in a way that felt authentic.  Before alg...

Step into neon lights, palm trees, and pure chaos... In this episode of Flashback to Us, we’re heading back to one of the most iconic games of the 2000s- Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. Before streaming, before open worlds were the standard, and before adulthood hit us like a truck… we were stealing cars, memorizing cheat codes, vibing to ‘80s radio stations, and getting completely lost in a world th...

Flashback to Us: Millennial Memories takes a trip back to the chaotic world of LimeWire.

Late fees. Racing to get the newest releases. Empty shelves. If you know, you KNOW.   In this episode, we're diving into the golden age of Blockbuster- where Friday nights became a ritual, the New Releases wall was sacred, and renting video games was all the hype. I'm joined by my boyfriend as we swap stories, laugh at the chaos, and relive the specific kind of stress only millennials understand. 

Before algorithms, before influencers… there was MySpace. In this episode of Flashback to Us, we’re taking it back to the era of fully customized profiles, Imeem playlists, animated backgrounds, and that unmatched feeling of seeing a new message notification pop up. This was more than just social media—it was self-expression, creativity, and connection in its rawest form. We didn’t know it at the...
