Are the first 100 days of Trump 2.0 almost over? It’s Day 92 and chaos is in full swing—court drama erupted over the weekend, US citizens are being detained by ICE, and HHS is compiling a list of autistic Americans (uh, what?). But don't worry, we may not be able to fix the world's problems, but we can be a big sis for Gen Z to fill them in on 90's and Y2K lore. Millennials are still tired though,...

This week, we’re tackling some wild stats—like how 46% of Gen Z would choose to be "severed" to avoid experiencing their workday (as inspired by Apple TV's Severance).  We're also looking at the World Happiness Report where Finland is still the happiest (obviously), and the U.S. is now chilling at 24th place even though the current admin would have us believe we're #1. Since happiness is impacted...

Welcome to #Millennial, the home of pretend adulting and real talk! We had to delay our recording for a day because Laura got stuck in Atlanta's latest snowmaggedon embarrassment.
