Sex, synths, and martini music: Our favorite albums of 1982
Send a FanMail to the GenX Stories gang via text message! 1982: the year we may have been too young for the music we were listening to. Synths. Breathy vocals.

Expect hot takes, cool memories and at least one person pretending they were cool at the time. Know what "sophisti-pop" means? Press play. turn it up and lock your bedroo...

Scream if you're GenX: the horror movie episode
Send a FanMail to the GenX Stories gang via text message! It's spooky season, and the Gen X Stories podcast crew is digging into horror movies and every creepy sub-genre. The ones we grew up with. The ones we're watching now. And, honestly, WHY DO WE DO THIS to ourselves? Oh, and our guest is the producer of the Final Destination movies (and married to one of us). You'll have to listen to find out how deep his horror knowledge goes. With Halloween creeping closer, we get into what it takes to...

Don’t call us ‘Queenagers’. Seriously.
Send a FanMail to the GenX Stories gang via text message! Apparently GenX Women are "Queenagers" now. Oh HELL, no. This week on the podcast we take a crowbar to the label and everything behind it: corporate age discrimination, tokenism vs diversity, Hollywood's woman issue & how they are dealing with it, and the media's habit of "discovering" women over 50 who've been here the whole time. Plus meet our (not-so) new guest co-host who you will be hearing a lot more from. For the love of Pat...

Is This Thing Still On? Season Eight Kickoff
Send a FanMail to the GenX Stories gang via text message! Since we last saw you, a lot has happened: AARP published us in their magazine. Everyone listened to our drunk episode (ouch). Court and Chris's kids went off to college. Lori mastered the lazy river. And Eve broke some plates (creatively, of course). Oh - we also have a brand new merch store you’re gonna go nuts over (yes, seriously). So what could possibly follow all that in our first episode back? 80s trivia, with questions fr...

Hold my beer: The drunk episode
Send a FanMail to the GenX Stories gang via text message! The crew is all here for a completely unscripted, barely coherent, deeply sincere Season 7 wrap-up. And yes, we're getting drunk. (Well, maybe not all of us.) Expect the usual but even better: meandering tangents, unsolicited hot takes, deeply felt assertions on stuffed animals and confessions about drunk scooting. Oh, and potential equipment damage. Pour yourself something tasty & press play. You know how this go...

Don't call it a hobby: creativity in your 50s
Send a FanMail to the GenX Stories gang via text message! Creativity peaking in your 50s more than your 20s? Yup, that tracks. This episode digs into what that actually looks like and it's got nothing to do with taking a pottery class or learning how to square dance. (again.). You know that we rarely do guests on the show BUT when a fellow Gen Xer (Laura LeBleu) channels her creativity into a gorgeous, 90+ page, three-times-a-year print magazine - for us, by us - we make an exception. W...

From Roswell to Rocky: GenX's Alien Obsession
Send a FanMail to the GenX Stories gang via text message! Congratulations, you've found the one podcast episode that finally settles whether extraterrestrial life exists. Spoiler: we don't know either. Thanks to Lori, we're talking aliens this week - the pop culture kind, the Cold War paranoia kind, and the-cops-told-Eve's-mom-in '58-it-was-a-weather-balloon-but-it-was-definitely-not kind. From Close Encounters to Alien to ET to Project Hail Mary to things on the moon in Roman tim...
