ATTENTION APPLE PODCAST SUBSCRIBERS: We're aware of an issue that is preventing y'all from receiving ad free Mega #Millennial episodes. While we are actively troubleshooting this with Apple, they're not exactly moving quickly. You are welcome to request a refund from Apple Podcasts directly We're also inviting you to check out our Patreon instead with your first month on us! This week we're pop culture focused, but that doesn't mean we're not gonna side-eye the latest BS from dear leader: POTUS extended an invitation to Iran to level a couple of west coast cities, while blocking another media outlet from access to the press pool. Very American of you, sir! Then it's on to the main event: our Pop Culture News Roundup. Merriam-Webster just added nearly 1,400 new entries, including looksmaxxing, cuffing season, and trash panda, plus parasocial, superfood, uncanny valley, shapewear, and meme coin. We have thoughts on which of these we're proud of and which make us want to lie down. The Emmys are also leaving broadcast TV for the first time since 1949, landing on Prime Video in a six-year deal. And we have thoughts on method acting to share, based on actor Jeremy Strong's recent sorry-not-sorry statement in the face of being recognized as a huge d-bag. And we've got something for the Hunger Games fans too! A new trailer for 'Sunrise on the Reaping' is here with a closer look at the arena perils, the chariot stampede, and Silka and her axe. We do a quick Haymitch refresher, and give the studio props for its viral marketing placement around our nation's capitol. For this week's recs, Laura says make your early voting plan, and Pam recommends The Uncool by Cameron Crowe. And in this week's installment of After Dark: Pam and Laura have a bone (or several) to pick with some people we're choosing to put on blast behind the paywall. Come be petty with us.

  • Best Nostalgic Halloween Movies for Millennials (Listener Picks + Our Spooky Season Kickoff)
    Sep 30 2026
    Support #Millennial!⁠⁠⁠ Visit Patreon.com/millennial to get exclusive bonus episodes, live stream access, and more! Visit our merch store: ⁠⁠https://shop.millennialshow.com⁠⁠ Follow the show in your favorite podcast app and leave us a review! Spooky season is officially here, and we're kicking it off the only way we know how: by getting way too nostalgic. Are we horror movie people, or do we just like the vibes? From there we get into our fall and Halloween traditions, including favorite scary movie rewatches, creepy and true crime podcasts on repeat, and one very unspooky but very real love of jogging outdoors in the crisp air. And there's no such thing as Spooky Szn without reminiscing about our favorite costumes over the years! Our PALs over at Patreon.com/millennial round out the discussion by sharing their favorite Halloween nostalgia (and we received a confessional admitting to conception during one particular horror movie classic!). We wrap with recs. Laura is listening to the Spooked podcast, Pam recommends O'Keefe's Working Hands to keep your hands moisturized this fall, and Eric is watching Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma (2026) and Cold Storage (2026). Don't miss this week's installment of After Dark, where we get personal about what creeps us out, and if we've ever heard anything go bump in the night! Learn more about your ad choices.
