Nick is dying from allergies.

Zaga threw his back out.

And somehow… this episode still happened.

This week on Adulthood Pending, the guys dive into one of the most relatable parts of being an adult:

Pretending you understand things that you absolutely do not.

From credit scores and insurance policies to stocks, crypto, and networking, millennials have mastered the art of confidently nodding along in conversations while secretly having no idea what anyone is talking about.

But the episode takes a completely unexpected turn when a spider drops down mid-recording and nearly ends Nick’s life on camera.

Yes… that actually happens.

In this episode we get into:

📈 Why millennials pretend to understand stocks

💳 The confusing reality of credit scores

🧾 Tax write-offs that nobody actually understands

🍷 Fake wine experts and vineyard snobs

🕸️ The spider incident that broke Nick’s brain

🤝 Why networking is just awkward adult small talk

📑 Insurance policies nobody reads

📚 Why school never taught us real life skills

🍽️ The unspoken rules of tipping

If you've ever confidently nodded in a conversation about escrow, crypto, or investments while secretly Googling it later, this episode is for you.
