Welcome to #Millennial, the home of pretend adulting and real talk! Join us for our last show of 2024!
We do our annual gift exchange a little differently this year by getting non-Secret Santa presents for each other. Get ready for all the wholesome vibes, we knocked it out of the park this year!
To put a bow on 2024 (does it deserve a bow?) we recount the top stories of the year in terms of news, pop culture, and more.
Kamala's brat summer fell out of a coconut tree and surprised and delighted us all - for a brief 100 day window, we were vibing in the context in which we exist. </3
Our love for Cowboy Carter inspires a mini conversation about the evolution of country music - is Andrew becoming a country girlie?
The Kendrick/Drake feud had Pam's attention, and Laura was very glad to benefit from her knowledge of the industry to get in on the tea.
Weirdest news stories of the year? From brain worms to literal palace intrigue, all the way to trauma dumping on Elmo via Twitter... is everyone ok?
We haven't forgotten about other year-defining moments of 2024, like the cursed Pop Tart Bowl, Gypsy Rose's release from prison and subsequent temporary influencer status, and of course, J.D. Vance's poor couch.
Our wonderful Patrons shared their favorite show moments of the year, and we get a little misty eyed. Thank you so much for your support!
There will certainly be... challenges next year, but we wrap our final episode of the year by talking about what we're EXCITED for in 2025!
And for your final 2024 recommendations: Trader Joe's pillar candles (Pam), RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic for Switch (Andrew), and mindful.org for free mindfulness and meditation resources (Laura).

And in this week's installment of After Dark:

We share what we're most proud of from 2024 - from professional gains to getting stronger and everything in between, we're all feeling proud of ourselves in big and small ways. We hope you are too!
We've all found new hobbies and fandoms to engage with, and shed some things (and people) that were no longer suiting us.
Our Patrons share what they're most proud of this year, and WOW, y'all have made some big accomplishments this year!
