Recorded on October 29, 2024, Josh and Jimmy welcome Natalie from the YouTube channel My So-Called Gen X Life for an epic journey through the heart and humor of Generation X. (Get well soon, Kane! 💖) Natalie brings her unique take on all things Gen X, from the quirks of growing up analog in a digital world to the cultural icons that defined a generation. This episode is loaded with stories, laughs, and an unapologetically Gen X sense of humor.
What to expect:
- Gen X Nostalgia Overload: From Saturday morning cartoons to the music videos that rocked MTV, Natalie and the crew swap stories of life before the internet made everything “easy.” 📼🎸
- The Analog Life: What it was like growing up without smartphones, streaming, or constant connectivity—just a boom box, a stack of mixtapes, and pure freedom. 📞💿
- Pop Culture Icons: A deep dive into the movies, music, and TV that captured the soul of Gen X. The conversation covers everything from The Breakfast Club to the bands that made the 80s and 90s unforgettable. 🎬🎶
- Gen X Humor and Grit: With a dark sense of humor and that classic Gen X “whatever” attitude, Natalie and the crew unpack why Gen X is so fiercely independent, often overlooked, and still totally rad. 😎💬

Don’t forget to check out Natalie’s channel, My So-Called Gen X Life, where she shares more stories, laughs, and insights on Gen X culture, nostalgia, and life in the “whatever” lane.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
