About this listen

 Generation X. If you grew up in the 1970s, 1980s, and early 1990s, you know just how cool it was to be a kid back then. We had the greatest music, movies, games, technology, and pop culture of any generation, and though we've grown older, we have refused to outgrow our love of everything GenX. GenXGrownUp looks at yesterday and today through the eyes of Generation X'ers who have refused to grow up!All rights reserved 2017-24

    Christmas Wish Lists
    Dec 18 2025
    Remember when crafting a Christmas wish list felt like one of the biggest decisions of the entire year? This episode, we’re taking a trip back to those times when the Sears catalog, a handful of crayons, or a carefully written letter to the North Pole were all it took to dream big. Join us as we reminisce about the toys we circled, the treasures we hoped for, and the ways we let Santa know exactly what we wanted waiting under the tree. (May contain some explicit language.)

    Roofman, Sideclick, & The Chameleon
    Dec 11 2025
    We watch a new film about a prison escapee hiding out in a toy store, one of us finds new & interesting ways to feed his unhealthy obsession with pinball, and play an award-winning social board game where the odd man out has to fake knowledge of a secret word.
