  • The Magazine Rack of Morality
    May 5 2025

    This week on The Gen-X-istentialists, Bunny and Scot spin Mega Wheel the Magnificent and end up deep in the snack-stained pages of their childhood magazine subscriptions — from Discover to Playboy (with a side of Ranger Rick). But hold up — things take a wild turn as the convo evolves into a philosophical freefall on human cloning, eugenics, printed organs, prison ethics, and whether your soul splits if your duplicate wakes up on Mars. Y’know, casual stuff.

    Also: pretzel stands, media literacy, old-school OSHA writing, and why your career path probably veered off harder than your favorite Choose Your Own Adventure ending.

  • Lent, Hicksploitation, and Alpha Males
    Apr 14 2025

    This week, Bunny and Scot are off the rails—in the best possible way. What starts as a casual convo about giving up horror movies for Lent spirals into a full-blown exploration of Hicksploitation cinema, including weird cult classics like Sassy Sue and The Pig Keeper’s Daughter. But it doesn't stop there.

    They tackle big existential questions: Should churches pay taxes? Is society progressing or just spinning in circles? And when do traditional ideas of masculinity help—or totally screw you over?

    Expect deep thoughts, dumb movies, killer quotes, and at least one mention of Jerry Reed in Scooby-Doo. If you're a Gen-Xer who grew up on Fangoria, fish fries, and philosophical debates, this one’s for you.
