During this shorter-than-usual episode we are reacting to and digesting what we learned from watching Climate Change - The Facts, a new 1-hour documentary from BBC narrated by David Attenborough.  The documentary is a massive wakeup call and appeal for everybody to pay attention to and take action towards the climate crisis. It's hard not to feel bummed out after watching this, I will be honest. But it's important to talk about.  This is certainly a stray from our usual episode format, but we are in 6 episodes in so I guess we get to make it up as we go! Let us know what you thought in an email to themoralmillennials@gmail.com     

In our 5th episode after an unintentional break we are back to chat about Earth Day! 2019 marks the 49th Earth Day and we dove deep into the history of the holiday and how people have honored it ever since. Where does virtue signaling come in? If you're a millennial then you're seeing it in your feed all Earth Day long.   Bonus conversation in the form of two new segments! Stupid Science and Documentary Review    Send us an email at themoralmillennials@gmail.com with your questions, complaints, suggestions, etc. 

In our fourth episode (back after an accidental month off from recording) we talk about the joys of arguing with strangers online. As veterans of the social media battlefields we recount our favorite arguments, outline why we keep fighting with these people, and learn about the ways scientists are trying to study social media's influence on "real life." Another new segment is introduced: the wokest take. What is it? Listen to find out! And as always, email us at themoralmillennials@gmail.com

It's hard to stay on top of what is happening in the news, especially when it feels like we are reading a little bit all the time when we scroll through social media. In this episode we talk about where millennials are getting their news, how long we spend consuming it, and why we feel kind of guilty when we don't stay on top of it. We also establish that one of us knows a lot more than the other about current events (Evan) and that Katie is absorbing useful pop culture information from somewhere... probably Buzzfeed. Enjoy! And as always, any and all feedback is welcome at themoralmillennials@gmail.com or through our website at themoralmillennials.com. 

It's a new year, but it's the same us. We are back this week and jumped right into 2019 by talking about New Year's resolutions. How often do people fail at them and more importantly what mistakes lead to failure? Plus a new segment to wrap up our second episode!

Welcome to the first episode of the Moral Millennials! In this pilot podcast we tackle millennial's charitable giving habits, what we think about it, and using our time versus our money to make changes to the causes we care most about.  It's our first episode and we want your feedback about how it went!
