The Gen X Movie Club

Welcome to The Gen X Movie Club! Just by listening to this podcast, you're a member.  It's free of charge and all you have to do is watch an iconic Gen X film in preparation for the next episode.  That way, you'll be right there with as as we take a walk down memory lane.  This podcast is hosted by Mike and Amy, two aging Gen X misfits who decided to join the podcast sphere by turning their dining room into a podcast studio (because who in Gen X uses their dining room???). We knew these films as kids but how do we see them as full fledged adults?  We look at characters, plot, conflicts, and even symbolism (our high school English teachers would be proud). The main question we ask is, "Does the film hold up?"

On June 1, 2025 we'll be dropping our first episode that takes a deep dive into the John Hughes classic Pretty in Pink.  Listen to this intro podcast to get some ideas on how Gen X Movie Club members might engage with us (80s Movie Watch Party anyone???).  We also encourage you to get your own creative juices flowing by writing us at cranialgroove@gmail.com.  We can share it on our Member's Blog at our website www.cranialgroove.com.  There we have a Member's Blog dedicated to the thoughts and insights of our fellow Gen Xers.  You can also learn more about who we are and why we embarked on this project at this time.  Hint: It's a love letter to Gen X.
