Running in Place: A Gen X Take on a Millennial World

Movies & Music Suck!!!

Do words matter?  What if you have no idea what they mean?  If they meant something else last week and this week they mean something completely different.  That's the world we live in today.  We live in a word of definitions that mean whatever the aggrieved want them to mean.  In this week's episode, Jack and Craig go over the words that can't be used in polite society any more.  They also talk about their band name.  They even spend a couple minutes defending Joe Biden...sort of. How is this happening?  What does it mean to us? Follow us at @RunningPlacePod on twitter.

It's VERBOTEN!!!

This weeks episode is focused on the retail economy and what's changing and how it is changing the lives of those around us.  What does it mean for us?  Is the economy changing going to have local economic impacts?  Does it mean that we'll all use Amazon Prime, Walmart or Costco?  What does it mean for jobs for young people?  Is it really an apocalypse or just something natural. We also try, unsuccessfully, the come up with a way to shoe-horn in porn references since our last episode on pornography was so well received. Check this out.  What we predict today will become the barren wasteland of strip malls in the near future as the zombies roam the earth looking for black-Friday deals.    

The Retail Apocalypse, or If You Prefer, the Retail aPORNcalypse

What are the effects of pornography on society?  Is it different now than it used to be?  Are there negative effects on today's youth that didn't exist just a few decades ago?  What's up with the No Fap movement?  Is it a real thing? All this and more will be discussed as well a trip down memory lane for discussion of 1st exposure to porn.  It is not what you might think.  Discussion of early 9600 baud porn and what the early days of internet porn looked like.

Porn: From Bra Ads to Broadband

Just when things could get any more weird, Jussie Smollett is allegedly under suspicion of staging an attack on himself in Chicago.  What the hell is going on here?  If true, will they prosecute?

EMERGENCY Episode 2.5 - Jussie Smollett Reportedly Under Suspicion of Staging Attack

An examination of the #MeToo culture and where it is at and how it looks to the Gen X culture.  Why were we not so offended?  Why did the "offenders" of our generation get the ability to come back but today an accusation is the equivalent of an execution.

Nope Out! Who Decides if Your Career is Over?

This is is a crazy world we live in.  Gen X'ers are getting podiatrists and chiropractors and Millennials are telling us we're bad people.  How did we get here.  In the introductory episode of the Running in Place Podcast, hosts Craig and Jack go over the generations that got us here.
