Our generation has a lot on its plate and we're always looking for the best ways to bring change into the world.  One of the strongest ways to make this happen is responsible consumption.  Where you spend your money can impact the environment, social movements, local communities and even elections! We explore what is means to consumer responsibly on this week's episode of Twenty Somethings Podcast.

EP#86 - Responsible Consumption: Your Key To Making A Difference

In the 1950s, the average parents were 24 years old.  Now, they're in their early 30s.  In honor of father's day, on today's episode of Twenty Somethings podcast, we're exploring why twenty somethings are now waiting to have kids until their 30s.  We discuss the causes of this phenomenon, the pros and cons of the decision, and some of the wider societal implications.   Topics covered include: women's rights, the development of birth control, the rising price of education, salaries of twenty something year olds, the modern cost of raising children

EP#83 - Say Their Names (A Plea For The End Of Systematic Racism and Police Brutality)

In the midst of a pandemic, a climate crisis, and an otherwise rapid changing 21st century, we have one question: where are all the experts?! The past decade has given us a drastic fall in the trust we have for our institutions and people who actually know what they're talking about.  This episode we talk about the side effects of this.  Topics include: the rise of armchair experts, the United States fall in education, and the psychology behind our avoidance of the facts.

EP#82 - The Death Of Expertise

Keith and Grant take a virtual sit down this week with good-friend and longtime Keith-Advocate and Grant-Denier, Gianni Damaia of the Bad Movies Podcast! We talk how the movie industry is going to take on the task of mounting a film in the middle of a global pandemic. If you want to know a bit of the ins and outs of a film set, and how that all might change (and what you will experience will change), take a listen! We also discuss the demolition of Movie Theaters, how "The Mandalorian" might be providing a key map to the non-covid galaxy that seems far, far away, and how Gianni Damaia is writing a book. But won't tell us what it's about. What a sucker.

EP#81 - Will Movie Theaters Go Extinct? How COVID-19 is Affecting the Entertainment Industry

We're back and better than ever (debatable). We know Coronavirus is on overdrive these days, but we figured being in the thick of New York would give us a unique drop on the subject, especially in dispelling some hysteria.    --   IG: @keithvartanian | @grantdavidcrawford Twitter: @keith_vartanian | @higrantcrawford

EP#81 - Quarantined in New York: A Coronavirus Comeback!

EP#80 - Quarantined in New York: A Coronavirus Comeback!

This week, we spend most of our time focusing on the top trending headlines that has crashed stock markets and inflated the prices of face masks; the coronavirus.  Is it time for the United States to freak out? How is the Trump administration handling the outbreak? Is the stock market crash rational? These and many more questions are explored. 

Ep#80 - Should You Freak Out Over The Coronavirus Yet?

Ep#79 - Should You Freak Out Over The Coronavirus Yet?

On this week's episode, Keith and Grant discuss how the advocacy and immediacy of climate change and the current global climate crisis might actually backfire in terms of true progress made. As pointed out on a previous episode about the misinformation on the wildfires in the Amazon, giving out false evidence for things without doing due diligence on a topic can set our sour taste in the mouths of the undecided or skeptical and can set the timeline of progress back years - sometimes even decades.   Do you agree?
