This week, Zaga & Nick look back at every so-called “once-in-a-lifetime” event millennials have lived through — from Y2K panic to 9/11, from the 2008 Recession to COVID, and now the AI boom.
We’ve been told we’re living in “unprecedented times” our whole lives… but at this point, unprecedented feels like the precedent.
We’re talking:
💻 Y2K panic and kid-logic apocalypse fears
📉 Surviving the 2008 recession as broke 20-somethings
🌀 The Mayan apocalypse & the meme era
😷 Pandemic chaos, Zoom life, toilet paper wars
🤖 AI “changing everything” (again)
And to wrap it up: we play More or Less Unprecedented to crown the dumbest “Most Unprecedented Event of All Time.”
💬 Audience Question: What’s the most ridiculous “unprecedented” thing you remember living through? Drop it in the comments — we might read it in the next episode!
