What if instead of being on the brink of disaster, we’re on the cusp of a better world? No one can deny the challenges the world faces, from pandemics to climate change to authoritarianism. But pessimism and despair are too easy a response. Each week, Progress Network Founder Zachary Karabell and Executive Director Emma Varvaloucas convene a diverse panel of experts to discuss the central issues of our era, including sustainability, polarization, work, and the economy, and make the case for ...

- Welcome to #Millennial, the home of pretend adulting and real talk!
- We want to keep things light going into the holidays, but the world is still on fire, so we have to acknowledge the viral story of the manhunt for Luigi Mangione, the murderer of UnitedHealthcare CEO. The internet's reacting in a way we expected, but where should we draw the line?
- In our penultimate episode of the year, we're getting into the holiday spirit by revisiting the "it" toys of our childhood.
- What were some all time favorite toys we got as kids? Furby, a bike, and American Girl dolls!
- Tamagotchi, Polly Pockets, and Beanie Babies were huge so many millennials. Too bad we got scammed on thinking Beanie Babies would be valuable lol.
- In our look back, we also pay homage to those toys that were recalled for safety reasons: the Cabbage Patch SnackTime Kid and Sky Dancers. RIP you two, you weren't a 90s kid if you didn't get your fingers chomped by the Cabbage Patch SnackTime kid, or hit in the face by a Sky Dancer.
- What crazy lengths did parents go to to acquire the "it" toy of the year pre-internet?
- Healing our inner child: what gift would we get for our younger selves that we never got?
- This week's recommendations are very timely! Hit your nearest holiday pop up bar with friends (Pam), Mighty Patches to address that blemish before you're forced to take a million pics at the holidays (Andrew), and signing up for a 2025 healthcare plan by 12/15 if you don't already have coverage (Laura).

And in this week's installment of After Dark:
- Hoping to have a cute first date over the holidays? Look no further! We've got advice, and even share our own stories of going on good dates.
- Andrew's first date with Pat was chaperoned, but they got a first date picture out of the deal!
- Is it cool or cringe to have a "spot" to take all your first dates?
