First Millennials Pat McMahon First Millennials is a podcast about being Xennials and the struggles hosts Mick and Ali face. Xennials are a micro-generation of people between Generation X and Millennials, born in the late 1970s to early 1980s. Xennials are described as having had an analog childhood and a digital adulthood. These are our struggles.

First, it’s a micro-generation Kate and Lauryn have identified with between Generation X and Millennials. This micro-generation has also been called the Oregon Trail Generation, Generation Catalano, the Star Wars Generation, Xennials, and Elder Millennials - essentially, for our purposes, those born between 1980 and 1985 who would have read Baby-Sitters Club books as they were being released in the late 80s and early 90s. (As an aside, we've come to realize since starting our journey with the Baby-Sitters Club, however, that Generation BSC really is anyone who has grown or is growing up with the BSC, but we're examining it from our perspective in particular.)
