Show Notes
In today's episode Sam & Chase are joined by American novelist, founding editor of the LA Review of Books, and screenwriter Matthew Specktor — who worked directly on the optioning of David Fincher's 1999 classic adapation of Chuck Palahniuk's Fight Club (1996).
Was 1999 the height of human civilisation? Or simply the start of a rage fueled dissent into middle child syndrome? Listen to find out.

After a year, your hosts are ready to wrap Gen X. Season One is at a close. What did we learn about the self-professedly forgotten generation? What has Banksy to do with the spirit of the age? And, most importantly we answer the question that started it all: how did the dirty girls end up in the K-Hive?
DPP is back, baby — and this time for an encore. Chase and Sam thought they'd round out the season — find a 'capstone', if you will — for the last year. That pediment takes the form of Chris Smith's fly-on-the-wall documentary American Movie (1999).
Fear the coming of the trilby. Yes, that's right — today, in the last episode of our first season, we're looking at Gen X accelerating towards middle age and a crash encounter with those coming up behind them: millennials.
