A graphic titled "#1 - #17 Favorites - No rankings order" against a light blue sunburst background. The list includes 2000s hits such as "Rock With U" by Janet Jackson, "Toxic" by Britney Spears, "Hung Up" by Madonna, and "Lady Marmalade." Notably, the list also includes more recent tracks like "Espresso" (2024) and "Be Sweet" (2021). A QR code is in the bottom right corner with the text "SCAN ME!" and a "Banh Mi Chronicles" logo is in the bottom left. A note at the bottom reads "Pt. 2 coming up soon!"

A title slide with a warm orange sunburst background that reads "Randy's Top 25 favorite songs of the 2000s, Pt. 1." The text "SPOILER ALERT" is displayed in a black-and-white stamp style. Below the title, it lists "Feature Guest: Anjali Misra." The graphic includes a QR code labeled "SCAN ME!" in the bottom right and the "Banh Mi Chronicles" podcast logo—featuring a banh mi sandwich—in the bottom left.

From the era of low-rise jeans to TRL—I’m diving into the tracks that defined a decade. 💿✨

My latest on The Banh Mi Chronicles Pod breaks down the top 2000s songs that still live rent-free in my head..

My car is a 2011 and it's got a 5 disc changer and the headphone jack that I still use with my iPod! 🤣 I'm about to bite the bullet and get a new vehicle and I don't know if I'm ready to give up my archaic ways.

Today I renewed my vehicle registration and started my taxes. I simply cannot be expected to do anymore adulting for at least a month.

New Year, Same Bitch, Direct Approach? My middle aged crisis is either going to be fitness or pornography. Possibly baking and domination.

It’s a little humbling to be the target audience to all these nostalgic music shows (nye, bowl game half time shows, etc). Like, seeing Third Eye Blind playing live… all the filler in the lead singer’s face. Ouch. That hurt. #ElderMillennial

Officially “staring at the presents under the tree trying to recall wtf I bought” years old #christmas #eldermillennial

Inside a cozy home with a Christmas tree lit in the background, a hand holds a copy of “The Theatre Artist’s Guide to Consent-Based Pedagogy” in frame. The book features a dappled marigold and orange cover with hand drawn illustrations of students dancing, laughing, performing together, communicating and writing, atop a background of hand-drawn neurons at top, the authors’ names: Amanda Rose Villarreal and Kim Shively. And the full title in black: The Theatre Artist’s Guide to Consent-Based Pedagogy: Supporting Young Students in Performance and Production”

I teared up encountering this image of The Theatre Artist’s Guide to Consent-Based Pedagogy on IG, underscored by audio of Reading Rainbow’s theme song.

Feeling accomplished and grateful in elder millennial.

19. I've never had an @aol.com email address, but I had Hotmail AND Earthlink so I feel like I should get full credit regardless. (Waterbeds are awful, by the way. I cannot believe I dated that boy for two years.) #ElderMillennial

My coworkers often put the ☠️ emoji underneath things I say. I assumed for quite awhile that that meant I wrote something so ridiculous that it was dead terrible. As it turns out, it means that it was funny. Life lesson: Don’t make assumptions.

I'm so old, I remember when Hulu was free and Trader Joe's was on instacart.

My #eldermillennial heart is happy to hear Seven Nation Army live even if it’s a football half time show.

Changing the battery in my car key fob always makes me feel like such an adult.
