Growing Up Is A Trap

Growing Up Is A Trap

Kenny Gillett is officially pressing record on the podcast he’s been talking about since flip phones were a thing—and in this debut episode of Loose Ends, he’s diving deep into the myth of adulthood. Spoiler: it’s not giving luxury, it’s giving “why is rent due again?” This week, Kenny gets real about what it’s like to hit 36 and realize you’re not rich enough to stop eating leftovers, and that being grown is actually… a trap. No one prepared 12-year-old Kenny for the emotional, financial, and fridge-stocking responsibilities of adulthood. Apparently food doesn’t magically appear. Who knew? But it’s not all struggle meals and stress—this episode also celebrates the glow-up of friendship, as Kenny and his bestie Sarah talk about their reuniting of friendship on the mic after five years of not speaking. They’re unpacking how they found their way back to each other, proving that real love can survive toxic friendship vibes, emotional growth, and possibly several ignored texts.
