The XMXperience Trailer
It started with an idea. Actually… a few ideas.
One of them involved politics. That one didn’t make it very far—mostly because Don and Jake wanted to remain friends.
Around the same time, Jake and Sammie were having a different kind of conversation: Everyday life. The moments—big and small—that make you stop and ask the same question over and over again:
What the fuck?
That question became the foundation. Jake pitched it to Don. Just real conversations, honest reactions, and different generations trying to make sense of the same world. Don loved it.
What followed were unfiltered discussions about work, relationships, culture, and the everyday chaos we all deal with—told through the perspectives of two Gen Xers and a millennial. Sometimes funny. Sometimes thoughtful. Sometimes accidentally insightful.
That’s what The XMXperience is.
Not a rebrand. Just a better name for what this always was.
If you like real conversations, generational perspective, and moments that make you laugh, shake your head, or quietly think “how is this normal?”—you’re in the right place.
Welcome to The XMXperience.
0:04 It always starts with an idea. Sometimes it's a good one. Sometimes it's half -baked. And sometimes it's an idea you're smart enough not to follow through on. At one point, Don and I kicked around the idea of a political podcast. But the podcast world was already saturated with that, and we wanted to remain friends. A few years later, Sammy and I were having a very different conversation. About everyday life. The moments, big and small, that make you stop and say, What the fuck? When I pitched that idea to Don, he loved it. Two Gen X dudes and a millennial woman? What could possibly go wrong? Different generations. Different perspectives. Same world. What followed were real conversations. About work, life, relationships, road rage, food, weird headlines. Our recording sessions morphed into therapy sessions. We made each other laugh so hard that the bloopers became just as entertaining as the conversations. We realized that we had created a unique dynamic.
1:23 That's what the XM experience is. Not a rebrand. Just a better name for what this always was. Same conversations, same chaos. I'm Jake Jacobs, and on behalf of Don and Sammy, you're listening to The XM Experience.
