Boomer and The Millennial

Birthdays, Babies, and Big Reflections...Welcome 2026

t’s a New Year and a birthday celebration on Boomer and the Millennial as Reggie and Armondi kick off 2026 with reflection, laughter, and real talk across generations.

The episode opens with Armondi’s honest new-dad update, navigating sleep deprivation, work, school, and the everyday joys of raising four-month-old Ava Marie—who makes a few surprise appearances of her own. Reggie reflects on celebrating his birthday and New Year as a first-time grandfather, sharing his perspective on aging, gratitude, health, and purpose after a challenging year.

From there, the conversation shifts to sports, as Reggie and Armondi break down the College Football Playoff, Georgia’s frustrating exit, coaching decisions, NIL realities, and bold predictions for the national championship. They also discuss the Atlanta Falcons’ coaching changes, quarterback uncertainty, and what needs to change for Atlanta football to move forward.

The episode wraps with entertainment talk, including the frustration over canceled streaming series, the value of limited series, and why proper endings matter in television, as seen in the series finales of The Upshaws and Stranger Things on Netflix.

Thoughtful, funny, and deeply personal, this episode captures what Boomer and the Millennial do best—connecting life, culture, sports, and family across two generations as they learn from each other in real time.
