Hosted by Baby Boomer, Patrice Sikora, and someone who sits on the cusp as the youngest GenXer or oldest Millennial, Mathew Passy, Irrationally Rational offers an intergenerational take on the best and worst life throws at us. From an opinionated take on the biggest news stories of the week to complaints about the trivial problems in their everyday lives, Patrice and Mathew bring their versions of humor, analytical thinking, wisdom, pathos (Patrice added that one), naivete (Mathew added that one), cynicism, and friendship (we both added that) to this weekly podcast conversation. They may even tackle the often-whined, timeless questions “What’s for dinner?” and “Who left the lights on?”
