The hosts explore why the term "kiddo" feels unsettling to them, linking it to its use by villains in horror and suspense films like *The Texas Chainsaw Massacre* and *Silence of the Lambs*. They debate whether millennials use the term because of these cinematic influences or if it is simply a linguistic trend they find irritating.
