The Adults cast has done it all. They've fought raccoons, hosted chaotic dinner parties, and starred in memorable will-they-won't-they romances. But can they conquer real-life adulthood?

In a Say More interview with Mashable Entertainment Reporter Belen Edwards, Adults stars Malik Elassal, Lucy Freyer, Jack Innanen, Amita Rao, and Owen Thiele answered some of Mashable staffers' most pressing questions about becoming an adult. What's a Roth IRA? (And will it hurt us?) How do we responsibly buy groceries? And what's the most childish thing we can still spend our adult money on?

Come for their advice — sometimes sage, sometimes silly — and leave knowing far more about one of TV's most charming ensembles. Who wants to name their child Roomba? Who is "potassium-maxxxing"? Who has the fridge of a serial killer?

Find out in the video above, then stick around to hear the cast dig into Season 2, from revealing their favorite parts of the Adults house set to breaking down fans' reactions to beloved ships.

Adults Season 2 is now streaming on Hulu.
