GenHerations

AFTER ALMOST 3 LONG DULL YEARS - THE WOMEN OF MATZAH AND MELANIN ARE BACK!! From happiness to tragedy we run the gamut of life updates as we embrace the reboot you've all been asking for!

We’ve really enjoyed coming into your homes, cars, offices, toilets, or wherever it was that you found us, but for me, it’s time to say goodbye.  Thank you for listening, enjoying, not enjoying, yelling, laughing, crying or whatever you did with us for the past year and a half - we appreciate you.  We hope you like our grand finale.  Much Love, Heidi and the entire Matzah and Melanin team.

In celebration of our men!!  We start by interviewing our very own engineer Brian San Marco and Robin & Brian's two beautiful boys Theo and Emery.  They’ve all had to listen to us for over a year and we finally let them have some air time.  It’s both adorable and enlightening.

If you could change one thing about yourself what would it be?  Is it because you hate it or did society make you hate it? The ladies take a deep dive into their own womanhood, what it means to look perfect, and why it’s not okay to call someone out for not wearing lipstick!!

Sure there’s a pandemic happening but that isn’t stopping the ladies from making some big moves.  From starting your own YouTube channel to first time home buying - the ladies are on the move and all have some great advice about how to set goals and get what you want.  Plus, what the hell is going on with this country, the election, and half of America's refusal to understand that Joe Biden will be number 46.

But is it a scary old number?  What age do you consider old? Plus, the ladies weigh in on the end of Quibi, the nastiest host of The Real, why Heidi buried her weed in the backyard and why none of the ladies know the word PROVERB.

Is social media ruining the world? The good the bad and the ugly side of social media. How billions of people are affected by it - what it’s like to date someone not on it and how to raise kids without it!!          

It’s a little post debate wrap from our Fab Four about the insanity that unfolded last Monday. Plus catch up on all things dating, mating and celebrating!

Lucky for you loyal listeners - Heidi has decided to go on dates just for you.  This week you get to hear what it’s like to date a woman who has no idea how to date. From the “I want to do you” guy to the “aggressive texter” and some pure gossip about Jeremy Piven - it's a little happy , a little sad, a little judgmental and pure comedy.   

We’re tapping into our higher beings with a little help from Mindfulness, Meditation and Metaphysical teacher Laura Saltman.  Get some tips on how to get happy and find out how you can get your own tarot reading from Laura. 

The trash talk of our past jobs continues…. Who else was a Horrible Boss?  More names get named plus we talk dressing sexy and the P word… how women should dress… and why we need to take back the PUSSY. 

This week we have a guest on the show - and it gets a little Jerry Springer.  Janay gets called out by the friend she called a bitch, Ricki Lake gets called out for being a bitch and Heidi has a breakdown about turning sixty.  Lord, its a nutty episode.    

Ride or die or say goodbye?  What are your relationships like with your best girlfriends?  The women explore friendships, how they differ from your twenties to your fifties and how to know who to trust with your darkest secrets. 

What started as us naming names of those who have wronged us in the past - led us to dive deep into cancel culture and explain why we are driven to say things like “dude stop sucking Trump's dick” to total strangers.  But do we cancel?  Is it because it's the only way to get America to hear us?  Or because we love the thrill of the “delete.”? You be the judge after you listen to this weeks pod.

We may have a whole new name but we’ve got the same authentic attitude.  This week - calling out all bad bosses.  We’re mad as hell and we’re not going to take it anymore. From shit wages to shit fearful leaders, what we’ve all been through - racially - generationally - in the workplace.  Micro aggressions and plain old harassment - we’re naming names and discussing how to change your own horrible boss job.  

Cookies, Taylor Swift, Ellen, and I May Destroy You.  All topics covered, dissected, shredded, broken down, screamed about , and tossed away on this episode.  The ladies sound off on all things pop culture and all things they popped off on - this week.

We’re still here!! Still recording on Zoom!! Still bringing you our fresh, bold, introspective options about life in quarantine.  What we’ll never go back to.  How we feel about the future.  What we’ll never do again.  All four generations weigh in on what’s new and what’s next.  Also - the first time you hear the phrase… toxic positivity.

Here we are in week ten billion of quarantine and we have breaking news - we’re still pissed about everything.  How mercury in retrograde gave us all car troubles and money troubles and how each genHERation deals with the dollar bills. Plus - Jasmine’s new found viral fame.  Janay gets a very important I Love You.  Robin tries to get all of us to understand the reality of CoVid and well Heidi is just screaming about everything.  We also get very real about just how hard it is to WORK FROM HOME.

The death of George Floyd erupted in protests this past week as people of all races flooded the streets in the name of Black Lives Matter. This week we offer a few thoughts on that, on how our podcast deals with our own race issues, why white influencers are being called out, and how Janay and Jasmine feel as black women - about finally seeing white people stand up and say NO MORE.

It’s difficult to know what to do sometimes when things happen in our country that are shameful go unpunished . We must stop killing our black brothers. Entertainment Tonight host Kevin Frazier tells us what he thinks is important for all people to do right now. Get smarter and know your history.

Can you fulfill your dreams and make money?  We break down the biggest fears of the corona virus - can you keep your dreams alive without being devastated financially from the pandemic?  Are you even following your dream job or just making money? For one of us - things just got very real.  The tears and fears of making money and not giving upon what you really want.  Lessons from through the decades of how to lose and how to keep your dreams and your pot of gold alive.

If a guy told you - you f--k like a porn star would you like it?  Would a swimming pool make you stop wanting to murder your children? And why Heidi really is just your average jewish mother.  That’s just the tip of the iceberg on this week's episode of Genherations from Quarantine.  Our audio might not be exactly the same but the conversation is just as bizarre and engaging as always. 

After letting all of our hairs down and revealing who ghosted us and how it felt - we decided - we needed more Ghosting Stories.  Tune in to part two and listen to a sample of our favorite new game “That’s Problematic.”  It’s real, it’s racial, and it’s all you need to get through the quarantine.  Plus Janay does her best White Guy imitation.  That itself is worth the "free" price of admission.

Day drinking, pot smoking, a lot of sex, and some tears... Want to know what your Geherational Podcasters Have been up to? AND then the rest.

Girl, you ever been ghosted?  Of course you have - who hasn’t? We may be forced not to see each other now - but pre pandemic we’ve all been peaced out on without even so much as a post it note. Don’t miss our ghost stories.

In honor of Super Tuesday, we are back with part two of our entertaining and informative discussion about the current state of the democratic race for a presidential nominee.  Actress and activist Aimee Carrero debriefs us on what matters most, who’s fighting for what, and why your voice matters.

It’s time to bring in an expert and Aimee Carrero helps our four women get their politics in order.  A fresh voice in the mess that is the democratic election and our country’s backwards system - Aimee takes us inside what really matters - especially to people of color.  She walks the walk and talks the talk and it’s all pretty damn funny.
