I Hate Your Generation

Gen Z increasingly wonders if anything is there or, if there is, what? According to Pew, most Americans say it is not necessary to believe in God to be moral.  And the "Nones" – as in N-O-N-E-S - want nothing to do with organized religion. This episode is about "Nones" and whether religion can speak to them.  Please visit my new website, ihateyourgeneration.com, find me on Facebook at facebook.com/carollmu, or send me a tweet @carolc.

Millennials blame Boomers for their economic woes and the country’s cultural divide. Many Boomers refuse to say, “I’m sorry,” and wish Millennials would stop playing the blame game. My buddy, Michael Teasdale, a Loyola Marymount University student, and Sherrie Dunlevy, among the youngest of the Boomers, have an honest conversation about the generational blame game.  Please visit my new website, ihateyourgeneration.com, find me on Facebook at facebook.com/carollmu, or send me a tweet @carolc.

National Pride, so old-school. Why the majority of young Americans no longer believe America is exceptional.

Our political vitriol is shaping Gen-Z’s politics. And it ain’t pretty. A conversation with a 20-year old who will vote for President for the first time in November.

Taboo? How quaint. Dropping the F-bomb feels right in 2020. What other word adequately expresses the anger many Americans feel about our institutions? Everybody drops it. And, depending on your generation, the proliferate use of the word has coarsened America.

Do all Black Lives Matter? How does it feel to be a millennial Black, gay man in this BLM moment? Or a Gen X, white, gay man? Or a post-millennial woman of mixed race? This episode explores whether the Black Lives Matter movement leaves parts of the community behind.

Who are you, Xers? And why do you do what you do? Are your Boomer parents to blame? Maybe you are JUST LIKE them – on steroids? A look at Gen X beyond the Karen stereotype.

LeBron James says, “This is why we just can’t stick to sports. Now do you understand?” And thousands of athletes –across generations – do. Eli Scott, LMU’s star forward, and his Coach, Stan Johnson – both Black – talk about wielding their power, the “N-word,” and why White people need to step up.

Gen-Z is busy re-educating their parents on protests, racial justice and their biases. 19-year old Alexis SooHoo initiates a conversation with her Chinese-American, boomer dad and things get... uncomfortable.

Carol Costello talks about why she is passionate about this podcast.

We are in the midst of a generational war. Stereotyped by age. Boomers, just die already. X’ers, Karens! Millennials, entitled brats. Gen Z, ungrateful TikTok’ers. We malign one another – mercilessly. I Hate Your Generation examines why through conversation between people of different generations. No topic is taboo. Religion, politics, patriotism, marriage, religion, and morality. If you do not understand that older or younger person in the office, classroom, or in your home, this podcast is your educational tool.
