Podcasts about gen x

If you listened to radio in the 90s and early 2000s, and were into rock music, 89x was a regular stop on the dial. The blast of nostalgia of them coming back after a time as a country radio FM station on the air this week felt good as a pair of Millenials (one, an elder, on the cusp of Gen X). So we get into our favorite memories, local Detroit bands they played - from those more well known like Sponge and the veritable one-hit wonders, Charm Farm. 89x was always a platform for local music, seemingly to play more than other spots. Plus, the DJs, the Canadian Exports. All of it. And our first CDs we ever bought. Plus - Jer and Devon both went to the new Alo and have thoughts, plus the new Lunch at Olin in Downtown Detroit in our regular "Where we've been" segment, highlighting places we've actually tried or visited.  Feedback as always - dailydetroit -at- gmail -dot- com or leave a voicemail 313-789-3211.

Tomelex Copeland and Joey Svendsen represent Generation X in this first discussion of a 3-part bonus series, "Digital Detox," coinciding with the current teaching series on the weekends at Seacoast Church.  They are joined by Mena Fox and Braden Sutton, both representing Generation Z, also bringing their take on society's relationship with smartphones.  Each contributor of this discussion self-assess the health (or lack of) of their personal technology use and reflect on the current smartphone addiction rampant in society. They discuss whether culture will ever self-correct and form better practices. Tomelex and Joey reflect back on past wins and shortcomings as parents, while Mena and Braden offer helpful insight to all Generation-X parents, who were literally the "guinea pigs" of parenting through this technological boom. Even though the research shows that Gen-Z is wrought with anxiety due to smartphones, deeming them "the Anxious Generation," this addiction touches every one, even "Boomer" grandma's and grandpa's with ipads.  Be a Patron of the podcast  and support our ministry efforts in local prisons.  On this episode:"Gen-X" representation: Tomelex Copeland and Joey Svendsen "Gen-Z" representation: Mena Fox and Braden SuttonInstagram post referred to, concerning digital content and alcohol consumption RIGHT HERE.  We have a YouTube Channel for videos of all episodes since Jan. 2024.

Marc Maron, comedian and podcast trailblazer, sits down with Lovett to discuss why the left always has to be such a buzzkill, whether Americans voted for Trump purely out of annoyance, and why the armies of online trolls love to do the president's bidding. Then they discuss whether we're living in an Age of Mania, if Democrats can shut down anti-woke comedy by simply being funnier, and whether Lovett can learn to stop catastrophizing every time his calls drop.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Rob Janicke in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.robjanicke.com/ HAVE I GOT A LITTLE STORY FOR YOU...   The year was 1984. I was eleven years old and popular music was in a state of confusion. Along with songs by artists I liked such as Van Halen, Prince, Quiet Riot, Duran Duran, Billy Idol, and The Police, Top 40 radio constantly played songs from bands or artists that didn't quite do it for me. Apologies to Kenny Loggins, Phil Collins, Bananarama, Wang Chung, and Ray Parker Jr.   Due to the divorce of my parents and telling my mom that I was so unhappy that I no longer wanted to live, I was now a couple of years into therapy. It was around this time that I really began to find solace in music. The mid to late '80s gave me hope. Rap, punk rock, and alternative music befriended me at a time when I needed them the most.   A mixtape from 1989, courtesy of a high school friend, opened my soul to the music that would change my life forever- the gritty sound of grunge.   I know that this experience is not unique to me or my life. History has shown that millions of Gen X kids who were going through some heavy times in the late '80s and early '90s, found comfort in the grunge and alternative music and culture that came first from Seattle, then the world. Music can save lives; we are proof of that. This book and that sentiment is for the SLACKER in all of us. - Rob Janicke, author of Slacker

We've officially hit Peak 65, the historic moment when more Americans than ever are turning 65. But retirement in 2025 looks nothing like it used to. In this eye-opening episode of Your Money Map, Jean Chatzky sits down with generational researcher Jason Dorsey to explore how Baby Boomers, Gen Xers, and even Millennials are rethinking retirement — financially, emotionally, and socially.

Today, Fr. Gale is joined by three guests to discuss the difference between each generation and what it means for our pursuit of the faith.

I have been captivated by the concept of The In Between, that mysterious space between enduring your pain and trauma and fully moving forward. It is a place where it is easy to get stuck in familiar patterns of suffering, because they have become uncomfortably comfortable. Pain can feel like an old snugle blanket you have held onto for years and letting go feels strange, even a little like losing yourself.  But The In Between is also where transformation happens. It is where you begin to truly integrate all the tools you have learned along the way: setting boundaries, speaking up for yourself, saying no and meaning it, being gentle with yourself and leaning fully into your feelings.  It can feel scary to step into this space, but it is also so magical. It is here, in the tension between what was and what can be, that you learn to trust yourself and your healing.  Come with me as I explore this fascinating, powerful and sometimes uncomfortable place, The In Between.  linktr.ee/amyloganlife

Ed and OB's latest pod had it all: boy-band dreams, baseball fantasies, and a phrase so overused it deserves its own fan club. They dove into viral internet nonsense, debated whether a Backstreet Boys Vegas residency could change lives (spoiler: OB might start packing glitter), and mapped out big ideas for the podcast's future. Along the way, they swapped stories about Yankees–Red Sox games, catching home runs without bodily harm, and why the glory days of R-rated comedies still make today's movies look PG. Your favorite podcast about nothing returns, and—as always—the charm is that we suck. Two guys. Two mics. Two questionable takes. That's the hose, baby.

Kevin Ryan joins Bridget to discuss the ups and downs of a career in freelance writing. With AI churning out soulless content, they defend the gritty, human struggle of writing, why writing should be hard, and breaking the myth of the tortured alcoholic writer. They cover why everyone should have some revolutionary instincts in their 20s, why the loss of trust in media might be healthy, how the center has become so centerless, why some of Kevin's favorite philosophers and writers are critical theorists and post-modernists, how the Left became the Right and the Right became the Left, why journalism should still have gatekeepers, Gen X's moment in the sun, how to give kids the value and thoughtfulness they deserve, and how Bridget became the Forrest Gump of the culture wars.Sponsor Links: - Quest offers 100+ lab tests to empower you to have more control over your health journey.

Dual Takeaway:This episode is a two-for-one: inspiration for escaping corporate and practical fitness guidance for living longer, stronger, and on your own terms.What happens when you realize corporate life just isn't for you—before it consumes decades of your career? Greg Bogdanski found out early. After stints in investment banking and consumer goods, Greg walked away to follow his lifelong passion for health and fitness. Today, he runs a growing training facility in Tennessee, helping athletes and adults build strength, resilience, and confidence.In this conversation, Greg shares the lessons he learned from leaving corporate early, the challenges of opening a gym from scratch, and how fitness principles apply to GenX escapees looking for longevity and freedom.We discuss: • Why Greg knew corporate wasn't his long-term path • How he turned a side passion into a business—starting with training kids in a park • The role of experimentation and iteration when launching something new • Marketing strategies that are working for small gyms today (Instagram, Facebook, email) • The importance of play, movement, and mental resilience for kids (and adults) • Fitness and longevity tips for GenXers: • Why walking is the most underrated exercise • How to structure a simple 3-day strength training plan • The 80/20 approach to cardio and nutrition • Why building a plan—whether in business or fitness—is the key to freedomConnect with Greg: • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greg_bogdanski_iii/ • https://www.instagram.com/peak_performancetraining_tn/

More Americans in their 50s, 60s, and beyond are starting businesses than ever before—but they're also facing new, mounting challenges. In this episode of Friends Talk Money, we unpack what's fueling this surge in encore entrepreneurship and how recent policy shifts—especially cuts to the Small Business Administration (SBA) and new trade barriers—are making it harder for older founders to succeed. Special guest Hedy Ratner, co-founder of the Women's Business Development Center, joins us to discuss how older entrepreneurs, particularly women and minorities, are being affected. We cover: Why older Americans are launching businesses in record numbers How Trump-era policy changes are shrinking access to critical SBA support Why tariffs and trade policy shifts are squeezing small business margins What this means for women-, minority-, and veteran-owned businesses What encore entrepreneurs need to do now to protect and grow their ventures If you're starting or running a small business later in life, you'll want to hear what's changing—and what resources are still out there to help you thrive.   Links: Women's Business Development Center (WBDC) SCORE Small Business Administration (SBA) Most boomers and Gen X-ers are terrified about running out of money in retirement — even if they're already retired (Marketwatch)  

In this conversation, we explore the shifts in human experience with Christine Rosen, senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and author of "The Extinction of Experience: Being Human in a Disembodied World." As a member of the "hybrid generation" of Gen X, Christine (like us) brings the perspective of having lived through the transition from an analog to a digital world and witnessed firsthand what we've gained and lost in the process.Christine frames our current moment through the lens of what naturalist Robert Michael Pyle called "the extinction of experience"—the idea that when something disappears from our environment, subsequent generations don't even know to mourn its absence. Drawing on over 20 years of studying technology's impact on human behavior, she argues that we're experiencing a mass migration from direct to mediated experience, often without recognizing the qualitative differences between them.Key themes we explore:The Archaeology of Lost Skills: How the abandonment of handwriting reveals the broader pattern of discarding embodied cognition—the physical practices that shape how we think, remember, and process the world around usMediation as Default: Why our increasing reliance on screens to understand experience is fundamentally different from direct engagement, and how this shift affects our ability to read emotions, tolerate friction, and navigate uncomfortable social situationsThe Machine Logic of Relationships: How technology companies treat our emotions "like the law used to treat wives as property"—as something to be controlled, optimized, and made efficient rather than experienced in their full complexityEmbodied Resistance: Why skills like cursive handwriting, face-to-face conversation, and the ability to sit with uncomfortable emotions aren't nostalgic indulgences but essential human capacities that require active preservationThe Keyboard Metaphor: How our technological interfaces—with their control buttons, delete keys, and escape commands—are reshaping our expectations for human relationships and emotional experiencesChristine challenges the Silicon Valley orthodoxy that frames every technological advancement as inevitable progress, instead advocating for what she calls "defending the human." This isn't a Luddite rejection of technology but a call for conscious choice about what we preserve, what we abandon, and what we allow machines to optimize out of existence.The conversation reveals how seemingly small decisions—choosing to handwrite a letter, putting phones in the center of the table during dinner, or learning to read cursive—become acts of resistance against a broader cultural shift toward treating humans as inefficient machines in need of optimization. As Christine observes, we're creating a world where the people designing our technological future live with "human nannies and human tutors and human massage therapists" while prescribing AI substitutes for everyone else.What emerges is both a warning and a manifesto: that preserving human experience requires actively choosing friction, inefficiency, and the irreducible messiness of being embodied creatures in a physical world. Christine's work serves as an essential field guide for navigating the tension between technological capability and human flourishing—showing us how to embrace useful innovations while defending the experiences that make us most fully human.About Christine Rosen: Christine Rosen is a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, where she focuses on the intersection of technology, culture, and society.

Send us a textJust what in the world was an Amphicar? What were some of the first sports video games? What are some of the best instrumental songs ever? Episode 208 answers these and other questions in your weekly dose of Gen-X nostalgia. It kicks off with a unique mode of transportation. Is it a car? Is it a boat? How about both? The Amphicar took both land and sea travel and wrapped them up into a less-than-spectacular package. A novelty. An oddity. We'll go back to the 1960s to discuss just what in the world was up with this vehicle.The world of Madden Football wouldn't exist without these trailblazers. We will go back to the early days to reminisce about the first sports video games and how they influenced future landmark titles. Low resolution and simple gameplay aplenty. Sometimes you don't need to say a word to get your point across. On this week's Top 5 we will look at some of the best instrumental songs of all time.

This week, we dive into Gregg Araki's The Doom Generation (1995), a neon-soaked, blood-splattered road movie that's equal parts satire, nightmare, and Gen X fever dream. Following the nihilistic trio of Jordan, Amy, and Xavier as they spiral through a world of violence, sex, and black humor, Araki crafts a brutal portrait of lost youth at the edge of America's cultural meltdown.We unpack the film's shocking violence, its biting commentary on consumerism and morality, and how it fits within Araki's “Teenage Apocalypse Trilogy.” From its campy dialogue to its disturbing finale, we ask: is The Doom Generation pure provocation, or does it reveal something deeper about identity, alienation, and the rage of a generation?If you're ready to confront a film that MTV once called “the first true Gen X movie,” buckle up—this ride is messy, grotesque, and unforgettable.Show E-Mail: cultcinemacircle@gmail.comFollow Bobby on InstagramFollow Cult Cinema Circle on Instagram, Bluesky, and Letterboxd Hosted on Acast.

We are so excited because this week we sit down with the fabulous Stacy London (yes, that Stacy London!) for some fashion therapy. Stacy London became a household name from the show What Not to Wear, but now she has now given us permission to toss the “rules” and wear whatever the heck we want. We talked about everything from Gen X “uniforms” (hello quarter-zips and yoga pants) to how our bodies shift in midlife and leave us without a style identity. Stacy reminds us that middle age isn't an expiration date—it's a renaissance. And fashion, at its best, is less about rules and more about joy and compassion for ourselves. (I told you it was fashion therapy.) Ps. Check out her new show Wear Whatever the F You Want with Clinton Kelly on Amazon Prime! It's great!And because it wouldn't be our podcast without a little detour, you'll also hear an original song dedicated to Stacy and a hilarious debate about what to call you—our listeners. (Are you Laugh Liners? Laughables? The Laugh Pack? We need your vote.) If you've ever felt stuck in a fashion rut or not sure what shade lavender is (ahem, Penn) this episode is for you.

Ten years ago, at the launch of Vogue Runway, there were a series of articles published about the '90s. Sarah Mower contributed a piece on the lasting impact of Helmut Lang, Lynn Yaeger penned an ode to grunge, and Luke Leitch shared his recollections of the decade's menswear (shout-out for warehouse-sale Maharishi!). A quick survey of the fall 2025 trends includes both 1980s Working Girl chic and aughts-era indie sleaze. But the '90s reign supreme, and with incoming creative directors at Gucci, Versace, and Maison Margiela, three brands at their It-est in those years, the '90s aren't going anywhere anytime soon.On today's episode of Vogue's Run-Through podcast, Mark Holgate, Luke Leitch, and Nicole Phelps—proud Gen X-ers—discuss the persistence of the '90s phenomenon and make the case for a new kind of futurism.

DeWayne “Crews Control” went from stay-at-home dad to viral conservative voice almost overnight—thanks to an unexpected boost from Elon Musk. In this episode of the Chicks on the Right podcast, Daisy and Mock sit down with the man behind the camera to talk about his rise to online fame, his Gen X-meets-millennial worldview, and why common sense keeps getting him labeled a “conservative” (whether he claims the label or not). They cover everything from his Georgia roots and military brat upbringing to the day he decided to finally hit “record,” how he handles haters, and the formula he uses to make his videos hit so hard. Plus—why stereotypes about what a conservative “should” look like are completely wrong, and how creators like Crews Control are changing the conversation. Follow Cruise Control:
