Podcasts about gen x

While Brian frolics somewhere in the Pacific Northwest, Jason brings in cyber-sleuth Dave Bittner for a jam-packed episode covering everything from Gen X's slow descent into obscurity to furries, feds, and face-scanning your way into porn. The guys start with a salute to the late, great Tom Lehrer—a math nerd with a piano and zero tolerance for BS—before diving into the avalanche of cyber screwups plaguing today's digital circus.The biggest spill? The so-called “safe” dating app Tea just doxxed its entire user base—because who needs privacy when you've got bad Firebase settings from 2017? Meanwhile, teens are befriending chatbots, Microsoft is issuing pink slips via PowerPoint, and Meta might be training its AI on stolen porn. Add in farmers installing turnstiles in the Dolomites to keep influencers off their grass, age verification laws that Norman Reedus can bypass with a JPEG, and Tesla diners turning into 24/7 neighbor hellscapes, and yeah—it's just another week on the internet.If you're a Gen Xer feeling invisible, underpaid, and over it, congrats—you're not alone. This episode is a full buffet of schadenfreude, digital paranoia, and good old-fashioned grump. Pour a cup of whatever's not boiling, and tune in for the roast. Tom Lehrer would've approved.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Head over to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use the code "GOG" for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Literary It girl Caroline Calloway joins Erin Hosier and Elizabeth Thompson to talk about her father's tragic suicide amidst her viral public shaming in 2019, her obsession with the late Prozac Nation memoirist and Gen X agent of chaos Elizabeth Wurtzel (who Erin knew well as EW's first assistant in 1999), and the generational legacies left by their unknowable fathers (particularly Wurtzel's secret bio dad Bob Adelman). Caroline interviews Erin about the making of Wurtzel's 2001 advice book, Radical Sanity - which is the inspiration for Caroline's latest - and the three discuss the fallout of the daddy issues complicated women inherit from complicated men. [1:00–12:00] Becoming Caroline CallowayThe rise of Caroline's Instagram-era fame, her viral captions, and the internet culture that turned her into a lightning rod.

SOSS opens up this week with a traumatic dog story and a tribute to Chuck Mangione. Gen X lost a lot of big names this week…Ozzy Osbourne, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Hulk Hogan. Amy and Maya relive The Osbournes TV show. Amy rescues a kid from drowning in a pool. She's always ready to jump into action to save a life. The ladies give you the inside scoop on the MN Yacht Club Festival with some “live” on-the-scene reporting. They take you on a tour through the music, fashion, and food at Minnesota's newest music festival. Pro Tip: Just get the corndog. Always get the corndog. Never get the egg roll. The ladies recap performances by Sheryl Crow, Father John Misty, Alabama Shakes, Train, and Hozier. One performer is unexpectedly a big snooze, and one is a walking streak of sex, converting throngs of followers in real time. The ladies ask the question, why don't the kids dance anymore? The gals encounter a strange phenomenon that Amy classifies as “Meet Up” behavior. Maya doesn't know the difference between Skol and Skoal. IYKYK. FOMO for the Sunday lineup is real. Learn about the best festival exit strategy ever.

This week on the Daly Dose, we reviewed another summer “sports” movie, and it has been a very rough week for Gen X'ers with the losses of Ryne Sandberg, Hulk Hogan and Ozzy Osbourne. The University of Michigan has some big scheduling news that has us confused and Lebron James is sending out cease and desist letters and we are hoping one doesn't arrive for us anytime soon!Then, with the college football season coming quickly, we count down the Top 10 college football quarterbacks going into this season! Who makes our list and who will get left off?Finally, every year the NFL ignores the game tape of so many quarterbacks and instead chooses to rely on traits that might not be as important! Today our Daly Dose Top 5 counts down the NFL quarterbacks that had the largest hands in history!   

Before we look ahead to a rapidly-approaching 2025 football season, a look back — over beers and with a background of classic country music at the Gateway Lounge, of course — at pop culture titans from our youth who left us this past week.Gen X'ers John Gaskins and Matt Zimmer put the latest local sports buzz on hold for a bit to reminisce about the essence of Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Famer Ozzy Osborne, Baseball Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg, WWE GOAT Hulk Hogan, and "Cosby Show" heart throb Malcolm Jamal-Warner (Theo Huxtable). They all died this past week, and their legacies are all in the wheelhouse of the two hosts.John and Zim next look back on last week's MVFC Media Days. Zim's biggest takeaway was the response and tone of North Dakota State head coach Tim Polasek regarding one particular touchy topic affecting all FCS teams in 2025. Plus, what do we make of the health of the league, with a currently clear two-tier system — The Big 3 of NDSU, SDSU, and USD... and then everyone else?Then, a look back at the short-lived but memorable tenure of South Dakota State running back Nate White, the Wisconson transfer who made an instant impact on the practice field and instant friends in the locker room before his tragic death in his sleep at the age of 20 last month.White's now-well-documented happy time in Brookings is a testament to the culture fostered within the Jackrabbit program over the last 20 years, a feature also well-established with the Sioux Falls Canaries. While "culture" and "family" are attainable cliches in prep and college sports, they are difficult to come by in minor league baseball. But the Birds clearly have it with manager Mike Meyer in a season that is escalating into a bonfire of big offense and big wins. How and why did the inferno grow?Finally, now that it is obvious the Minnesota Twins aren't championship contenders, what moves should the front office make for an organization that is for sale, but not in the bottom of the barrel? 

Hello and welcome to episode 107 of the Still Spinning Podcast. Don't forget, you can watch the live taping most Mondays at 7 PM on Facebook, YouTube or Instagram OR wait until the official podcast release on Wednesday morning. Visit your usual podcast subscription service to add us to your list. Visit our website for more details on becoming a sponsor and buying merch. All of this at stillspinningpodcast.com. It was a tough week for Gen X kids, those of us who grew up in the 80's. We lost some BIG names in the past week and Dan and Nicole discuss the losses, the lives and how it feels as though celebrity deaths are getting closer and closer to us. RIP Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Hulk Hogan and Ozzy Osbourne.  A recent American Airlines flight had to evacuate the passengers via the slide and of course there is video. Side note, is there ANYTHING happening in the world that is not being captured on video?? Ah the “joys” of 2025. Anyhoodle, Dan has some thoughts on the evacuation and some issues that no one is really talking about. This leads to a whole discussion on if Dan and Nicole would help in this kind of situation (spoiler, the answer is yes) AND how Dan would run things.  There is a town in France who wants tourists to PUT ON THEIR CLOTHES. Topless-ness is an issue for both men and women in this town and they are sick of it. Cover it up folks! Nicole was recently in Moline and saw a person with no shoes walking all over. It is a whole vibe and discussion on the podcast this week.  The live recording is OFF for next week (August 4th) as Nicole will be at the Wisconsin State Fair (aka her happy place) but there will be a regular episode release on Wednesday as well as some bonus content for the Spinners this Friday AND next! Have a great week everyone and thanks for joining us!

What'cha gonna do, Slackers!?Another icon of Gen X's childhood has passed away. This time "The Immortal" Hulk Hogan. While Hogan's passing has garnered plenty of social media attention, I would rather focus much of the podcast on his wrestling career.Like many, Hogan was THE superstar that made kids become wrestling fans. Hulkster cartoons, toys, and WrestleMania pay-per-views were all in high demand in the 1980's. He was the 'Real American" and the top draw of his era. After a decade "on top' as the ultimate baby face, he stunned the world again by becoming the top heel in WCW as part of the NWO.If you were a wrestling fan, Hogan bridged the gap between our childhood hero worship and our cynical young adulthood by becoming the bad guy. Same guy, two entirely different styles. It was an amazing time for the wrestling business.While I don't shy away from his personal failures, I think that his persona onscreen and the man he may or may not have been offscreen can and should be separated.Not to be forgotten, Malcolm Jamal Warner, one of ours, and by all accounts a stand up guy, tragically lost his life in an accident in Costa Rica, will also be remembered this week. I have a story from High School in which "Theo" played a primary part.

HR expert Marcia Homer discusses the workplace dynamics between Gen X managers and Gen Z employees. She explains how different generational upbringings create workplace conflicts - Gen X grew up as independent "latchkey kids" while Gen Z is the most connected and supervised generation ever. Homer emphasizes that Gen Z isn't lazy but wants to work differently, seeking purpose, flexibility, and growth over grinding. The solution lies in improved communication, patience, and non-judgmental curiosity from all generations. TAKEAWAYS Different upbringings create conflict: Gen X developed independence while Gen Z grew up highly supervised and digitally connected Gen Z seeks purpose over burnout: They want meaningful work, flexibility, and regular feedback rather than grinding for status Communication is key: Success requires patience, clear expectations, and non-judgmental curiosity from all generations [00:38] - How Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z grew up differently [01:06] - Gen X as "latchkey kids" - independent, unsupervised upbringing [02:30] - Gen X values: resilience, "suck it up" mentality, separating work and personal life [04:26] - Gen Z as most connected and supervised generation ever [04:56] - Impact of major events on Gen Z: 9/11, 2008 crisis, climate change, COVID [06:28] - Workplace conflicts between Gen X managers and Gen Z employees [10:45] - COVID's impact on workplace dynamics and remote work shift [11:22] - Debunking the "Gen Z is lazy" myth [11:53] - What Gen Z actually wants: purpose, flexibility, growth over grind [13:26] - The positive shift Gen Z brings to workplace conversations [14:44] - Advice for Gen Z: slow down and learn the rules of the game first [16:55] - Gen Z prefers real-time feedback over annual performance reviews [19:04] - Gen Z tendency to overshare personal information at work [21:05] - Gen Z's digital tool proficiency and time management skills [22:57] - Career development conversations with Gen Z [25:28] - The core solution: better communication and psychological safety [27:24] - Approaching conflicts with "non-judgmental curiosity" [29:11] - Communicating across multiple generations as a senior leader [31:56] - Key motivators for Gen Z retention and engagement [34:22] - Skills leaders need for 2030 workforce dominated by Gen Z [36:34] - Resources: "Play the Game" book and GenZWorkplaceFixes.com A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST Podcast: Transform Your Workplace, sponsored by Xenium HR Host: Brandon Laws In Brandon's own words: “The Transform Your Workplace podcast is your go-to source for the latest workplace trends, big ideas, and time-tested methods straight from the mouths of industry experts and respected thought-leaders.” About Xenium HR Xenium HR is on a mission to transform workplaces by providing expert outsourced HR and payroll services for small and medium-sized businesses.

New religious data in the United States was released recently, and Ryan Burge joins the show with Sam to discuss the details. In 2024, Gen Z showed relatively strong religious attendance compared to other generations. Twenty-four percent of Gen Z reported attending religious services weekly—two percentage points higher than both Millennials and Gen X. While 53% of Gen Z attend less than once a year, that's actually the lowest percentage of infrequent attenders among all the generations analyzed. The post The Burge Report: Is Gen Z More Religiously Engaged than Their Parents? appeared first on Church Answers.

What if the life you really want is waiting on the other side of your comfort zone? In this inspiring episode, I sit down with Tabatha Jones, aka The Corporate Escape Sherpa™, who walked away from a thriving 20-year tech career in Corporate America at 50—and never looked back. Now, she helps high-achieving Gen-X women break free from careers they've outgrown and step boldly into entrepreneurship without burning it all down. We talk about the fears that keep women stuck in jobs they no longer love, the myths of midlife reinvention, and the strategic steps you can take to build a business before leaving your 9–5. In this episode: 

If you’re navigating retirement planning in Australia, this episode is a must-listen. Financial adviser James Wrigley joins The Elephant in the Room to unpack the strategies that high-income earners, Gen X professionals, and aspiring retirees can use to build a more secure financial future, without falling into the usual traps. From maximising tax returns through superannuation to understanding why property may not be the most reliable retirement asset, James breaks down complex concepts into actionable steps. You’ll learn how super could grow from $300K to $2M, when and how to use catch-up contributions, and why liquidity and access might be more important than you think. This episode challenges the idea that you need to be “a property person” or “a shares person” and instead offers a mindset shift: invest based on outcomes, not identity. Whether you’re in your 40s and just starting to take your future seriously, or you’re closing in on retirement, this conversation will change the way you think about your money.

Finally, he backs DPS Commissioner Sean Tindle against Ivanna Williams' allegations, stressing accountability and cleaning up the force.

Nancy Rommelmann returns to Walk-Ins Welcome fresh from reporting on ICE raids for Reason Magazine. She and Bridget discuss LA's unprecedented triple crisis—immigration crackdowns, devastating wildfires, and Hollywood's exodus—and what might be next for the city, which leads to the larger question of whether America itself is resetting. They cover why Gen Z might be our saving grace, the return to real-world connections (cooking, gardening, live events, dinner parties) as an antidote to digital decay, why they still believe in Americans, why Gen X is the only generation still partying, and why you should always use the good soap. Sponsor Links: - Quest offers 100+ lab tests to empower you to have more control over your health journey.

Our July episode has host and gerontologist, Sherri Snelling, talking with Saudia Gajadhar, Chief Happiness Officer at Comfort Keepers about this year's National Day of Joy survey among older adults and family caregivers and Comfort Keepers' role in the new PBS documentary, “Caregiving.” In CAREGIVER WELLNESS NEWS, Sherri shares the latest stats to highlight July's National Sandwich Generation Month as well as global wellness hacks for International Self-Care Day (July 24). She also talks about a new habit-stacking wellness trend for older women who care caregiving: how “rucking” is the new “walking.” And a new study shows the significant stress burden on caregivers of those with dementia or Alzheimer's who wander. As an intro to the interview with Saudia, Sherri shares the difference between happiness vs. joy from her book, ME TIME MONDAY. In our WELL HOME DESIGN NEWS, Sherri focuses on the financial wellness challenges for the Sandwich Generation including a recent Edward Jones survey showing Sandwich Generation caregivers need more education from financial advisor about long-term care costs; and the actual monetary responsibility many Gen X, Millennials and older Gen Z are taking on caring for children and older parents at the same time. Sherri also shares the topics from the July “Self-Care in 7 Minutes” videos found on the Caregiving Club YouTube channel: Caregiver Bill of Rights, How Alice in Wonderland Helps Caregivers Build Resiliency, 10 Global Wellness Hacks for International Self-Care Day, How the Sandwich Generation Can Build Social Wellness.

For most of Gen Z, they've only known a world with smartphones and tap-to-pay. Therefore, they are reinventing the wheel and taking concepts from an analog society. Gen Z has turned to only using cash and adopting the concept of "dumb phones," presenting it as a fresh new concept.  Kennedy lays down the law and gives her reasons as to why Gen X will forever be the best.  Follow Kennedy on Twitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@KennedyNation⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠   Kennedy Now Available on YouTube: ⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://link.chtbl.com/kennedyytp⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow on TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@kennedy_foxnews⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join Kennedy for Happy Hour on Fridays! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWlNiiSXX4BNUbXM5X8KkYbDepFgUIVZj⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

This week on Laugh Lines, we let a very special guest take the mic. Our 15-year-old son, PC Holderness! (And y'all… he did not disappoint.) PC came ready to host games and answer questions from parents on the Laugh Line, all with his signature optimism and cowboy hat… obviously. From prank calls and dial-up internet to egg babies and snap streaks, we put our generations head-to-head to find out who had it harder, “Gen X or Gen Z?” We also take your hilarious voicemails and ask PC what Gen Z considers cringe: Is dancing with your hands in the air too much? What exactly does a 'pick me' mean? And is singing "Living On A Prayer" before the intro is over a crime? Big thanks to PC for joining us. He's kind, thoughtful, and somehow manages to hype up Gen X moms while still defending his own generation's challenges (hey, he knows who listens to these shows!) You do not want to miss this one—it's proof that parenting a teenager can be fun, educational, and humbling all at the same time.

On the horizon: a new liberal-center manosphere, yearning to reach out to the young men poached by Trumpism, but offering what, exactly?  Professor Scott Galloway and Anthony Scaramucci are earnest and charming in their way, and they have Trump's number. But with their new project, Lost Boys podcast, they're stuck in a paradox. They know enough to admit that the capitalist logic that made them both multi-millionaires is fickle, cruel, and misogynist. They know it's beating up everyone, including young men. But they can't imagine any other way of organizing society. So what do they offer? Nostalgia for the 1980s, self-help tips. In this two-part series, Matthew looks at why the Lost Boys project is deceptively attractive. Liberal, libertarian, or even reactionary parenting can affect an earnest emotional bond through overtones of spiritual honesty. But all the empathy is impotent when it defaults into an apologetics for the very systems that make us suffer.  Part One looks at the overall liberal manosphere politics of Lost Boys, including the evidentiary claims put forward by their premier guest Richard Reeves, who Galloway calls his “Yoda” on the subject of how men are doing these days. Part Two goes into a granular reading of Episode 7 of Lost Boys, where the guest is Deirdre Scaramucci, Anthony's partner. Together, the trio discloses a ton about their ambivalent GenX childhoods and their current parenting experience, including how they rationalize losing emotional control.

You shouldn't have to choose between showing up for your job and showing up for your family and loved ones. Caregiving is a growing part of modern work life — and it's largely invisible. In today's episode of Hello Monday, host Jessi Hempel talks with Jennifer Levin, author of Generation Care, about what it means to care for others while juggling a career, and how we can better support caregivers at work and beyond. Jennifer began caregiving for her chronically ill father in her early thirties, long before her peers were navigating similar responsibilities. Struck by how few people were talking about it, she created Caregiver Collective, a Facebook group for Millennial and Gen X caregivers. Her new book, gives voice to a generation of caretakers, and confronts the increasingly urgent crisis of caretaking in the U.S. Jessi and Jennifer discuss: • The emotional toll of caregiving and why so many of us feel alone in it • Why caregiving should be treated as real, valuable work • How to support colleagues who are quietly balancing care responsibilities • Why policy change must recognize caregiving as core to the future of work • How managers and leaders can create cultures that acknowledge and support caregiving • The power of talking about caregiving — with friends, with employers, and in public This episode is for anyone who's ever whispered, I'm sandwiching today. Whether you're deep in it now or likely to take on a caregiving role in the future, this conversation offers clarity, comfort, and community. Continue the conversation at Hello Monday Office Hours. Join Jessi and Senior Producer Sarah Storm this Wednesday at 3PM ET on the LinkedIn News page to talk about caregiving, trade-offs, and what support really looks like in today's workplace.
