GenX Stories

Send a FanMail to the GenX Stories gang via text message! It's spooky season, and the Gen X Stories podcast crew is digging into horror movies and every creepy sub-genre. The ones we grew up with. The ones we're watching now. And, honestly, WHY DO WE DO THIS to ourselves? Oh, and our guest is the producer of the Final Destination movies (and married to one of us). You'll have to listen to find out how deep his horror knowledge goes. With Halloween creeping closer, we get into what it takes to...

Send a FanMail to the GenX Stories gang via text message! Apparently GenX Women are "Queenagers" now. Oh HELL, no.

Oh, and potential equipment damage. Pour yourself something tasty & press play. You know how this go...

Send a FanMail to the GenX Stories gang via text message! Creativity peaking in your 50s more than your 20s? Yup, that tracks. This episode digs into what that actually looks like and it's got nothing to do with taking a pottery class or learning how to square dance. (again.). You know that we rarely do guests on the show BUT when a fellow Gen Xer (Laura LeBleu) channels her creativity into a gorgeous, 90+ page, three-times-a-year print magazine - for us, by us - we make an exception.
