This week was our final regular episode and it also had to be very quick due to a medical emergency!! We quickly discussed some predictions we had regarding two areas that are mentioned highly on this show (politics and social media) and discussed Gen Alpha and the Metaverse along the way. We also briefly discuss our Dirty Rotten origin story.

This week we sat down to talk about how ages and generations are often confused, and how certain "trends" may be a facade because of this. We also discuss what we think has "stuck" to certain generations, why generations develop in certain ways, our predictions for what will define Generation Alpha and so much more!

After a short break, we are back to discuss how newer social media platforms seems to have more substance than the Instagram scroll. We discuss how everything is trying to be TikTok, how Gen Z's and alphas are done with the negativity and how so many people keep getting away with blatant lying on the Internet, along with much much more.

This week we sat down to talk about how much easier it is to change parts of your life for younger generations but also confront the continued unwillingness to do so.

This week we sat down to talk about how generations are playing into the 2021 Canadian Election. We have previously discussed Canaidna Elections in a 2019 episode, Episode 12. We discussed the Conservatives shift towards the centre, the PPC rising in the polls and question just how Justin Trudeau thought nobody would question his motives behind calling an election.

We are back this week to discuss a conversation Jonah had with an old woman on a plane. We discuss if millennials (and Gen Z/X to a lesser extent) are just really loud about their hobbies, a bunch of trend chasers, or an ugly mix of both. We also discuss how outdoorsy millennials are, how hard it is to get a good family photo and how the real truth comes out in text messages.

This week we sat down to talk about community and how our thoughts have changed since we last discussed it in length (Episode 18, which will come back at some point). We discuss how our perceptions of communities moving online have changed, how we think in-person community will remain strong and the pros and cons of these shifts, along with so much more!

As mentioned in the episode, we will be taking a short hiatus! We will be back soon enough with more DRM for everyone though! Until then, take care :)
This week we sat down to talk about sub-sections of different generations. We ponder whether this is just another label people are looking to find, how it relates to community and why TikTok has helped immensely. We also discuss who really decides what a generation is all about.

This week we sat down to discuss burnout amongst all generations and how it varies in how it presents itself. We talk about millennials being burnt out for life, the lack of regular burnout coping mechanisms due to lockdowns and how older generations may not act on burnout and simply ride it out (among many other topics!).

This week we sat down to discuss a highly divisive platform: Twitter. Jonah makes a prediction about its longevity, we discuss where Twitter fits and wonder if it has peaked. We also discuss how we think Reddit may be poised to be everything Twitter fails to be.

You could argue that the fire is too hot to handle! This week we sat down to debrief on our personal favourite television show (just kidding, kind of) Too Hot To Handle's second season and talk about how certain elements of the show showcase just how different dating is for younger generations. We also talk about how this is prevalent in other Netflix shows and what we think all of this will accumulate into going forward.

This week (sorry uploads get a bit dicey in the summer), we sat down to try and make some predictions for the next 6-18 months as COVID seems to wind down in our neck of the woods. We talk about 2021 being a footnote in history books, generational trusts in institutions and some potential optimism for the younger generations.

This week we sat down to talk about a recent article discussing millennial's most trusted brands. The answers may surprise you, they may not. We discuss the ethics of these being brands that are trusted, our personal surprise at the results, how this reflects again that social media doesn't equal majority and so much more.

This week we sat down to talk about the world of higher education and how different forms of education are entering the world. We talk about how new methods like income share agreements and virtual classrooms may appeal more to younger generations and what we think is vital for standard universities and colleges to continue to attract Gen Z's and Gen Alphas.

Sorry for Jenna being so quiet, we're trying to fix that??? But we're amateurs go easy on us. Thanks so much for listening, talk soon.
This week we sat down to talk about the state of the labour market, particularly in lower-skill, lower-wage jobs and how a generational shift is causing employers to panic, especially right now. We also discuss how some skilled jobs are undervalued, how older workers are re-entering the workforce in these lower-wage roles and how we may be in a "sweet spot" before an automation tidal wave.
