Kids today, they’re lazy, entitled, and self-obsessed. Their expensive avocado toast diets and Netflix-binging weekends mean they can’t get on the housing ladder, and they’re snowflakes, lacking the resilience that older generations have.

Or are they? Much of the conversation about Gen Zs and Millennials follows that trend, but is it right? And more importantly, is there any evidence to back it up? 

Join Phill Agnew and Bruce Daisley (bestselling author of Joy of Work and Fortitude) as they discuss if children really are less resilient, why schools should start later, how rugby players improved performance by 2.5%, and the best way to quit smoking.
