Whine & Wine

Ask a GenZ


Listen Later

As humans, we have more in common than we think we do.

Or, do we?  

This month, our gift to you. We found a Gen Z'er willing to spend an hour with us answering all those mind-blogging questions that we've always wanted to ask. Or at least a few. Honestly, we were having so much fun that we might have gone on for hours if it weren't for my pesky date night.

What did we get into?

  • Kathy finally put her foot down and gave a full explanation of which years cover which generations in an attempt to stop Jyl from misgenning all the time.
  • The right way to say and drink Boba (turns out, we shouldn't be doing either).
  • How the pandemic affected the Gen Z'ers vs how the Gen X'ers think it should have.
  • What are Gen Z'ers passionate about?
  • How did they make tattoos acceptable?
  • Which socials are in and which are out?
  • Why and how Gen Z'ers navigate so many communication portals.
  • How the Gen Z talent of acceptance also causes some difficulties in handling conflict.
  • My favorite? A day to rot. I took one yesterday so now I'm scrambling to get this episode posted.
