🧠 Gen Z Dating, Fake Aesthetics & “Bring Back Shame” | Souly for Laughs Podcast (Ep 55)
This episode is a generational crossover you didn’t know you needed. With special guest host Mia stepping in, the conversation turns reflective, funny, and brutally honest. From Gen Z’s views on monogamy and hookup culture to social media aesthetics replacing personality, this episode dives into what it actually means to grow, outgrow people, and stand on your core values — without losing your sense of humor.
Somehow we also get into stalking before Find My iPhone, mailbox crimes (allegedly), clip-on tails in high school, and why “bring back shame” might actually fix society. 😭
