Generation Gab

GENERATION GAB! It's the show where a millennial (Chase O'Donnell) and a gen X (John Lehr) talk about the differences of their generations. If for no other reason than to make each other laugh. 

This week we have our first celebrity guest, David DeLuise! He bridges many generations because not only has he been in endless popular TV shows and Movies, his father is the incredible Dom Deluise. And if you're a millennial, do not fear, you know David as Selena Gomez's dad on Wizard's of Waverly Place. I mean, every generation knows this man. We begin the episode by educating Chase on who Dom Deluise is and then jump into David's time on Wizards of Waverly Place. John's wife, Jennifer, pops in a few times to share some extraordinary wisdom. You don't want to miss it. We end the episode on a game called WWGD (What Would Gen X Do?) where Chase quizzes John and David on what they would do in life situations as opposed to what millennial would do. Overall, it's a fun time. You should take a listen. Comment, share and give us a review if you feel so inclined! 

We'd love to hear from you!

This episode starts off by reminiscing about the Antelope Valley Comedy Festival that John produced last weekend. Chase's ten year high school reunion is coming up and John just attended his 30th high school reunion. Boy does time fly. They vent about the woes of not remembering the names of old friends. Speaking of 'friends', they gab about John's appearance on the hit show Friends... What? So cool! Lastly, they end on a listener's email submission about movies from the 80's.

This week, we interview John's long time friend Barry Neal. He is a professional stand up comedian and in John's words 'clearly a Gen X'. We are recording live in front of a studio audience at the Antelope Valley Comedy Festival (aka the Coachella of comedy). Did the audience just HAPPEN to be in the room while we were recording? Maybe... but still, they were there. We cover topics including how to handle bombing as a stand up, that time John and Barry did comedy in Edinburgh, and finally end on giving love advice to a listener who wrote in. You can be next!

One of our audience members, Darcie, has an awesome podcasting network called Curated Stacks. Check it out.

This is a very special episode, because this week Chase and John interview John’s 11 year old son, Hudson. He is part of the upcoming generation they’re calling Generation Z. (The generation that is going to save us all...)  He enlightens the millennial and Gen X on all things youtube and is way cooler than both of them combined. The cool bar is not that high, but still. Hope you enjoy!

This week we gab about Hollywood and what it's like going into meetings with people younger than ourselves. But that's not all, we discuss what we think the purpose of life is (I know... deep), and dive into statistics regarding millennials and their living situations. There are several interruptions along the way from a dog, a mailman, and a couple of Gen Z's, but all part of the fun, right? Enjoy! Please subscribe and leave a nice review if so inclined. It'll help the show out!

We talk for a while in this one, buckle up. We start with John telling the story of the time Bianca Jagger lived with him. #saywhat? Chase shares the struggle of being raised a vegetarian in the 90’s when it wasn’t a thing. Then Chase and John give their opinions on current pop culture headlines. We end on a fun round of Deal Breaker. Enjoy!

We might change the name of this podcast to “how to solve problems during the taping of a podcast”. Everything that could go wrong during this recording did. One problem being the sound wasn’t plugged in. (Sorry about the quality for the first 10 minutes). We call Chase’s grandma and have many difficulties actually getting her on the phone, but once we did, it couldn’t have been more interesting. John self proclaimed this episode "the best podcast we’ve done and if there’s a podcast award show this is the one we’re submitting”. Wow. Now that’s a bold statement. Hope you agree.

Chase and John discuss why millennials have been labeled the worst. Then, they go into a rapid fire game of "Guess That Generational Reference” (Still working on a title for this segment.) Chase shares her worst stand up bomb story that just happened in Atlanta. (It’s painful) And finally, John shares his experience being a recurring role on a primetime NBC show in the 90’s. Pretty fun stuff guys. Hope you enjoy!

This week, Chase is on a road trip with her sister London (@madebylondon) So John gives Chase a call in Nashville. Chase and John chat about her road trip and bring London into the conversation. She gives her advice on how the podcast is going so far. (All pretty positive stuff) She likes our podcast. Phew. Topics covered in this episode include, coffee enema’s, the whole 30, snapchat filters, and getting crazy in Atlanta.
