This week's GenX guest is from the podcasts Podjerky and Northern Touch (the latter he does with Dj Disspare and Thrust) as well as admin of The Podcaster's Collective. He talks about growing up and staying out till the street lights go on, how he got into podcasting, and how he became friends with one of Canada's most beloved MC-Thrust.

This week's GenX guest, Chris, aka Ray Gunn, was once crowned the King of Burlesque. He shares with us what growing up black and gay in an all white town in central Illinois was like and how a dance performance completely changed his life and gave him a direction for artistic creativity.

Cate and Lori from the Untitled GenX Podcast join me to chat about how terrible the year 1988 was, how a person's reaction to Prince's death is a deciding factor on where you sit in the GenX meter, and how Ramones tee shirts have gotten some other generations in trouble for not knowing who they are! We also share an awkward moment when I reveal why I don't like  Tori Amos. 

Check out their podcast The Untitled GenX Podcast

In this solo episode I give my thoughts on the Netflix documentary "The Last Blockbuster" and what video stores meant to me in the 90's and '00s. I also ponder how identity is so damn mainstream and dictated by AI.

Who Gives A Crap

Here's your second dose of a live conversation with my good Boomer pal Vicki from Pod vCon! This time we unpack some taboos around sex and confront some perverts who commented some gross shit during our livestream that we had to block. It's like two women can't sit down and talk about sex in a non sexual way without men thinking we are there to be harassed. We did have some amazing men defend our reactions and supported our chat with respect and grace, though! I think it's a good conversation, and hope you enjoy it too!

Hit me up with your thoughts on our take on sex at GenX Voice.com or @genxvoice on Instagram!

Boomer guest and bestie Vicki joins me in a chat about friendships in different generations. This was a livestream and the first chat we had before going live for Pod vCon. Tune in next week for the second live one where we discuss sex and how it has evolved from our generations to today
