Millennials have better overall recall of songs from the '60s through the '90s, as opposed to those released between the years 2000 and 2015. Why might that be? And which generation from the Boomers through Gen. Z can rightfully declare the music of their generation as the best of all time?
Is Gen X the neglected middle child, lost in the shuffle between a shadow cast by Boomers, and the bluster of attention-starved Millennials? Are Gen Xers suffering from a lack of identity and inferiority complex of Peter/Jan Brady proportions? We break all of that down here.
Millennials, for the 1st time in American history, are financially going to be worse off than their parents. What's the primary impetus behind this? Are opportunities more limited? Is the economic landscape changing? Or, is the stereotypical reputation of their generation being more lazy, having unrealistic expectations, and culturally driven narcissism more likely the driving force?
The retail landscape is constantly evolving. Some of that is related to technology, while other areas wither on the vine due to the unique tastes and spending preferences of younger generations. What is hurting as a result may surprise you. And how is the older set affected/impacted by all of this?
2020...a new year/decade, along with the potential for fresh starts, and new beginnings. But what with the way things have been trending of late, is that necessarily a good thing?

From where would you say you most derive your own version of Christmas spirit (or, "insert other holiday here")? Is it related to religion? Family and friends? Giving gifts to others?

Recent studies show that contrary to popular belief, the older you get, the less isolated you feel, with Baby Boomers doing best by comparison to their younger counterparts. What's the Gen. X take on all of this, and does it differ from that of Millennials? And what are the root causes? Brian and Maddie hash it all out on their 20th episode.
Gabrielle Union recently lost her job on "America's Got Talent." She's since leveled allegations regarding what she claims was a toxic work environment. Was that truly the case, or is it more of a sour grapes perspective in a culture where careers are increasingly viewed as a right/not a privilege? And what of personal accountability? Brian and Maddie take a deep dive on all of it.
70% of Millennials prefer "Friendsgiving," over spending a traditional Thanksgiving with their blood relatives. Does the same hold true for Generation X? What about women vs. men? Either way, what's the reasoning behind said outlooks? Brian and Maddie run it through the prism of their ages, life experiences, and genders.
Millennials are the largest, most educated, and connected generation of them all. Yet, ignorance in regard to health and well being could spell their downfall far more quickly than those who've preceded them. How does Gen X do by comparison, and what about from a gender perspective? Find out here.
