https://www.youtube.com/user/natestarkey149 min - EP#6: Pop Culture Bonanza (w/Baby Boomer Bill Ward)
On this episode of Solve for Gen X, join Nate Starkey (Gen X 1971), Ashley Ward (Gen X 1972), and Matt Vogel (Gen X 1970) as they talk about “Pop Culture Bonanza”…and all that that implies. Generation X came of age at the tail end of the Cold War and it was reflected in nearly everything we did and saw from our movies to our music, our television to our classrooms. Gen Xers also saw the birth of MTV and cable and so much more! But why read this description when you could hear all about it on this episode of SOLVE FOR GEN X?

https://www.youtube.com/user/natestarkey147 min - EP#5: Low-Tech Fun, Part Two (w/Generation Z Jack and Hunter Vogel)
On this episode of Solve for Gen X, join Nate Starkey (Gen X 1971), Ashley Ward (Gen X 1972), and Matt Vogel (Gen X 1970) as they continue to talk about “Low-Tech Fun”. Back when we were kids we did fun things like play with Barbie, ride bikes, write plays, and read books — without a tablet or game console in sight (mostly). What will other generations remember about their low-tech fun? We’ll ask two Gen Z kids (two of Matt’s sons) all about what they did other than video games when they were growing up.

On this episode of Solve for Gen X, join Nate Starkey (Gen X 1971), Ashley Ward (Gen X 1972), and Matt Vogel (Gen X 1970) as they recount “Low-Tech Fun”. Ah, kids today! They sure do seem to spend a lot of time on their gaming devices. Generation X didn’t have high-tech gaming like they do today. What did we have? We had…Low-Tech Fun and we loved it.

On this episode of Solve for Gen X, join Nate Starkey (Gen X 1971), Ashley Ward (Gen X 1972), and Matt Vogel (Gen X 1970) as they recall “The Sanctity of Breakfast Cereal”.

On this episode of Solve for Gen X, join Nate Starkey (Gen X 1971), Ashley Ward (Gen X 1972), and Matt Vogel (Gen X 1970) as they discuss “The Movie That I Could Quote on My Deathbed”. From H.I. and “Ed” McDunnough in “Raising Arizona” to Irwin M. Fletcher in “Fletch to Luke Skywalker in “Star Wars” characters in great movies often provide great quotes that we carry with us forever…even at the end of life (or so we hope).

On the premiere of Solve for Gen X, join Nate Starkey (Gen X 1971), Ashley Ward (Gen X 1972), and Matt Vogel (Gen X 1970) as they remember “The Song That Ate My Teenage Heart”. If you were a teenager in the 1980s, music could often express emotions that you couldn’t articulate yet. Whether it was feelings of heartbreak, love, anger, betrayal, joy, sex…music touched us all.

But whatever.
