SOLVE FOR GEN X

Arts EN ↓ 31 episodes

As Generation X approaches the “Hey you kids get off my lawn!” age, it’s the perfect time to take stock of what exactly it is that defines us. Join Nate Starkey, Ashley Ward, and Matt Vogel — three Gen Xers bringing their personal perspectives to a wide range of pop culture, historic, and coming-of-age memories as part of the “forgotten generation”. If you, like us, are beginning to wonder if the crazy shit we grew up with actually happened, or was just some hair metal, Pac-Man, Speak & Spell-fueled fever dream…then SOLVE FOR GEN X is worth a listen. But whatever.
