Gen X Anxiety EXPLAINED: Are Baby Boomers Responsible?

Did Baby Boomers create the perfect storm for Gen X anxiety? Or did they accidentally raise the most resilient (and hilariously unbothered) generation ever?

In this episode, Eva and Don break down the chaos of growing up Gen X—where every game, playground, and news report felt like the apocalypse was just around the corner. Watch on YouTube In this episode: The nerve-wracking games like Operation and the Pop-Up Tic Tac Toe game that made kids sweat!

Playground warfare: dodgeball, Red Rover, and other borderline-dangerous games that ruptured spleens and dislocated shoulders. The rise of 24/7 news and how it turned every headline into a kid's worst nightmare.

How the Baby Boomer "every man for himself" mentality shaped Gen X into the most anxious yet feral and unbothered generation. We want to hear from YOU!

What childhood games made YOU the most nervous? Do you think Baby Boomers are responsible for Gen X's feral resilience?
