Recorded on October 29, 2024, Josh and Jimmy welcome Natalie from the YouTube channel My So-Called Gen X Life for an epic journey through the heart and humor of Generation X. (Get well soon, Kane! 💖) Natalie brings her unique take on all things Gen X, from the quirks of growing up analog in a digital world to the cultural icons that defined a generation. This episode is loaded with stories, laughs, and an unapologetically Gen X sense of humor.

What to expect:

• Gen X Nostalgia Overload: From Saturday morning cartoons to the music videos that rocked MTV, Natalie and the crew swap stories of life before the internet made everything “easy.” 📼🎸
• The Analog Life: What it was like growing up without smartphones, streaming, or constant connectivity—just a boom box, a stack of mixtapes, and pure freedom. 📞💿
• Pop Culture Icons: A deep dive into the movies, music, and TV that captured the soul of Gen X. The conversation covers everything from The Breakfast Club to the bands that made the 80s and 90s unforgettable. 🎬🎶
• Gen X Humor and Grit: With a dark sense of humor and that classic Gen X “whatever” attitude, Natalie and the crew unpack why Gen X is so fiercely independent, often overlooked, and still totally rad. 😎💬

If you’re a proud Gen Xer or just curious about a generation that grew up a little differently, you won’t want to miss this episode. Don’t forget to check out Natalie’s channel, My So-Called Gen X Life, where she shares more stories, laughs, and insights on Gen X culture, nostalgia, and life in the “whatever” lane.

Episode 123: Renovations, Happy 4th of July!, Fuses & Shenanigans, TMNTs, 'EhQwity.EqWAliti', NFTs, and very little 80s Stuff

Recorded on July 2, 2024, this episode takes a winding journey through a variety of topics as Josh, Jimmy, and Kane take the mics. With plenty of detours and rabbit holes, this one’s got a little bit of everything—except, surprisingly, not much 80s talk! But hey, who’s keeping track?

What to expect:

• Renovations: The crew dives into tales of home improvement projects—where things went right and hilariously wrong. 🔨🏚️

• Fuses & Shenanigans: From blown fuses to near disasters, hear the crew’s stories of electrical mishaps and more. 💡🔌
• TMNTs: That’s right—Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles make an appearance in the convo. Cowabunga, dude! 🐢🍕
• 'EhQwity.EqWAliti': An unconventional spelling and a very unconventional conversation about equity, equality, and everything in between. It’s as serious as it is... well, not. 🤔💬
• NFTs: The gang talks digital collectibles, the hype, and whether they’ve got any skin in the game. 💎🖼️

Join us for an episode that’s all over the map (in the best way possible) as the D.W.O. crew brings you laughs, deep dives, and a little bit of chaos.
