  • Episode 116 with Justice Smith, Daniel Barnz and Zelda Barnz
    2021/08/05
    Remember a lifetime ago when you hadn’t yet fallen in love with Chester? He was stripping off his glittery rainbow micro crop top in the middle of campus. Do you remember Chester’s spiritual ascent in Episode 8 when his water polo teammates had their Magic Mike moment? And remember how it was Chester’s own patented brand of A LOT-ness served back to him that made him crack a smile and then start voguing topless? In the first moments of the season 1 finale, Chester is dancing on a pole in a party bus. And by the end of the episode, he’s stripped barer than ever before — confronted with himself in an entirely new way. After a whole season of Generation, it’s not only Chester who has evolved. So has the actor who portrays him, Justice Smith. He discusses how on the sixteenth and final (for now!) installment of Generation: The Podcast with hosts Gigi Goode & Whembley Sewell, and Generation co-creators Zelda & Daniel Barnz. It’s a little sappy, it’s deep, and Daniel almost divulges who Chester greets in that gripping final scene (just kidding — he tells us why it’s so top secret.)

  • Episode 115 with Chloe East, Uly Schlesinger, and Zelda Barnz
    2021/07/29
    The penultimate episode of the first season of Generation traverses many places the series has yet to go: inside a Dad brain, to the brink of throuple disaster, and straight into the unfiltered root of conflict between iconic besties Nathan & Riley. Oh, and Paris. There’s artifice, betrayal, and more camera metaphors. For such a special layered episode, we bring you a special guest pairing: The Twins — Chloe East and Uly Schlesinger, iconic on-camera sibs Nathan & Naomi. They join hosts Whembley Sewell & Gigi Goode, as well as our astute in-house Generation expert, the show’s creator, Zelda Barnz, for the second-to-last episode of Generation: The Podcast.

  • Episode 114 with Chase Sui Wonders, Sharr White and Zelda Barnz
    2021/07/22
    You may have noticed that The Riley Episode is different from every other episode of Generation. It’s intensely focused on Riley’s subjectivity, and as her 24 hours without sleep unfurl, you fully descend into her blurred reality. This was the result of deep collaboration between Chase Sui Wonders, who plays Riley, and the writers, including Generation co-creator Zelda Barnz and Sharr White, who co-wrote this episode. These three join hosts Gigi Goode & Whembley Sewell on the fourteenth episode of Generation: The Podcast to share some of the juiciest BTS moments from the season and talk intuitive shooting, self-excavation and how they got that iconic Riley line: “didn’t anyone ever tell you not to get in the car with strange girls!?” Plus: how to talk about mental health without talking about mental health, unpacking Megan’s successful mothering moment, and of course, Griley analysis with the biggest stan in the game.

  • Episode 113 with Martha Plimpton and Zelda Barnz
    2021/07/15
    Some might say the fundamentals of drag are impeccable styling, a flair for the dramatic and knowing how to act like a bossy bitch. We see these talents embodied in the greatest drag queens of our time (cough, cough, Gigi Goode), but as our ever-astute recurring guest Generation creator Zelda Barnz points out: if she had been raised with different circumstances, Megan would have loved drag. In episode 13 of Generation, our backdrop for a messy night of botched expectations is a drag benefit at Hamburger Mary’s and much to her chagrin, Megan is there to see her children’s nontraditional relationships play out live. So in the thirteenth installment of Generation: The Podcast, hosts Gigi Goode & Whembley Sewell check back in with Zelda and Martha Plimpton about her character’s evolution. Plus, we get the exclusive take from Gigi herself about making her scripted television debut as drag queen number two.

  • Episode 112 with Max Saltarelli, Nathanya Alexander & Zelda Barnz
    2021/07/08
    Geometric wisdom tells us that all triangles have one thing in common (apart from having three sides): they are stable. But when two supporting sides simply decide to leave and create a new triangle, one side is left trying not to cry while bra shopping at the mall. Our favorite deltoid friend group DNA faces unforeseen tests in episode 12 of Generation. So in the twelfth episode of Generation: The Podcast, hosts Whembley Sewell & Gigi Goode delve into DNA’s ups and downs with Nathanya Alexander, who portrays its foundational member, Arianna, series writer and Generation musicologist Max Saltarelli, and Generation creator Zelda Barnz.

  • Episode 111 with Nava Mau and Zelda Barnz
    2021/07/01
    The troubled teen is a well-worn fixture in television. Usually in tow are their absent, well-meaning but clueless or totally narcissistic parent(s). But what we’ve rarely seen portrayed on TV is the presence of an elder queer caretaker who is rigorous when she needs to be and chill about the small stuff. Quite fortunately, the Generation crew is graced with the presence of Ana, Greta’s fabulous tia. In episode 11 of the HBO Max original series, she not only hooks up Riley with a job that will help her escape the confines of her parents, but she steps in and says maybe the only words that Riley really needs to hear. So it’s only right that on the eleventh episode of Generation: The Podcast, hosts Gigi Goode & Whembley Sewell get a deeper take on Ana with the actress who portrays her, Nava Mau, and Generation co-creator Zelda Barnz.

  • Episode 110 with Haley Sanchez, Christina Nieves and Zelda Barnz
    2021/06/24
    Generation writer Christina Nieves puts it best: “when you meet your match, that shit is deep and really complicated.” We’ve seen nothing short of total disasters take place when our favorite soul-aligned pairs first fumble toward connection. But teenagers learn relatively quickly and their wells of courage aren’t yet depleted by years of compounded disappointment. In other words: second chances are plentiful. In episode 10 of the HBO Max original series, we encounter a parade of them — between Greta & Riley, Chester & Bo, even Luz & Greta. In the tenth installment of Generation: The Podcast, hosts Gigi Goode & Whembley Sewell break down the why and how of these encounters with Generation creator Zelda Barnz, Christina Nieves and Haley Sanchez, who stars as Greta. And they get philosophical about cars, the bar inside Ralph’s (the supermarket), and what makes a romance real.

  • Episode 109 with Daniel & Zelda Barnz and Lukita Maxwell
    2021/06/17
    Secrets are like the red blood cells flowing through the veins of teenage life. But when a secret becomes a lie, it’s more like an aberrant air bubble that can clog an artery and cause a life-threatening embolism. The first episode back from Generation’s mid-season break is full of the kinds of secrets that really toe the line between a fib to protect a friend and deep vein thrombosis. So in episode nine of Generation: The Podcast, hosts Gigi Goode & Whembley Sewell pick up these secrets and get a closer look at the bearer’s motivations with Generation co-creators Zelda & Daniel Barnz and Lukita Maxwell, who stars as Delilah. Come for the deeper understanding of your favorite teens on television; stay to learn the art of the three-act kiss.
