Ever wondered why Gen Z doesn’t know what a payphone is or how to burn a CD? In this clip from an episode of the Unsolicited Perspectives Podcast, hosts Bruce Anthony and J. Aundrea dive deep into the generational knowledge gap, exploring how parenting, technology, and pop culture have shaped what younger generations know-and what they’re missing. From hilarious stories about dial-up internet and collect calls to the influence of parents’ playlists and the lost art of using a record player, this conversation is packed with nostalgia, insight, and laughs.
Whether you’re a Millennial reminiscing about waiting until after 9 PM to make a call, a Gen Xer who remembers the struggle of downloading a song on Napster, or a Gen Z/Alpha curious about the “old days,” you’ll find something to relate to. Discover why it’s not Gen Z’s fault they missed out on certain cultural moments, and what parents can do to bridge the gap. Join us for a storytelling journey through music, tech, and the quirky realities of growing up in different eras. #GenZvsMillennials #ParentingCulture #popculturedebate #techthrowback #unsolicitedperspectives
