Is it (finally) our time? GenX and the 2024 Election

As we finally start Season 6 of the podcast, we’re talking all about the upcoming election. BUT hold your horses before you yell at us for getting political. We're NOT gonna go there. Who you vote for is up to YOU and we are very very aware that politics is the third rail these days. However, we ARE gonna talk about the what it looks like when GenXers (or those we claim as ours) run for National office in terms of attitude, the role of pop culture in the process and how the 2024 election cycle feels as a result. And even if you don't listen to this awesome episode, VOTE!
