Gen Z, Influencers, and Selling You Things You Don’t Need – Featuring Scout

We brought in a Gen Z guest, Scout, to put her to the test—can she handle the tough questions a Millennial and a Boomer throw her way? Spoiler alert: She didn’t just handle them, she schooled us. Scout takes us inside the world of social media influence, breaking down how TikTok creators turn followers into buyers—sometimes convincing people they need things they really don’t. Is it just marketing, or is society broken when influencers shape our spending habits? We debate the ethics, the reality, and what it means for the future of consumer culture. Get ready for a raw, unfiltered take on Gen Z’s perspective, the influencer economy, and why we’re all just one viral video away from clicking “Add to Cart.”

Gen Z, You're Fired! (Again?) – A Gen Z Joins the Debate

In this episode of A Boomer and a Millennial Walk into a Coffee Bar, we’re mixing it up with a fresh perspective! We invited Scout, a sophomore in university, to represent Gen Z and weigh in on last week’s discussion about why Gen Z is getting fired more than any other generation. Is it really about work ethic, or are employers failing to adapt to a new way of working? We revisit key points from our last episode, from the rise of remote work challenges to shifting workplace expectations and the generational clash over communication styles. But with Scout in the hot seat, we’re getting real about what Gen Z actually thinks—about job loyalty, hustle culture, and whether or not they even want to work a 9-to-5. So grab your coffee and join us for this lively, unfiltered conversation between three generations. Will Scout convince the Boomer and Millennial that Gen Z has it figured out? Or will this be one of those "kids these days" moments? Either way, it’s going to be a good one.Our Gen Z guest steps up to defend her generation while a Millennial and a Boomer come ready with questions, challenges, and maybe a little shade. From TikTok trends and social media to work culture and cancel culture, nothing’s off the table. Can Gen Z's defender hold her ground, or will experience win the day? Expect bold opinions, plenty of laughs, and maybe a few surprises along the way. Who do you side with?
