Welcome to Season 4 of GenX Stories! While we we originally intended to launch this episode at the end of summer, I lost my father in September which sadly impacted everything. But we finally got the gang together, and thought we'd kick off our new season talking about how everything old is new again. Music, movies, fashion, everything is back (even stuff we wish wasn’t). With the GenZ'ers  trying to own on our nostalgia now, is GenX down with that or does it annoy the fuck out of us? Listen and find out, because you know we have opinions.
