The Gospel According to Jeromy
Fear and GenZ with Hutch Deibler
Remember the last time your charger got mistaken for makeup? It sparked the most unexpected banter at the Diebler family table—and that's just a taste of the conversations we're serving up this week. Our special guest, the Gen Z representative and anxiety connoisseur, Hutch Diebler, joins us to shed light on what it's like navigating a world where "cheugy" is a put-down and a phone charger can spark an intergenerational debate.
Get ready to laugh and maybe learn a thing or two as we tackle the quirks of modern-day communication. We'll take you on a rollercoaster ride from our largest crowd of 160,000 at Celebrate Freedom 2000, to the more intimate stages of family life where baby Hutch once made his on-stage debut. We're connecting generations—one cheeky comment and technical hiccup at a time, discussing everything from the Gen Z slang that baffles us to that time someone's old car turned the heat into an opera singer.
Wrap up your day with a chuckle as we discuss the secret to attracting teens (hint: it's not deer urine), and the allure of healthy snacks and hot tubs—with the assurance that it's all in good fun. Our episode comes to an impromptu close with a surprise visitor, but not before we give a nod to Hutch's music available on Apple Music and Spotify. Tune in for a heartfelt blend of laughter, candid reflections, and those precious family moments that always seem to take an unexpected turn.
all right, that looks like makeup I thought it was makeup and it's called clutch. What is it which sounds super?
Speaker 3:masculine what is that?
Speaker 1:it's um. It goes on the back of my phone and it's a charger.
Speaker 2:Oh, it's got this little guy and comes out do you remember clutch powers?
Speaker 1:yeah, can you guys be quiet for a minute while I do the intro? Let's see if you can do it Just going in.
Speaker 2:It's all about him. Yeah Well it is my podcast.
Speaker 1:If you haven't noticed, there's a hundred flyers around us that say the name of the podcast and you see how quiet everybody got. This is the Gospel, according to Jeremy. Thanks for joining us everybody. I'm Jeremy Dibler, along with Drew Powell, jennifer Dibler.
Speaker 2:Hutch Dibler, this week Special guest. Can you hear me chewing my gum?
Speaker 1:I didn't just now.
Speaker 2:You're chewing gum. Yeah, gosh, here we go. My hope for this podcast is just a fight the whole time Between who. Hutch and Jennifer. Yeah, just a family fight. Yeah, just a brawl.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, I mean, who gets along the most out of the three of you?
Speaker 2:Oh, Out of the three of us. It's changed. They get along really well. Good father-son combo no comment about that? I don't know he he can't stand me most of the time.
Speaker 3:True, yeah, that goes for both.
Speaker 1:Sometimes. I know you've not used mics a whole lot, but you might want to just get up next to yours, sorry. Don't whatever you do, you're going to get yelled at, oh yeah.
Speaker 2:Here we are.
Speaker 1:Hi Drew, hey, Anyways, let me kind of set this up a little bit before you guys just take over with it. Can I at least pretend it's mine, for?
Speaker 2:a second. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1:We are back after a really long Scott Williamson episode. I'm thinking this week we will try to make it a little bit shorter. And then we have Ariel Lohan next week. I mean, we're just killing it out here with guests. Well, people are reaching out to us like crazy, wanting to be on.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they want to be on. We're getting publicists. No, not one person. I was like what? Who is reaching out?
Speaker 1:Not one person.
Speaker 2:Hutch was begging to be on.
Speaker 1:I brought Hutch on today because I have, with clients and also just in life over the past month or so also just in life over the past month or so have heard so much about this free-floating anxiety that Gen Z has, and I felt like it would have been weird to talk about it without a Gen Z person here, and so I brought Hutch on to talk about it a little bit, which, by the way, did you know that that's what you're talking about today?
Speaker 3:Yeah, I'm like the resident anxious person in the house.
Speaker 1:Well, there is something that led me to want to have him on. He doesn't know this yet, but I'll share it later. But do you guys know what Gen Z stands for?
Speaker 2:Gen.
Speaker 1:It's a.
Speaker 2:Generation.
Speaker 1:You got the generation.
Speaker 2:It's fantastic.
Speaker 1:It is You're going to think, zany, if you think Gen Z is cool, now it's about to go away.
Speaker 2:It's got to be something. What does it stand for? They're the Zoomers. Oh, I have heard that. The Zoomer generation. I've never heard that. So it's kind of like Boomer to Zoomer.
Speaker 1:Yeah, just skip the millennial.
Speaker 2:You can't beat Gen X.
Speaker 1:Well, something I and I'll tell you what he was talking about millennials the other day. Like they were old, he was like yeah it looks like some millennial did it.
Speaker 3:Well, no, I don't think that it means they're old, it's just a specific vibe.
Speaker 1:Millennials have a vibe. Yeah, it's a lot of fonts.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:That's what you were saying. Yeah, before we get into that, let's do a couple of comments real quick, because these are backed up. These comments are backed up like weeks and weeks.
Speaker 2:I'm not looking forward to this part. Why I?
Speaker 1:don't know, because you know there's one disparaging one. I saved it for the end it's awesome, I feel like they're normally very complimentary of you.
Speaker 2:Oh good, she doesn't get negative ones very often. Yeah, I do, no, no no, it's all been good.
Speaker 1:I cause a fight. I am Katie Bakken. Hi, jeremy, haven't heard from you in a while, so I pray all is okay. You and your family are on my prayer list. It's been a joy to read your newsletters. Oh, this is why I put this one on here, if you're a listener and a subscriber. It has a long time since I put out one of those weekly newsletters, so I put this on here just to remind me, to let you know that I'm still fine, I'm around.
Speaker 3:To remind me. This is the only way I could reach you.
Speaker 1:She reached out and she's like I hope you're all right. It's been a joy to read your newsletters and get a glimpse into all God has done for you. You're a blessing. Just wanted you to know you're being lifted up in prayer Super nice. Brian from Texas said I'd love to hear you all talk about Celebrate Freedom 2000. Have to know what it is first, possibly other large crowds you've played.
Speaker 2:Oh, I mean that was 160,000 people that day.
Speaker 1:Have you ever played to a larger crowd?
Speaker 2:No, have we ever played to a larger crowd? That was the biggest one 160,000 people. I thought it was more. You said something insane to something at one point.
Speaker 1:Well, that's what I heard, but 160 sounds more realistic.
Speaker 2:That's what I said. I think the fish just keeps getting bigger.
Speaker 1:Well, somebody told us it was a quarter of a million people all on the field at South Fork. But I mean once you get up over 100,000, it's like what's one more?
Speaker 3:Man, that feels like a quarter million. That's right, 101,000.
Speaker 1:Man that's at least a quarter million. What did this?
Speaker 2:person say 160?
Speaker 1:160.
Speaker 2:What was Creation? I think that was like 80. Yeah.

Speaker 1:It was so fun. You went at two years old, I don't remember, it was two people. Was he alive?
Speaker 2:Oh, it was two people.

I've never been called caring before, but I appreciate it. We can't say that again the one before, but I appreciate it well, the one episode, the one episode so far out of 26 that we did without you.

Speaker 1:I've never heard that.
Speaker 2:You haven't. Yeah, I've heard that.

Speaker 2:Oh really, who is it? Which one is it? It's every time the table is hit. Oh, I will hit the table. I will try to be careful. Yeah, I think it's mine.
Speaker 1:That's a struggle, um brady allrich says your discussions about your kids growing up brings me back to an ffh concert we saw in tacoma, washington, and jennifer brought little baby hutch on stage. Oh, little baby hutch with his cute little ear protection headphones look how big him is now wow.
Speaker 1:To hear that he's following in your footsteps is awesome. He's got a lot of talent, which he comes by. Naturally, don't let those what is this even about? Haters affect this awesome podcast. On a technical side, please have drew. Switch the cameras to landscape mode. Done, did it, we did it we went landscape we read this guy's mail um well, we never started thinking that we were going to put this on youtube and then you started put on youtube and a lot of people were watching so we're like well, man, we better record it for youtube what do they call it?
Speaker 2:who's hating sideways?
Speaker 1:sideways, we're just sideways. Yeah, oh, we got a few people that, oh, we we got some haters.

Speaker 3:Nice yeah. I feel, like that means people are watching.
Speaker 2:Does it, oh yeah.
Speaker 3:You might be interested after this. Well, I just haven't had a chance to hate.
Speaker 2:You do enough without the podcast. I'm pretty unprepared today. I'm like so hating on you. I'm like being mean.
Speaker 1:Does it feel weird having him here? Do you feel like you have to be more edited?
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:You don't.
Speaker 2:Maybe I do, I don't know, you still could if you wanted to be more edited. Shut up. I'm so caffeinated I feel like my heart's going to come out of my chest. Are you serious? It's hard for me to think straight.
Speaker 1:Man, I've had these afternoon podcasts for you. It's rough, I've been talking for five straight hours already this morning. You guys are really gonna have to carry me today you got a lifesaver there. Yeah, it's just one, all right um, last night I played music with hutch and sadie as part of their band, and in the green room there was just a whole lot of those, and so I lifted big box. I lifted a ton of those the problem with these wintergreen lifesavers is I eat them like food, like I actually they're so good.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean it's like man.
Speaker 1:Okay, vince de carlos says I love john mays and water burger. So this is perhaps the most likable podcast episode in the history of the platform oh whoa which the reason I want to put that on there is because, uh, uh, in and out edged water burger for our um, best burger poll by like five percent barely it was very close and also short hair edged long hair by like five percent oh, it beat long hair it did but not by much.
Speaker 1:No I'm growing it back out. Are you just kidding? I don't know. Is it coming? I'm just saying I saying I've never had Whataburger. I think I've said that before.
Speaker 2:Oh, it's good. I'm hoping someone gets it. Me neither. It's not as good as In-N-Out.
Speaker 1:Really.
Speaker 2:Shh, sorry, vince.
Speaker 1:Well, In-N-Out is a vibe and it also is cheap.
Speaker 2:In-N-Out's so cheap.
Speaker 3:The amount of sodium in it. Like the fries, just salt.
Speaker 1:Well, I never get the fries. It's great. What do I get at?
Speaker 3:In-N-Out. Two double doubles right, no two hamburgers I'm sorry With With triple pickles.
Speaker 2:Oh, triple pickles yeah.
Speaker 1:That's the name of my jet. Triple pickle, triple pickles.
Speaker 3:I love it. Jeremy's In-N an out order for 500.
Speaker 1:Rob Posnanski says seriously, one of my favorite podcasts to listen to Rob Posnanski. Yes, I always remember the conversation y'all would have back in the day and it would really go from topics like tampons to deconstruction man. Remember Rob? Yes, he was great, he is great, he's not dead.
Speaker 2:He Remember Rob.
Speaker 1:Yes, he was great, he is great.
Speaker 2:He's not dead. He's not dead, thank God yeah. He probably still is great he worked at the record company and he was just so fun. What did he do? I just remember loving him, wasn't it like radio and promotions and stuff, I think? So I can't remember what the job was. He listens. I'm sure we'll get a comment. More unbiblical nonsense.
Speaker 1:Yes, More kindergarten level blasphemy from Jennifer. In the same episode we have more talk of the new age and demonic Enneagram. Nothing more to say. Praying for your repentance.
Speaker 2:Wow man, me too. I have one thing to say. Who is this?
Speaker 1:The Realm. This is the Realm. I love the Realm, the Realm.
Speaker 2:I hope the Realm's still listening, or realm just no, realm just don't watch.
Speaker 1:No realm has not given up on us yet. I love that still praying yeah, well, this is probably because it doesn't have to watch or listen, but still does, but maybe just to check for heresy. Yeah, I think the realm's just watching with a very critical eye there's eight comments on here, and usually this is about the ratio per per eight. There's one that's like you guys need to clean up your show, or I thought, jennifer, not, no show was coming.
Speaker 1:You need to clean up your show well, jennifer's saying oh my god too much, or jennifer's talking too much.
Speaker 2:I think that pretty much all comes from the realm right.
Speaker 3:Well, is the realm.
Speaker 2:A repeat commenter yeah, oh okay, yeah well, I thought, I thought that he and.
Speaker 1:I made up One night. I texted him for a long time and I just kept going, man just trying to explain and just going hey, man, just take it easy. And finally I was like man, this doesn't feel like it's getting anywhere. I don't even know your real name, so he gave me his name, he's like nice to meet you.
Speaker 2:Oh, so you know the Realm's real name, I do but I don't feel like I should share it. I don't think you should, you should not I can't believe you texted him.
Speaker 3:It was an Instagram comment. Were you watching?
Speaker 2:it oh yeah.
Speaker 1:I was watching the whole thing. I kept typing smart-ass comments and deleting them. I wish you would have gotten.
Speaker 2:You could have backed him up a little, you don't?
Speaker 3:want to gang up on the realm, though.
Speaker 2:The realm can handle it.
Speaker 1:No, I was actually sarcastically Ganging up on Jeremy.
Speaker 2:That's even better, oh man.
Speaker 1:No, I was like trying to quote like FFH lyrics. I was all kinds of stuff. I mean I was out of control.
Speaker 2:You know what would have helped, that is, if you knew any.
Speaker 1:I could probably pull back a couple. Yeah, don't, though we don't need it.
Speaker 2:I forgot to lock the dog in her cage. Do you think we're okay. Well, I mean she's doing all right. I saw Winnie made an appearance down here a second ago.
Speaker 1:She did, she was fine, it's pretty amazing that she's not trying to get on Jennifer's lap, but she probably will here in a second, vince DiCarlo Hi.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't know if I did text you, but we do, since you haven't listened to an episode. We do a little check-in at the beginning, kind of like I do with the clients, just going, hey, tell me something you know, tell me how you are right now, let's check in, how's your body feel? And so, to shorten it, I've been going hey, why don't you name something that has made you smile over the past week, something that's made you happy, something that's made you sad, gladdened or saddened, did she tell?
Speaker 3:you this I kind of said it 30 minutes ago, I didn't think of anything.
Speaker 1:You had 30 minutes to think of one thing that made you happy over the past week, and one thing that made you sad.
Speaker 2:Okay, all right, where do you get that? Move, drew. Why don't you go first? Okay, let's check in.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you both did, we both did. I love it. He's nervous about the cameras rolling because of last week. No go ahead, aren't you? Is that one rolling? I can't imagine. Why Is that one still rolling?
Speaker 2:It's going, we're all good.
Speaker 1:Yeah, what made me very happy this week was coming off of. What's making me sad is this mic cable that keeps popping.
Speaker 2:Oh no.
Speaker 1:Well, if we do have to, you know we do have, we can pause and put another one in yeah, maybe we should just reach behind you there, grab that one yeah, should we do that? Yeah, we can just keep rolling.
Speaker 2:I'll cut, I'll make it yeah, there you go, because it is literally every time. Is it yours?
Speaker 1:though. Oh yeah, well, let's get rid of that. I just popped that you want me to go.
Speaker 3:That one's new, that's brand new that cable's brand new.
Speaker 1:That cable's brand new Because I knew one of these was suspicious, but I didn't know which one it was Suspicious. Yep, that one. I'm a problem child here. Yeah, I don't know how much that was getting on our quarry. I don't want to take the risk, well, and you know we didn't really talk about much so Well, that's kind of the vibe. You really like that smart list vibe, don't you?
Speaker 3:hey, you want to put one in your cage well, yeah, but they're also professional actors and comedians like smart list is a great podcast.
Speaker 1:Look, it's Drew's reference. He's the one that said that we should pattern this after Smart List. No, I think that's a good idea.
Speaker 3:It would be weird if you thought they were funny. It would be weird.
Speaker 1:Well, actually my mother-in-law is very funny. She's annoying as heck, but she's very funny. Oh, shoot, that's on there, isn't it? Yeah, oh, dang it.
Speaker 3:Are you going to keep this in? She's gone.
Speaker 1:No, I'm not keeping it in, but I have it just in case.
Speaker 3:Okay, we have it, some anti-meme-y content.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, we did a lot of. We were just kind of we're, we're just kind of getting into it there. Man, it is a huge difference for me recording in the afternoon as opposed to the morning. Yeah, why I just have more energy in the morning oh yeah, I have a ton of interesting things to say today I've got a uh, I've got a nice Gen Z quiz coming up. A quiz 20 Gen Z words, that other generations don't know.
Speaker 3:Oh my gosh, I'm not going to know them. Oh my gosh, Don't say them. I may know them.
Speaker 1:There's someone here I'm like.
Speaker 3:Do I not? Is it going to be weird if I know some of them? Are they weird words?
Speaker 1:No. You'll be fine oh no, no, none of them are dodgy. Okay, I think I was in number two, like nothing stopped nothing.
Speaker 3:Camera okay, good, good, good we'll just keep because that'll give me what do you edit in brightness, kind of down from here.
Speaker 1:I don't know. I mean, I don't want to touch it, but I don't know he hutch looks perfect, check one, two. Why are you not plugged in check?
Speaker 3:check. Well, never mind, check one, two, one, two, one, two. I think she has enough battery it'll dim if you're low on battery.
Speaker 1:Sometimes is that any better?
Speaker 2:oh yeah, fixed it I have my charger cable, if you want, fixed it. Fixed it. Get that out of here. He's fixed. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3:I love hibiscus tea.
Speaker 1:Nothing.
Speaker 2:Sweet.
Speaker 1:Bang on the table all you want I hate feeling constricted.
Speaker 3:I want a bang on the table, dang it, Dude.
Speaker 1:We got to talk about a newsletter. I got some ideas. Is that what you wrote down? Yeah, hey, we're back everybody. You may have noticed a little bit of a cut there. We had to replace a cable before we got into the what's Made you Happy, what's Made you Sad, and Drew's taking notes so far. We're going to be working on a newsletter. You might want to work on spelling. It's N-E-U-S Nuss, Nussletter. That's a W. It's the German spelling. Baby. You want to go first? What's?
Speaker 2:gladdened you?
Speaker 1:What has saddened you?
Speaker 2:What has gladdened me? Give us just a glimpse what has saddened me. What has saddened me, Okay what is gladdened me. I need you to be playing something behind me.
Speaker 1:That's what we should do. We could have Hutch underscore.
Speaker 2:Yeah, totally.
Speaker 1:This is saddening me because I want you to answer.
Speaker 2:Son of a biscuit. Okay, made me happy was my baby's leading worship together.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but you didn't even go.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I don't go, didn't even go.
Speaker 1:Just the thought of it made you happy.
Speaker 3:This is the one night it probably would have made more sense for you to be there than not.
Speaker 2:That was really. The reason I don't go is because I think it'll make Sadie nervous.
Speaker 3:She sounded great. Yeah, she's good. I know her stage presence is great.
Speaker 2:He played, got to play with him.
Speaker 1:Do you play guitar? I was in the band. No, I was playing keys. Didn't even have a mic. All right, tell me something that made you sad.
Speaker 2:Well, it's sort of weird to talk about with him here, just thinking about my babies growing up.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I've been thinking about that a lot this week and it's made me very sad.
Speaker 2:Wow, yeah, I feel that. Yeah, it's like because we were buddy. Do you remember when you were little and sadie would do something stupid and you and I would look at each other like you would look at me, like kids. You know what I mean, am I right? You always did that.
Speaker 3:I mean, look what you have to deal with.
Speaker 2:I know sadie say something crazy, and he'd just look at me like, oh mama, what are we going to do with this one? Yeah.
Speaker 1:And now you get on his nerves.
Speaker 2:Oh well, sure, but it's just that person I've been telling I told him about this this week is gone. I mean like he's gone, I mean he doesn't.
Speaker 3:I don't know about that.
Speaker 2:No, but that kid is no more, that little baby.
Speaker 3:We killed him.
Speaker 2:That little baby hand, little baby face.
Speaker 1:I have a little tree ring thing I'd like to take you through Just to prove to you that he's still there. What?
Speaker 2:I'm saying is he doesn't remember a lot of the things that you know, and so I'm the only one that remembers, and it's just sort of sad.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you also don't remember like I've gotten some texts. I'm going to kill your effing kids if you don't get home here.
Speaker 2:Sure, I'm not.
Speaker 1:Oh, like from her.
Speaker 2:I do remember that. Sure, I'm not saying I don't remember that.
Speaker 3:That's why that kid is no more.
Speaker 2:You killed him. Remember that kid we were just talking about?
Speaker 1:It wasn't you, nope, that's great.
Speaker 2:Hey, that's probably not good in the microphone. I don't know if you've done this a lot, but chewing on a lifesaver in the microphone probably not a good idea, almost done.
Speaker 1:What about you, Hutch? Something that's gladdened you, something that's saddened you?
Speaker 2:You want a lifesaver too. Yeah, something that's gladdened me. Uh, all the, all the music this week.
Speaker 3:All the stuff you're doing. You've had some good stuff happen. I had some great stuff, met a lot of awesome people. Dirty loops dirty loops was good. It was too loud, though. I mean the opener. They had their moog up like volume 11, and I was in front of the sub. Just not tell him what you said to me when you came home and I was in front of the sub, just not.
Speaker 2:Tell him what you said to me when you came home.
Speaker 3:What did I?
Speaker 2:say you said you were worried that it was damaging you. Oh, it felt dangerous. The amount of bass.
Speaker 3:I was front and center, Literally literally up against the barricade at Dirty Loops and the opener's sub bass was Like horrible. That makes me sad.
Speaker 2:Glenn was so angry. Where did they play?
Speaker 3:It was Cannery Ballroom, yeah.
Speaker 1:Wow, I'd love to see that they're amazing.
Speaker 2:Their band dynamic is really fun. You know what, when you were in my belly and we were playing shows, I stood in front of the drums. I literally would like I was so worried about you being in front of the drums. I remember asking the doctor he's like he's fat.
Speaker 3:It was loud with my earplugs on Saddened you that saddened you?
Speaker 2:No, that was just one thing.
Speaker 1:I wasn't even going to say dirty loops. What about the saddening?
Speaker 3:part Scrolling.

Speaker 3:I'm sorry. I didn't block her at all. She's all my close friends. You just muted her. I just unfollowed you, it's easier. I'm sorry, it's easier.
Speaker 2:He's so disappointed in me.
Speaker 1:It's a rollercoaster in there.
Speaker 3:It's something.
Speaker 1:What about you, drew? What made me very happy was I went to Easter Mass with my family oh yeah, I saw that and had zero responsibilities, sat with them, enjoyed it, and my parents were in town. They went cool and yeah, going to church together, sitting there and participating, receiving, leaving, not being the last one to leave enough to turn the lights off and having no not doing 30 services over six campuses and two weekends and all that stuff it was great, how nice you went to one service. To one service.
Speaker 2:And then you got to go to lunch.
Speaker 1:It was beautiful Went to lunch. Well, I had some stomach issues, so lunch was not as fun. Oh, bummer. That was the sad part of my week.
Speaker 2:The stomach Just being a little under weather.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, a little tum-tum issues.
Speaker 2:You should tell me I can send you some frequencies. That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 1:I thought you just had constant frequencies heading my way I didn't know they were shut off.
Speaker 2:Yes, they shut off. It's a thing. I'm not going to keep it rolling.
Speaker 1:Oh, why not Just keep? I need it all times. It's a constant frequency. That was mine. What about yours? It's funny, I warned you guys about this and I didn't think about mine. I have to say, you know, I tried to play a cool ass night but it was really fun. It was really fun backing up Hutch and Sadie it. And then you know him seeing dirty loops at canneryery, which is where Jennifer and me met, that's right At a Rich Mullins concert in 1994. Here we are in 2024. My kids are playing gigs. I'm disappearing into the background. I love it.
Speaker 2:You're like Bart Simpson going into the bushes.
Speaker 1:Yep, pardon, I'm Bart Simpson into the bushes, not.
Speaker 2:Bart who's the dad? I'm Bart Simpson Into the bushes.
Speaker 1:Not Bart, who's the dad, it's Homer Homer.
Speaker 2:Homer going into the bushes Just.
Speaker 1:That's. I'm happy for you. That's wonderful, thanks. No, that is a Great reference. Thanks, it's a highlight. Also, you know, saddening me. You know I've talked about this On this podcast before I am. You know this am, uh, you know I this, you know, running an nonprofit doing the business, all that stuff. I just don't like doing that. You know, contract labor was easy. Go play music, come home, you know this. Uh, we we've had some over the past week.
Speaker 1:Some people be really generous to our non-profit and underwrite some artists who couldn't normally pay for their care and it kind of came out of the sky and I love that and it's great being the recipient. Recipient uh explanation point explanation point, but also I just the terror of not knowing. I you know, that's just the business. I love it, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Which brings us back to when are we at on time Nutcracker.
Speaker 1:Where are we at on time? I don't know. We made an edit, so 30 minutes on here, but we took some time off, all right.
Speaker 2:We did, we took a little break.
Speaker 1:Around 43% of Gen Z people have been diagnosed with anxiety. 56% are overweight or obese.
Speaker 2:That's why we brought you on here.
Speaker 1:We've been meaning to talk to you. Yeah, sorry, it's an intervention.
Speaker 2:Intervention of your weight.
Speaker 3:I'm not anxious at all, so I wonder which one You're obese?
Speaker 1:Well, that actually, I mean, that's a lot of people.
Speaker 2:I didn't, I wasn't paying attention. That's a lot of people to be stressed out.
Speaker 1:There's a lot of people to be stressed out. There's so much that you said to me the other day that made me want you to hey keep up. The group has moved on to the next exhibit.
Speaker 2:Can I look at the paper, I guess? Alright, go on.
Speaker 3:You're not supposed to have those. He's cheating.
Speaker 1:Oh, I'm not allowed to have that I think the notes are a one-person thing, so the other day you said in my vast podcast experience here and you're refereeing, calm down the uh, the thing you said the other day, that like I didn't say anything to you but I was like you said, instead of going, I'm anxious or I've been having it. You said my anxiety. You kind of like owned it, like you like it's like, like I might say my MS like and and I mean I, I knew what you meant, but I was like man, how many like. I can't imagine when we were kids, even the language of my anxiety.
Speaker 2:Oh no, you know what I mean. Like, but you can't be a person his age without having it, am I right?
Speaker 3:Yeah, I don't think that's a rare thing to say.
Speaker 1:Do you feel like it's something that you are, or are you sometimes anxious?
Speaker 3:I don't know, probably the second one.
Speaker 1:Just sometimes anxious.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I don't think it's something you are. It feels like something that does happen to you a little bit though.
Speaker 2:But what about you personally? I'm only saying me personally oh, your eye is red, okay oh my gosh I just saw it which one your left, one, really, you know how your eye gets red.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's my right one, that's your left. One, honey, that's your left the one that always gets red is my left one oh no, this one that is red is left I'm pretty sure the right one usually gets red Well this one's red so here's my question, because when I was doing a Google search of this, when you type in Gen Z, the next thing is anxiety.
Speaker 1:Really, what, the what, so what was our thing?
Speaker 2:Oh. I felt very anxious.
Speaker 1:But I'm saying this is the first time I can remember a generation being defined for like and you've got Gen Z's in your house Zoomers, Yep, Like. Their generation is defined by worry. It's that, John Mayer song.
Speaker 2:I mean, is it defined by worry, just because that's what comes up on Google search?
Speaker 3:Doesn't mean it's defined. I mean that's an indication of something. I mean that's an indication of something.
Speaker 2:But don't you think our generation was pretty worried about war, and you know bombs and stuff too?
Speaker 1:I think how accessible information is has made everyone worry. That's what I'm wondering. I didn't have a constant daily download of anxiety-inducing content every day. I mean even the news. Like I'll have Jamie turn it off, I'm like I don't. They're reporting on things here in Nashville that are happening in some other part, small town in another state, just because it's awful Because they need content.
Speaker 1:I do not need to know that. Like, give me the weather, Give me some big world news stuff, but it's just like but see, they're not watching the news and this is why I wanted you to come on. Well, we get the news. If I could ask you like, when I say you, I don't mean you personally, I mean like your group.
Speaker 3:Because you told me, like your friends, they're all like. My therapist says this, my counselor says this. Like, what are you guys worried about? I don't know. Just in general, I think, if you're like talking about the news.
Speaker 1:We're just over-informed. Maybe now, but I don't know. What are we worried about? Yeah, like what is the anxiety?
Speaker 2:I don't know, You're speaking for a generation. It just is.
Speaker 3:Let me just speak for everyone my age under and slightly over. I don't know, we're just worried, I'm just worried.
Speaker 1:If you thought I seemed worried and you were like, daddy, what are you worried about? I could probably tell you I could be like yeah, well, I'm kind of worried that I'm not gonna, whatever, but you guys have this like free-floating thing. I just wondered if you knew what everybody's worried about yeah, I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 3:Not knowing what we're doing, not knowing what I'm doing, I feel like we have our sort of existential war stuff, but it's more like well, some of it is like nuclear war, but not really. It's kind of just no, I don't know. Nobody knows what they're doing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't know what I'm doing but do you guys like talk about the war in ukraine? Hardly yeah, you don't talk about like hamas no, no, that's only for instagram you did watch the putin interview I did.
Speaker 3:I felt like I should for mama, no, for just to know what happened just to be informed yeah, I mean, I feel like I thought a ton of people would be talking about. I haven't heard anything about it no one talked about it. Nobody talked about it I was like I feel like I this is feels like a big thing. I should probably watch it just to have my own perspective. And then I didn't hear about it anywhere.
Speaker 1:I didn't see it, I didn't know about it.
Speaker 3:It's really boring. I skipped through a lot of the second half just because it just go on First act was better. It's pretty crazy that they're just sitting down talking, so I figured I should watch it.
Speaker 2:A lot of people have interviewed Putin over the years. I guess. It's not that, really that crazy, but I guess right now during war.
Speaker 3:I feel like he's been elevated more to like this big bad.
Speaker 2:Well, we could figure out why that is?
Speaker 1:I have a theory. You want to hear it.
Speaker 2:Sure.
Speaker 1:I mean for sure, I don't know. We have much.
Speaker 2:I mean, you're too old for that. No, that's your gospel For theories. I'm too old for theories. No, for speaking for Gen Z, but whatever.
Speaker 1:No, I know, but that's why I just have a theory, that's why I can't say it for sure. But if it's true that peace is in the present and anxiety is future worry, and this is potentially the least present For me I had no idea what my friends were doing growing up, unless we were in the room together. Yes, oh true. So we're in an age and this is not just gen z, this is everybody.
Speaker 1:we're in an age that everything around us is constantly pulling us out of the moment. So I'm wondering if we were able to somehow get back to quiet and stillness and in the moment. But you think about?
Speaker 1:every social media platform pulls you out of the moment I mean just every like now we have, at least when I was growing up, there were there were moments or longer seasons of time, longer periods of time where we were present and then we got distracted and pull out of the moment. Now it's the opposite. Now there's almost our whole lives. We can not be in the moment in little pockets of time. Yeah, I look, I think about my daughter as a senior in high school. It's rare for her to slow down and long enough to be in the moment. She's her work and school and theater and all the things she's doing. Go, go, go, go, go. Like. Sometimes I stop her and be like, hey, can you just be here, like. And then when she is home she's resting up for the next thing, so she's not actually being present. I'm sleeping waiting to go and do the next deal.
Speaker 1:So, I don't know. Just a theory. I think that's the hum. Of anxiety is we don't know how to be present anymore.
Speaker 2:That feels right.
Speaker 1:That's so true, I see that yeah Well, I feel like this might be one of the first generations where the default is not actually like quiet, like we had to add stuff to our life to make it noisy. These guys, how would they make their life quiet?
Speaker 2:I don't know. It's crazy. That's a good point. We had to pretend things. The thing is, it's not their fault, you know what.
Speaker 1:I mean Like that's. What bothers me is that you know, you hear this. These kids these days, blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 2:I'm like no, no, no.
Speaker 1:We're giving them this world Like. This is the world they're inheriting. We made it for them.
Speaker 2:Yes, we did.
Speaker 1:I agree with that. What were you going to?
Speaker 2:say, the millennials gave it to them. You are. Why don't you shift that blame?
Speaker 1:You're a millennial 42 is a cutoff.
Speaker 2:I just am saying a lot of. Those are the tech people that made the social media stuff. We were too old to even know how to do that crap. I'm not saying we don't have a problem.
Speaker 1:It's my fault. It's my fault, my bad, it's his fault.
Speaker 3:I'm sorry man. Let's not let it happen again. That's why we brought this together.
Speaker 1:Tell me if you think this squares. Gen Z is defined by their love of sustainable, ethical and socially responsible. Does that feel right Defined?
Speaker 3:by their love of things sustainable.
Speaker 1:Sustainable, ethical and socially responsible companies. I don't know if they're defined by companies, but sure. And also says. Instagram says that 63 of gen c respondents say are they single and not going to change that 60 of gen c.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's crazy three percent um, I don't know about that.
Speaker 2:You're single and ready to mingle.
Speaker 3:Well, I don't know about mingle, I'm just kidding. Definitely single.
Speaker 1:That was really funny to me, that whole little moment there.
Speaker 3:You're single and ready to mingle?
Speaker 1:I don't know about mingle. I'm not trying to mingle, take note of these five things that are big no-nos for people of this Gen Z generation, as noted by Instagram in its new survey Number one, chewing with their mouth open Big no-no.
Speaker 2:Number one no-no for Gen Z Really Well, I know it is Is Sadie Gen Z. Yeah, because that is a big no-no for her.
Speaker 1:Yeah, my kids roast me about that all the time.
Speaker 2:Number two it makes her want to cry. Like she to cry, I hate it.
Speaker 1:So I think it's well. Maybe that's where the anxiety is coming from. It's just close their freaking mouth when they eat. It's like according. According to this, if gen z has one message they want to tell the world close your mouth.
Speaker 3:Close your mouth when you eat. Close your mouth when you're eating and, in general, what if that was it?
Speaker 1:that was it. That's their message. Second, is you bad taste of of humor or taste in memes? Memes, bad sense of humor or taste in memes. That's their second.
Speaker 2:Not memes.
Speaker 1:I'm just editing his spelling now. Dirty fingernails is third.
Speaker 3:Wait a minute, this is all subjective stuff. This is.
Speaker 1:Instagram survey. This is what Instagram survey is. That's as scientific as it gets Instagram survey.
Speaker 2:This is what Instagram survey is. That's as scientific as it gets.
Speaker 1:Here's what I'm saying is who says they know what a good sense of humor is and what are good funny memes. I'm just saying Instagram did a survey.
Speaker 2:I feel like you took that role. Personal, I do.
Speaker 1:Instagram did a survey and these are the four things that are most important to Gen Z as their biggest no-nos. I understand.
Speaker 2:Can you understand? Let's do them at once as their biggest no-nos. I understand.
Speaker 1:Can you list them at once, okay, first, chewing with their mouth open. Second, a bad sense of humor or taste in memes. Third, dirty fingernails. And fourth, the other person using a baby voice Really. Yeah, okay, I feel like they use baby voices?
Speaker 2:What?
Speaker 3:group. I mean all that stuff's pretty annoying, but what group did?
Speaker 2:they Do, you have fingernails, I mean well.
Speaker 1:I mean who?
Speaker 3:loves any of that. Fingernails are pretty, I mean guitar player fingernails. Oh yeah, you're out on that, can't do that.
Speaker 1:All right, let's do some Gen Z vocabulary, because I think this is. You may hear these words in your house. Yeah, I probably do so I'm going to say the Gen Z word and you tell me if you think you know what it means.
Speaker 2:This is only for Hutch.
Speaker 1:Well, you guys, okay everybody.
Speaker 3:Are you going to know what they mean?
Speaker 1:Yeah, here we go, we'll see Pookie.
Speaker 3:Don't know what that means.
Speaker 1:Pookie. Anybody know? Know, pookie, I don't want you to say it either way, it's a little snack.
Speaker 2:No, it's the nickname for your best friend, that's your pookie.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's cute little pookie, yeah you're pookie, so I like that uh, simp, I've heard yeah, I know what that means.
Speaker 3:What is it? It's too well. It's more of a say a guy who doesn't hang out with his guy friends staying with his girlfriend yeah, it's when a man is overly submission to his woman.
Speaker 2:That's got that word Before bros.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah. The example sentence though I don't even understand this literally says guy simping her Instagram applies and she doesn't even notice. I don't know.
Speaker 2:That didn't feel like. I feel like you're talking in another language.
Speaker 1:I know Third Riz, let me know what that is.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, yes, I knew you were going to. That's like being good at hitting on someone. Charisma yeah, I think it's just shorter for charisma.
Speaker 2:Okay, you're right. Should it also be like aka douchebag?
Speaker 3:I think douchebag's out no.
Speaker 2:I know, but like it's not the same.
Speaker 3:I don't think Riz has a negative. Riz doesn't need to be rude.
Speaker 2:It's not negative. It just means you've got charisma.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I think so yeah.
Speaker 1:I think so you can Riz somebody up too.
Speaker 3:Honestly.
Speaker 1:I wouldn't know, though, coquette. Do we know what a coquette is? A coquette Coquette. What is it? A coquette Coquette, yeah, what is it?
Speaker 2:What do you think it is? I have no idea.
Speaker 1:Coquette is mainly an aesthetic based on reclaiming girlhood and embracing a fun-loving, bubbly personality.
Speaker 2:A coquette was also like if you had a character in a movie. She could be the coquette character.
Speaker 1:Oh, okay okay.
Speaker 3:So that's not a new word. That doesn't describe what it is. It's on here. But I'm just saying, that's how it was kind of like a oh no, you did describe it Never mind Yeet.
Speaker 1:Does anybody know what a yeet is?
Speaker 3:Yeet. I mean I've heard yeet, that's old. When's this list from?

Speaker 2:You know what you're doing right now. You yeeted it.
Speaker 3:These are all self-defining words.
Speaker 2:You are hitting on the number two of that list. That is really bothering you, I'm simping. Look at him. Look how annoyed he is no no. Of the top four things that get on the list.
Speaker 3:I think you trying to define these words is a part of the humor, that you know what I mean.
Speaker 1:I'm trying to do a service to our listeners, okay, that's why I have you on here.
Speaker 3:I think they're going to yeah.

Is is out what used to be hipster big beards and the whole. Thing no hate to beards.
Speaker 1:No listen, I don't take it personally, but in a certain situation here this is my fashion like that's a vibe and so it's chewy like a negative yeah like oh, that's you don't want to be chewy, I mean, yeah, I mean I actually think we're probably too old to be Cheugy.

Speaker 1:If I go. Do you want Chipotle for dinner? You could go. Beige flag. No, it's more like if you're talking about a person and you're saying oh, that's a red.

Speaker 3:Some random fact that's pretty neutral, is a beige flag About someone. So it's about a person.

Speaker 1:That got me. Anyone can be a porn star. That got me, it's pretty much just a.
Speaker 3:It's like, I think it's a social network where you pay to get into someone's profile. Look at how dumb Hutch knows what it is. I think you just have to pay to watch someone's profile, like any social. I think you just have to pay to watch someone's profile, like any social network.
Speaker 2:you just pay to get in, so they can put whatever they want, but what's on it? But it's all about butts, right?

Speaker 1:It is very funny the other a couple podcasts ago. We were talking about drew. We're talking about when we gave our sons the talk or whatever, and I'm not going to take you through it. But I said yeah, I said after you had kind of had enough, I said, okay, now here's your phone yeah, you're ready for porn.

Oh my gosh, yeah tell him what you thought it was I don't remember what did. I think maybe I thought it was popsicles in the car, pretty much the same packaging as like individually wrapped popsicles you guys thought I was hiding popsicles in the glove box, not refrigerated.
Speaker 1:Every morning she goes out and puts a little stash just in case.
Speaker 3:I was like man.
Speaker 2:I would love like an orange popsicle right now but mama keeps some secret in the glove box that that's hilarious.
Speaker 1:You know what's funny? That car they're talking about that was probably the coolest car we ever owned, but she couldn't run the air conditioner because it made this high-pitched sound.
Speaker 2:No, you're talking about. No, you're talking about I couldn't run the heat. No, because remember they said mama, we hear the bird sound. Oh the bird sound and the hot smell.
Speaker 3:There was a really high-pitched fan squeak that we couldn't handle Another thing too.
