Rated Gen Z: Where Real Talks Get Real
Forget polished interviews and surface-level chats. This is the podcast that cracks open the Gen Z experience—unscripted, unapologetic, and unfiltered.
Each episode dives deep into the minds of 18-24-year-olds, exploring their dreams, struggles, and perspectives that most people never hear. We're diving into the chaos that defines a generation everyone talks about but nobody actually listens to. Think less interview, more uncensored confessional.
This isn't just a podcast. This is a generation speaking.

In this episode, you’ll meet Pepper, an 18-year-old with a love for planes, a flair for music, and a thoughtful take on navigating young adulthood today. Pepper talks candidly about the realities of college applications, the highs and lows of participating in band and choir, and the challenges of finding a college that feels safe and welcoming as a trans student. There are genuine moments of joy—like making Allstate Choir—and lots of honest conversation about choosing a career that fits, moving between states, and the everyday balance of passion and practicality. With warmth and openness, Pepper shares what friendship, family support, and self-discovery look like alongside the complexities of growing up queer in today’s America. If you’ve ever felt unsure about your next steps, or just want to hear what life looks like from Gen Z’s perspective, this episode is an easy and inviting listen.
This is our Season 1 finale! Season 2 of Rated Gen Z kicks off in the new year—see you in 2026!
