Generational Gauntlet: Top 5 Faves

Episode 35: 5 Unsung Heroes of the American Revolution

In honor of the 250th anniversary of America, this week's episode is completely different than usual. Today, it's just me. And this one isn't a true top 5, as all of these selections are worthy of a number one ranking. Instead, in honor of Independence Day, I am flying solo and giving you 5 (actually more) unsung heroes of the American Revolution. Whether you're about to fire up the grill, light some fireworks, or turning on the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest, give this one a listen to hear about some people that probably didn't make it into your high school history class. However, they really should have!

Episode 34: Top 5 Countries You Would Love to Visit

This week, I am joined by the first Baby Boomer in the podcast's history, my uncle, Gary (Gene) Nash. Gene is like the 1962 song by Lucky Starr, "I've been everywhere." We talk about some of his adventures, including working as an Alaskan fisherman. Then, we dive into the episode's topic, the Top 5 Countries You Would Love to Visit. Tune in to hear if a country on your bucket list made ours. This topic was requested by a listener.

Episode 33: Top 5 Favorite Dad Jokes

In honor of Father's Day, I am joined by two awesome dads, Tommy Postell (Gen X) and Calvin Glenn (Millennial). The three of us rank our Top 5 Favorite Dad Jokes. This episode had me laughing the most of any episode I have recorded. Sit back, listen to some jokes, and have some laughs (and probably some groans too)!

Episode 31: Top 5 Favorite Pop Groups

This episode, Nora, Gen Alpha, is back. To celebrate her birthday, she requested the Top 5 Pop Groups. This episode features a battle of two very distinct decades, the 90s vs. the 2020s, and sub-genres, R&B-style vs. Korean Pop. The father-daughter battle of wits and disagreements is strong in this one. Early Happy Bday to the podcast's Production Manager!
