Descripción

In episode 72 of Twitty in the City, Twitty and THC break down why Gen X and Millennials were built different. They discuss old school playgrounds, tough childhood memories, growing up outside, and why younger generations might not survive the games older generations played. Dive into a hilarious debate about why Gen X and Millennials might be the toughest generations ever. From burning hot metal slides, brutal monkey bars, concrete under playground equipment, dirty socks, old-school parenting, and the legendary word “biffed,” they relive the childhood moments that made them tougher, quicker, and a little more reckless than today’s kids. 00:00 Welcome To Twitty In The City 03:08 Ruthless Old Playgrounds 05:49 Generations and Tech Progress 09:32 Fearless Kids Then and Now 15:56 Soft Ground and Learning Falls 19:07 Soft Playgrounds vs Reality 21:56 Social Media and Discipline 22:54 Takes a Village Parenting 26:22 Bark vs Concrete Playgrounds 29:12 Biffing and Ice Packs 32:17 Monkey Bars Olympics 37:17 Wrap Up
