Is the financial landscape rigged against younger generations? Discover how the widening gap between income and property prices has turned homeownership into a near-impossible dream for many.

From skyrocketing rental prices to the sobering reality of high-income individuals struggling to afford homes, we offer a deep dive into the economic disparities that stoke intergenerational conflicts.
Ever wondered what happens when you host a 16th birthday bash and it turns into a comedy of errors? Let us regale you with the tale of a party that spiraled into a gastroenteritis outbreak, hitting everyone, including us parents. And that's not all—relive the chaos of COVID-era workplace gatherings, where safety measures often fell short, leading to unintended virus spread. We also explore the phenomenon of "COVID babies" and the expenses of constant testing, all with a comedic twist that will have you chuckling.
How much did our parents really let us get away with? Join us as we scrutinize our own past behaviors and how they shape our hyper-vigilant parenting today. From the paranoia of monitoring our kids' potential misdeeds to the bewildering experience of teaching a teenager to drive, we cover it all. Reminisce with us about simpler times when getting a driver's license was a breeze, and laugh along as we share our own youthful driving mishaps. This episode is packed with insights, humor, and a hefty dose of nostalgia that any parent—or former teen—will find relatable.
