Gen X Nostalgia vs Gen Z Nostalgia

[@radgraham]

If you have Gen Z aged kids, what do you think their nostalgia will be?

[@chaddeez8446]

Your son has good taste and he can think for himself. Like he said, most kids are zombies now. Appreciate you two! Keep up the good work.💪🤘🔥

[@radgraham]

@chaddeez8446 thanks so much brother. Appreciate it.

[@Michael-dk5if]

Thanks to your videos, especially with your son as a sidekick, many memories come back to me of the great time we had growing up and so much we try to share and pass on to the next Gen.

[@radgraham]

You're welcome Mike. Thank you 🤙🤙

All my favorite nostalgic things, almost put me in a hoarding category...lol. Been decluttering from those things as ive gotten older is very heartbreaking but i cant take it with me so it was much needed. Ill still get sad thinking of the stuff i let go of...those sentimental things. And being the child of antiques dealers, i also have attachments to those things as well...equals a lot of layers of nostalgic stuff. Great video.

[@radgraham]

@danielleleyshon-m9o thank you🙏 Just glad between my 3 kids they will take and preserve these items. Hopefully they pass them on as a form of history. I have sold some items and yes it really strained me mentally doing it lol🤙🤙

It's a need to feel feral and free. To have a piece of a moment in time where you can stay young forever.

[@radgraham]

@@dreadassembly4087 absolutely 🤙🤘

i was lucky enough to be born at the beginning of gen z in 98. i have lots of nostalgia for the media i consumed back then. the 2010s i have some nostalgia for but mostly friendship memories. but growing up i was always into older movies,music etc. i say im lucky cuz i was able to understand what life was like before cell phones and tech took everything over. we didnt have a computer for awhile and they where slow anyway back then. so going outside is what i did mostly. we would go to friends houses to use consoles we didnt own. everything is so connected these days alot of that stuff is lost

[@radgraham]

@@NoahWalton-z7q I agree. It's great you experienced those things growing up. Gives you a better perspective on life🤙

I may be a Millennial born in ‘94, but both of my parents are Gen X who dropped out of high school to give birth to me. I am also nostalgic for the 80s and 90s since this world isn’t that interesting these days. I thought of myself as some “Proto-Gen Z” kid even though I wasn’t 100% like your son and other Gen Z’ers.

[@radgraham]

@OwenConcorde my oldest was born in 93 and he of course grew up with all our Gen X stuff and still holds on to some Gen X things🤙

[@erldude]

Superman or batman. Good tease. Haha that cracked me up. I got the poison, I got the remedy. I got the poison, the rhymical remedy. He-man was awesome. I had those as a kid but don't have anything anymore. Used to collect baseball cards. The only thing I kinda collect now are simpsons stuff. That was a fun video. What is your favorite thing u have collected? U may have a video about that already

[@radgraham]

@erldude man that's a hard one. My Masters of the Universe for sure. Then I'd say my gaming consoles. Still hard to say though. I love them all 😆

[@erldude]

@radgraham I hear ya man.

[@x7heDeviLx]

“Will GenZ have any nostalgia?” What an odd thing to say 😅obviously

[@chaddeez8446]

Just joined! I had to now.😂

[@radgraham]

@chaddeez8446 lol thanks. I will start putting out some members only content this week🙏

[@basicfacekick]

I think nostalgia starts to get muddy after the 00's. What's iconic to the 2010s? 2020s? What's memorable and distinct and charming? The 60's had a vibe. 70's, 80's, of course. The 90's too. It starts to peter out in the 2000's.

[@radgraham]

@@basicfacekick agreed. Do you think it was cell phones and social media that took that away?

[@chrisskalski7292]

Let`s face it, Gen Xers had the coolest cartoons, toys, music and movies. A big reason is the fact that Disney didn`t dominate children`s entertainment in the 1980`s. Disney was a company in transition. This opened up a whole new world of creators to take over that space.

[@radgraham]

@@chrisskalski7292 we sure did have the best of all those🤙🤙

[@norwegianblue2017]

It's kind of hard to know what you will have nostalgia for when you're still growing up. Usually it starts to hit you in your 30s, all those things you took for granted as normal day to day living. I think a lot of us Gen Xers also make the mistake of thinking we had the best time to grow up in. A lot of Boomers will say the 60s and 70s was the best time. My dad was born in 1940, and he absolutely loved growing up in the 40s and 50s.

[@radgraham]

@norwegianblue2017 yeah my mom has no complaints about her growing up in the 1950s.

[@tamimendez2473]

Hi Roth and Rad 😁

[@courtneypuzzo2502]

younger Gen Z maybe but the older gen Z who are on the cusp of turning 30 now def still have some of the same likes as later millennials born in the mid 90s did I'm a first Cohort Millennial who turns 40 in March and loves some of the same music Gen X and my baby boomer parents did Motown British invasion etc. ex Temptations My Girl which reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 on 6th March 1965 after its Christmas 1964 release

[@radgraham]

@courtneypuzzo2502 yeah my daughter Is 21 and has a lot of different things from a child she collects. 🤙

[@gregharn1]

None of their own. I'm a older millennial & have nostalgia for for some of the 80s, 90s & early 2000s. That time period just has better entertainment all around.

[@radgraham]

@@gregharn1 you are 💯% correct! In my opinion 🤣🤙🤙

[@norwegianblue2017]

I remember seeing all the cool toys and video game consoles coming out in the 90s when I was in my 20s and thinking "where the hell were all these awesome toys when I was a kid?".

[@radgraham]

@norwegianblue2017 yeah technology definitely turned a corner in the 90s🤙
