Speaker 2 (00:04):
Start.

Speaker 3 (00:05):
I'm ready to party.

Speaker 4 (00:07):
The Elvis Duran after Party.

Speaker 3 (00:14):
It's the after Party Podcast. The party's over. We're cleaning up,
but we thought we'd just stay here at longer and talk.
Let's just go home. Okay, here, just absolutely coming. Someone
just can clean up after the party. We're done.

Speaker 5 (00:28):
No, Scotty Bee is here, yawning. Hello, Sorry, it is
a it's a great rainy Yonnie day. There's Danielle straight
Night is here. No Garrett and Scotty Hi, and of
course there's Gandhi.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
All right, so what are you? Are you a millennial? Yes,
you're a millennial?

Speaker 2 (00:49):
Yes?

Speaker 6 (00:49):
Where you were?

Speaker 3 (00:50):
Were you born?

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Ok?

Speaker 3 (00:55):
Nineteen eighty?

Speaker 7 (00:57):
All right?

Speaker 3 (00:57):
So your generation? Why is also non?

Speaker 7 (01:00):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (01:00):
Okay, so I guess Danielle your generation X? I guess
you're born seventy three.

Speaker 3 (01:07):
Yep, you're in there. Uh oh god, please don't call
me a boomer?

Speaker 6 (01:13):
Are you?

Speaker 7 (01:13):
Technically you are?

Speaker 2 (01:15):
I'm right on the cusp.

Speaker 3 (01:17):
You're right on the cusp.

Speaker 5 (01:18):
Boomers are between nineteen forty six in nineteen sixty four,
and I was born in sixty four.

Speaker 8 (01:25):
The generation spread, can I just say? Is crazy? A
twenty year spread. To say that all these people are
part of the same generation is wild to me, because
you grew up completely differently than somebody who was born
in nineteen forty six.

Speaker 5 (01:37):
Yes, well, I think I act different than most people
who were born in the same.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
Year I was born.

Speaker 5 (01:42):
Probably also, you know, I'm just a little more on
the silent generation was born between nineteen twenty eight and
nineteen forty five, and the Greatest Generation between nineteen oh
one and nineteen twenty seven. Oh okay, So I love
how they put us in these little pockets and we're
expected to act like the rest of them.

Speaker 3 (02:00):
You're like, you're saying, I.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
Guess it's a general characteristic that goes with some of these,
you know, generations.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
Because there are subsets of these others of these major sets,
right right, I'm a gen xer personally born in seventy four,
and I act and I take on the traits of
a gen xer. I feel like I am one of
the quintessential gen Xers. I had the same attitude toward life,
and I grew up with the same things, you know,
the same pop culture.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
I also think it should take into account who you
grew up with right, because my brothers were both gen xers.
But I'm technically I'm technically a millennial according to the.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
Or any eight or wait year where you're born. I
was born in nineteen eighty, so I'm right on the cusp.
But I grew up with people that were your Generation X.
It's clearly stated right here.

Speaker 7 (02:47):
Yeah, yeah, you're.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
Gonna make You're gonna make me a boomer. I'm gonna
make you a Generation X.

Speaker 8 (02:52):
Well, it's kind of what he's saying, though. I grew
up with immigrant parents, so I think it's very My
childhood was very than a lot of my millennial counterparts
as far as the media that we took in and
the way that we had to like interact with people
and our parents it was very different. They imposed their
immigrant status their lifestyle. Yeah, it was just a totally

(03:15):
different different thing for me.

Speaker 9 (03:17):
So, Garrett, you're a millennial millennial, jen Y, I think
our generation probably has the best of both worlds, where
we literally were one of the last generations to be
playing outside until the street lights came on. Uh, But
then we also grew up with technology like smartphones and stuff,
so we kind of see the best of both worlds.

Speaker 6 (03:38):
Like my kids. You know, they don't know what.

Speaker 9 (03:40):
It's like to go outside and play tag, you know,
on a summer night, because they have their iPads.

Speaker 6 (03:46):
You know.

Speaker 5 (03:47):
So you're a millennial, then Xeniel Xenio orzillennial Xeniel would
be the X E N I A L.

Speaker 6 (03:56):
Right, So anyone bore four, I'm eighty four.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
You know what, I say? This is stupid? Why because
it's just so stupid to put people in categories.

Speaker 10 (04:07):
Oh, I agree, who cares whatever, But I think there
are definitely generational differences that are highlighted because but.

Speaker 4 (04:19):
I don't feel a certain way categories is just stupid. Okay,
people are different in general, even if you scary and
I can be born in the same you know pretty.

Speaker 8 (04:30):
Much all yeah, he identifies as twenty nine.

Speaker 4 (04:32):
Right, but we're totally yeah, but we're totally different.

Speaker 5 (04:35):
So wait, wait, hold on, So Scotty B is what
generation X, but you act like you were born.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
In during the Great Depression.

Speaker 6 (04:45):
No, he's from the greatest generation.

Speaker 7 (04:48):
Got to cut those coupons, right.

Speaker 3 (04:53):
Let's return.

Speaker 5 (04:54):
I can't remember with the financial situation in the United
States going down the tubes. You've been through this during
the Great depression, paying money in your backyard to scott it.

Speaker 7 (05:08):
Maybe Mason Jars, I will say Generation Alpha, Mason Jars,
But year were you born?

Speaker 3 (05:15):
Mason Jars? Hello? What said scary? I was gonna say
Generation Alpha as fucked.

Speaker 8 (05:20):
I think everyone's fucked, especial ways every every generation.

Speaker 5 (05:24):
Let me play Generation Alpha. You're born between like twenty
ten and twenty twenty four today.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
Right, like my my nephews and my niece, they're screwed
because they're just so far gone. My nephew, Lucas is
fourteen and awkward, sits in his room with his head
set on.

Speaker 8 (05:39):
You are awkward at fourteen, fourteen year old is awkward,
Like that's what being fourteen is.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
You still are awkward?

Speaker 1 (05:47):
He doesn't, I mean, and then he only communicates with
his friends online through gaming with his head set on.

Speaker 7 (05:53):
We were no different, I mean, I said, with my
beeper spelling boobs, I mean saying.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
My god.

Speaker 5 (06:02):
Some people say Generation OFFHA is screwed because their parents
were screwed, right, well maybe, well no, they're saying that
just because the kids born today and he's kind of
screwed up. It's his fault or her fault. No, they're
saying the parents have a lot to do with that,
So it's your sister's fault.

Speaker 4 (06:19):
Oh my god, I mean to an extent it is.

Speaker 8 (06:21):
Millennial parents did a lot of this soft parenting stuff
that you know, my immigrant parents would be like, are
you joking?

Speaker 3 (06:27):
Please?

Speaker 4 (06:28):
Because nowadays think about it. Oh, your kid tells you
I'm gonna call difis like, that's the first way. Oh, totally.
Kids nowadays know that you cannot hit them.

Speaker 7 (06:40):
My daughter says it all the time, Thank you.

Speaker 4 (06:42):
Scotty's kids says it.

Speaker 7 (06:43):
All call child protective services.

Speaker 3 (06:46):
Yes, they're going to dine you out like that. They
can all call the cops on you. And these protective
services not only when they say it, they do it.

Speaker 6 (06:53):
They do it on the cell phones that they have.

Speaker 4 (06:56):
Get you cannot get chased around with a wooden spoon anymore.
It's not going to happen.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
I felt like that was good for me. It was discipline.
I feel like I'm a better person today. You didn't
feel like like that when they were doing.

Speaker 4 (07:08):
It to you.

Speaker 6 (07:09):
Please.

Speaker 5 (07:10):
I you know, mom, if you could hit me with
that spoon tonight when I get home, I really didn't
feel like I need that.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
Even when she said, like like she's gonna give me
a beaten a threat that the threat of an idea
of a beating what made me just.

Speaker 5 (07:25):
You say, okay, let's break this down beating. When you
say beating, did you actually get beatings? I mean no,
never did, but it was okay. So how can you
say the word beating when you never had a beating?

Speaker 1 (07:39):
If I ever listen, if I ever stepped out of
line and they chased me around the dining room table,
the threat of it, you know, I might have caught
a smack here and there, but never a spanking or
like taking you over the knee and like smacking your asses.

Speaker 5 (07:53):
I never, I never ever was spanked or slapped ever
ever in my house. But my friends, oh yeah, my
friends were. You were slapped a lot when you were.

Speaker 3 (08:02):
A kid, Oh for sure. I'm telling you.

Speaker 8 (08:04):
There are times now where I'm like messing with my parents.
We're fighting about something, and I think in my head
there's a chance I was going to make a movie.

Speaker 3 (08:10):
I'm where they would like properly put you over the
knee and do that.

Speaker 8 (08:15):
I had that way.

Speaker 4 (08:16):
I had that one way. My dad would just pick
me up, and he was so much bigger than me.
I would pee my pants sometimes, but it would be
my mom. He'd come home from work and my mom
would tell him, you need to give her a spanking whatever,
And my dad was like, what am I doing this for?
Like what did she do? Like he never even knew
what I did. And I think there was one time
he put me over his lap and like spanked my button.

(08:37):
That was it. I never got hit in my house, But.

Speaker 3 (08:39):
Think about it.

Speaker 5 (08:40):
Think about the process of actually committing physical violence against
your kid to make them better, right, I don't know,
so look, maybe you know it's not the case for everyone.
Like I said, I was never spanked, I was never slapped,
I was rarely yelled at. I think I turned out
to be okay, I mean, I don't. I'm like a
total delinquent.

Speaker 7 (08:59):
My dad would take his belt off and that's all
I needed.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
That's the same thing with me that the sound of
the belt buckle jingling still sends chills down my spine.

Speaker 3 (09:08):
Why it will you actually hit with that belt point?

Speaker 5 (09:12):
Why would that have a Pavlovian because of the effect
on you if you never were hit, Because.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
The threat of my dad standing there with his belt
in his hand always straightened me out.

Speaker 5 (09:22):
So the thought of that scared the ship out of me.
Oh my god, my dad had taken his belt all.
I'd be like, what are you gonna show me your wiener?
My dad got me pressure points? Did anybody get pressure points?
Why so my dad knew pressure points?

Speaker 3 (09:38):
Is he mister spock?

Speaker 6 (09:40):
Well, so he would get me from the back of
the neck like right here, Oh my.

Speaker 9 (09:46):
God, that would that would just like I didn't get hit,
but pressure points would just totally get me.

Speaker 6 (09:53):
And then like right right here in the side, like
right now, Oh my god.

Speaker 3 (09:56):
There's like some Jedi stuff going on there.

Speaker 6 (09:58):
What are you doing?

Speaker 7 (09:59):
You just gave me. You just gave me flashback because
I remember I told you my boss punched me when
I asked for a raise. He used to do that also,
he would come and grab I totally forgot all about that.
Would come up and grabbed me and hit me in
those spots hard, which which yeah, and the story he's
got working when I was like thirteen.

Speaker 6 (10:17):
For pharmacy, the pharmacy, the little five and dime story.

Speaker 3 (10:22):
Yeah, wait, and he got away with that.

Speaker 7 (10:24):
Sure it was the eighties.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
Oh yeah, the eighties. Is that your excuse? And I
got paid.

Speaker 7 (10:29):
I got paid cash. It wasn't like it didn't even
work there.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
Listen, there was an episode of Arnold Got a Spanking?
Did you see that one? It was a whole episode
about Arnold and mister Drummond had his spank Arnold's for being.

Speaker 7 (10:43):
A and then at the end, at the end they
gave the little you know, a little warning. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (10:48):
I did get soap in my mouth once, me too.
It was only one.

Speaker 7 (10:52):
I was iory though it didn't have much taste.

Speaker 4 (10:54):
Once, but I think I got it gross soap.

Speaker 3 (10:57):
And I never had if you said.

Speaker 7 (10:59):
A dirty word my mouth to wash your mouth out.

Speaker 3 (11:02):
Oh my god, I feel like I feel like I
was a little spoiled brat. I didn't get any of
this stuff. I don't want it. I never did.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
So my mom said, you know, they got hit regularly
growing up, and that's why they really didn't hit us.

Speaker 3 (11:16):
It's because they so. I don't know if that was for.

Speaker 7 (11:19):
A lot, yes, you know, you know, my dad told
me it made me cry, like apparently his father used
to beat the shit out of him, you know, And
on his deathbed, he cried to my dad and apologized
to him, you know, and it was like, Wow, there's
a whole big thing. And my dad always said, he said,
that's why I swore that I would never ever touch
you guys, and he never did. My father got the
same from my grandfather.

Speaker 3 (11:38):
All the all four kids.

Speaker 8 (11:40):
Got it, so I don't think I'll get that from mine.

Speaker 3 (11:43):
But they also they.

Speaker 8 (11:46):
Didn't beat the crap out of us, so I don't
think they on that path.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
Your parents ever pack your bags and call the memory
the bad boys and bad girls. So there were so
many times my mom packed my suitcase and put it
out on the porch and gore any minute.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
I think that's hilarious.

Speaker 5 (12:02):
Girls get home is they've got to pick up on
Fourth Street and you're next.

Speaker 3 (12:08):
All I had to.

Speaker 6 (12:09):
Do is just take the phone and realize no one
was on the other side of the phone.

Speaker 9 (12:12):
I was so scared not to get that on that phone,
because if I got on that phone, I was gone,
and you know, mind fuck.

Speaker 4 (12:17):
Eventually they would either say like we called them back
because I did something okay, or they would say they're
overpacked today, so they said maybe tomorrow they'll come and
get you.

Speaker 3 (12:26):
Maybe for get better. You're better tonight, they won't come back.

Speaker 7 (12:29):
You up, but it's so hard. But like, how do
you punish your kids now? It's so up taking your phone,
Like you can't even take their phones. It's so I
don't even know what to do.

Speaker 4 (12:36):
It is though, you got to take all the electronics.

Speaker 7 (12:38):
It's just so hard to discipline now because that's really
the only thing you can do.

Speaker 8 (12:42):
And it shows. You can see a generation of people
running around that have had zero discipline from anything, and
just we could have.

Speaker 4 (12:48):
It, you know when I you can really tell when
they're disrespectful to their teachers as well, because back in
the day, we would never have talked to our teachers
the way some of these kids are.

Speaker 3 (12:56):
I wouldn't either teachers now, No way, no way.

Speaker 5 (13:00):
All right, we're done here, but whatever you do, don't
go home and beat your kids tonight.

Speaker 4 (13:06):
Please don't not do that.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
