It's back... and this time we've brought reinforcements.

One year after launching The Gen X/Z Exchange, we're celebrating our first birthday with a rematch of one of our most popular episodes: The Gen X/Z Quiz.

When we started the podcast, we thought the biggest differences between Gen X and Gen Z would be our attitudes to work, relationships and modern life.

A year later, we've discovered we actually agree on far more than we expected.

But our cultural reference points?

That's another story...

Joining us for this anniversary special are returning guests Charlie Perkins and Carl Scutt (from our most downloaded episode on CV writing), alongside some new faces, as Team Gen X and Team Gen Z battle it out once again.

Can you beat both teams?

Play along and test how much you really know about the generation before—or after—your own.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• Which generation knows more about the other's music, TV, films and historic moments

• Whether Gen X can identify modern internet culture, social media slang and viral trends

• Whether Gen Z knows anything about Live Aid, classic soaps, when the UK used to score at Eurovision, and how primitive 1980s technology was compared to today's

• How the final question produced the biggest surprise of the entire quiz

Listen in to hear if Gen X can even the score from last time.

Along the way you'll learn a surprising amount about both generations, laugh at some spectacular wrong answers, and maybe realise that we aren't actually as different as we sometimes think.

One year ago, this quiz helped launched our podcast. One year later, we're running it again to celebrate - with some familiar faces, a couple of new ones, and exactly the same mission: helping two generations understand each other just a little bit better.
