This Isn't A Gen Z Vibe | 9/19/25

Gen Z would never communicate like this...

Political interview, media truth, guest deep dive, behind-the-scenes stories—Keith Malinak’s At the Mic: Deep Dive pushes past surface takes into what really shapes culture and politics. In this episode, Keith (with Brad Staggs and Rebecca) tackles Bitcoin and investments, environmental concerns like the “straw wars,” and how cultural differences show up in daily life and child rearing. They weave in personal updates, pregnancy realities, and tech nostalgia, then pivot to media sensationalism, political discourse, and what text messages can—and can’t—prove about big stories. Expect sharp jokes, viral animal detours, and a thoughtful look at ethics in genetic engineering (yes, even dodo talk), plus acts of kindness that cut through the noise. It’s curious, candid, and unapologetically authentic—engineered for viewers who value nuance over outrage and context over clips.
