Welcome to Episode 11 of the Laid Off Lads Podcast!

We kick off this weeks pod with a mild intervention addressing Phil’s penchant for walking away at least once every pod and his excessive yawning during Pod 10. Did he learn his lesson? He walked away 25 minutes later.

In this week’s Cool Sh*t of the Week segment we briefly touch on an article Ferris found about a British woman who gets paid a boatload of cash to share her flatulence online. This is the world we live in, people. Then we do a deep dive into the crazy story of rapper, Tekashi 6ix9ine.

Next we extend our recent streak of talking about controversial subjects. Taking a page from one of Phil’s current college assignments, we not so delicately delve into the characteristics of each generation and our feelings about Gen X through Z. We can’t wait to see the final grade on Phil’s assignment based on his very strong feelings about a particular generation. Which generation is it? Tune in to find out!

What’s The Topic for Pod 11? Texting! We tackle the intricacies of the most dominant form of communication in today’s society. Does a period at the end of a text mean something more than no punctuation at all? Why does Phil sound like a douche every time he texts? One space or two after a period? Gif…is the G a hard G or a J sound? Remember the hard elevated keys of the old Blackberry phones? Boyce does, and he misses them. Plus, each of our most commonly used emojis.

What else did we cover this week? Do you care if your phone is listening to everything you say? Because it is! Farting/Burping in front of your significant other. And is it really illegal to share your streaming passwords? Because we would never do that.
