Introduction to a new series on this podcast - one I've been intending to do for a while.
It's called Reactivities: Tales from Interesting Times.
Strauss & Howe originally called the cohort born between 1961 and 1981 the Thirteenth Generation, but the Coupland's "Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture" soon made it the preferred moniker. In Strauss & Howe's cyclical view, every fourth generation would have similar attributes, making Generation X similar (for example) to the Lost Generation born at the end of the 19th century.
These generations, which were seen as responding to the changes of the Awakening, were originally called "Reactive." (Later, archetypal representations were used instead, and Gen X became a Nomad generation - although, still, I think we should be either Schemers or Scoundrels, instead.)
This will be about the interesting times that such generations - and especially Generation X - lived through.
