Memes and Meltdowns

When World War III starts trending on TikTok before CNN can even update their homepage, you know we’ve officially crossed into Gen Z territory.

In this episode of Old Enough To Know Better, E.G. Weiss rips into the viral chaos of WW3 outfit inspo, dance battle diplomacy, and “get ready with me to flirt with the enemy” videos… all while missiles are flying and real threats escalate.

But behind the laughter lies a very real concern: Have we meme’d ourselves into apathy? Is America emotionally prepared for conflict when its youth are dressing for it like it's Coachella?

Equal parts hilarious and horrifying, this episode dissects the psychological disconnection, generational contradictions, and national security implications of a country that jokes while the world burns.

Listen now. You’ll laugh, you’ll wince, you’ll question everything.
