What’s up with Gen Z?

New research has found that young people seem to be disillusioned
with life in Britain, so Amol (Millennial) and Nick (Baby Boomer)
are joined by Labour MP Nadia Whittome (Generation Z) and former
Conservative minister Lord Willetts (Baby Boomer) to discuss why
that might be - and what can be done about it.


And Nick explains how he discovered that his X/Twitter account
had been hacked after a tweet was posted saying that he and the
Today programme had launched a new cryptocurrency.
