151. From The Metaverse To Flip Phones

02/17/23 • 27 min

Mixing Up Midlife

Terri & Melissa are pondering the metaverse and the anti-metaverse. While the future of AR & AI are expanding at breakneck speeds, Gen-Z is taking comfort from things in the past, namely flip phones and digital cameras from the 90’s. Speaking of things from the 90’s, low rise jeans, butterfly embellishments, cargo & parachute pants are also making a reappearance. This year’s Super Bowl ads had a fair number focused on & featuring women of all ages.
