I AM.
>> Stephen: I DON'T KNOW AND I WILL NOT ASK.
>> OKAY.
WHAT GENERATION DO YOU PLACE YOURSELF IN, HOW DO YOU
IDENTIFY.
>> THE BORING ANSWER IS THAT I AM IN A MICROGENERATION BETWEEN
AGAIN X AND MILLENIALS,-- GEN X AND MILLENIAL, I'M ZENILLIA, IF
YOU ARE BORNED BETWEEN 79 AND 81 YOU ARE IN BETWEEN.
>> Stephen: WHAT IS IT EXAWLED AN XENILLENIAL.
X-ENYAL.
WHAT ARE THE CHARACTERISTICS.
>> WE DON'T KNOW WE WHERE WE BELONG.
LIKE WE DON'T-- LIKE WE DON'T KNOW WHO TO COMPLAIN ABOUT
OR-- .
>> Stephen: WOW, OKAY.
>> ON TIKTOK THERE IS ALWAYS LIKE MILLENIALS MAKING FUN OF
GEN Z AND WE DON'T KNOW WHAT TO ROOT FOR.
AND THEN WE DIE BECAUSE WE THINK PEOPLE ARE GOING TO THINK WE'RE
GEN X.
AND THEN YOU KNOW, I WASN'T GOING TO NIRVANA CONCERTS AND
STUFF, LIKE YOU KNOW, I'M YOUNGER THAN THAT.
>> Stephen: OKAY.
I APOLOGIZE.
MY WIFE AND HAVE I THIS, I WON'T SAY PROBLEM BUT WE HAVE THIS
CHALLENGE, OF WHETHER WE ARE IN THE SAME GENERATION.
EFI WAS ALIVE WHEN TEN KENNEDY AND I WAS BORN AFTER THE DEATH
OF KENNEDY.
I MET A DEM OCTOBER FER THAT SAYS SHE IS BABY BOOM AND YOU'RE
GEN X, I SOMETIMES SAY TO HER, HONEY, YOU WOULDN'T GET WHAT I
AM SAYING.
BOOMERS DON'T UNDERSTAND WHERE GEN XERES ARE COMING FROM AND
WE'RE TEN MONTHS APART.
>> I'M SURE SHE LOVES THAT JOKE.
>> Stephen: YEAH.

TO YOUNGER PEOPLE?

>> Stephen: THAT IS A SURPRISING NARRATOR TO HAVE FOR
THIS YOUNG SOUTH ASIAN TEENAGE GIRL GOING THROUGH THESE MOMENTS
OF GROWTH.
WHO IS THAT ACTUALLY DOING THE NARRATION.
>> THAT IS TENNIS LEGEND JOHN McENROE.
>> Stephen: HOW, HOW DID JOHN McENROE BECOME FOR YOU THE
PERFECT PERSON TO DO THIS IN THIS TEENAGE COMMADRAMA.
>> THAT IS AN UNUSUAL CHOICE FOR SURE.
BUT THE CHARACTER OF DAVIE, THE INDIAN GIRL WE JUST SAW HAS A
VERY BAD TEMPER.
AND SHE LOST HER FATHER AND HER FATHER WAS A HUGE TENNIS FAN, I
THINK IT MIGHT BE AN INDIAN THING BUT CAME UP IN A
GENERATION WHERE McENROE WAS HUGE TO HIM.
AND SO I JUST REACHED OUT TO JOHN McENROE AND SAID DO YOU
WANT TO BE THE INNER VOITION OF THIS NERDY INDIAN GIRL.
AND HE SAID YES.
SO.
>> Stephen: GOOD FOR HIM.
>> AND HE JUST LOVED IT, YEAH.
AND HE'S GREAT AT IT.
>> Stephen: I LOVE THAT.
NOW I ALSO LIKE TO APOLOGIZE FOR EARLIER.
>> OKAY, I DIDN'T KNOW IF YOU WERE GOING TO BRING IT UP AND I
FELT BAD BRINGING IT UP.
>> Stephen: I THOUGHT YOU WOULD BRING IT UP BECAUSE IT
WOULD MAKE ME FEEL BAD.
>> I WAS GETTING CHANGED, IN A PAIR OF PANTS AND IN MY BRA.
>> Stephen: AND I DON'T USUALLY DO, THIS I USUALLY WAIT
FOR THE TBESES IN THE WINGS BUT I THOUGHT I WOULD JUST GO HEY,
HAVE A GREAT SHOW SO I POPPED THE DOOR OPEN, I KNOCKED BUT I
DID THAT KNOCK AND POP.
>> KNOCK AND POP, AND I WAS JUST SAYING LIKE THE WHOLE TIME, I'M,
I JUST, I DON'T HAVE ANY CLOTHES ON.
AND I JUST THOUGHT THE WHOLE TIME LIKE I WISH I HAD WORN A
SEXIER BRA.
BECAUSE I WAS LIKE YOU KNOW, YOU WORK HARD.

>> YOU KNOW, YOU SHOULD-- .
>> Stephen: THAT IS VERY THOUGHTFUL.
>> I WAS-- .
>> Stephen: SO FEW GUESTS, SO FEW GUESTS TAKE MY FEELINGS INTO
ACCOUNT WHEN I WALK INTO THEM UNDRESSED.
>> AND I WAS WEARING LIKE A GRAYK HAVE I A TEN MONTH OLD, IT
WAS LIKE A GRAY BRA, JUST BAD.
>> Stephen: I DIDN'T SEE A THING.
>> AND I'M THINKING WHOSE FAULT IS IT, IS IT THE PERSON WITHOUT
DOESN'T LOCK-- I SHOULD HAVEK LOD THE DOOR.
>> Stephen: IT IS ENTIRELY MY FAULT, I SHOULD HAVEK NOD AND
WAITED BUT YOUR TEAM WAS GREAT, THEY HURLED THEMSELVES IN FRONT
OF YOU LIKE I WAS AN ASSASSIN.
