Prince Edward Island, Canada
(Before proceeding, please take note that there are a few F-bombs and assorted bad words kicked around casually throughout this week’s podcast. Listener Discretion is advised)
Yup, your eyes have not deceived you. We’re taking a wee break from the Fabulous 50s this week celebrating 70 years of Rock N Roll (1956-2026)
And have landed right smack into the splat of CONTROVERSY!
Comedy In The 21st Century (or lack thereof)
Jimi Hendrix said it first: If 6s were 9s. Everything’s upside down today. We here at The Generation X Offender podcast are every bit as much a product of the 1960s as we are of the 1980s (ouch!)
In the 1960s Universities were hotbeds of critical thinking, activism, higher learning and radical politics.
Today most comedians won’t go near them.
Why?
The New Left has gone so far left they are now the extreme right.
The New Left does not support Freedom of Speech

Irony’s a bitch).
As previously stated, this Gen X kid was raised in the shadow of the Civil Rights Movement, tirelessly fighting AGAINST racism…
This Gen X kid was raised in the shadow of the bra burning feminist movement, tirelessly fighting AGAINST sexism…
This Gen X kid was raised in the shadow of the burgeoning Gay Pride movement, tirelessly fighting AGAINST any form of discrimination based on sexual orientation…
The New Left is clawing back these societal gains born out of the radicalism and activism of the 1960s…
And we’ve got something to say about it!
THAT and boobies too. With a side nod to the often beguiling male member…
All this AND MORE!
