    <description><![CDATA["Ugh, you're so weird." Teens and parents have one thing in common: they both think the other is weird. This podcast explores this tiny place of common ground, and ultimately reminds us all that weird is genetic. Teens and parents have valid critiques of each other. They also both struggle to empathize with the other's feelings. "Parents just don't understand!" teens tell us. "You'll thank me when you're older!" parents repeat. 

Join soon-to-be thirteen-year-old Jonah and his mother Caché (a storyteller in her early thirties and former teen parent) every Sunday while they demystify each other's weirdness. Mixing humor and compassion, Weird is Genetic is a podcast that explores heavy issues with an air of lightness and curiosity. Caché and Jonah explore the complexities of their mother-son relationship alongside conversations on a wide variety of topics: teen trends, life with autism and depression, gender, disability justice, fat liberation, race, queerness, Minecraft, drag race, 90 Day Fiancé, space exploration, and more. 

Each episode includes listener questions, a discussion of the argument of the week, a celebration of the week's funniest and sweetest moments, millennial and gen z trends, and guest interviews with family members, friends, and randoms we meet along the way!

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Jonah and Caché are podcasters! Hang out with this mother-son duo (both of whom are self-identified weirdos)  as they try to bridge the gap between parents and teens. In the very imperfect and earnest pilot, Jonah and Caché test out their episode structure, discuss the burden of perfectionism, and breakdown their argument of the week. Jonah calls Caché out on their agesim, gives advice on friendship drama, and we launch a very un-winnable contest. Listen to learn about 4/11/54 and be convinced of the magic of a classic PB&amp;J. It's messy, imperfect, and a bit strange, but it's us. Weirdos through and through. Each episode is just going to get better! Come hang with us! </p>]]></description>
