Podcasting with GenZ
Hosted by Sophia Lander · EN
Do you ever wonder what a generation impacted at birth by global surges in terrorism, at adolescence by a financial crisis, and at adulthood by a global pandemic? Well, we do.
We want to know what Gen Z is thinking and more importantly how they are thinking. This podcast will introduce you to current students from around the world and will discuss how their global perspective is and will shape the future.

Interview with Sara Mušek
Apr 16, 202100:17:50Tap to summarizeWelcome back! Today I interview Sara Mušek from Zagreb, Croatia. I didn't know very much about Croatia or Croatian politics but Sara clued me in. In a country only about 30 years old, Sara tells me there is massive corruption in Croatia and the biggest problem lies in that the population is not very politically active.
