About this listen

We’ve talked about the rise of in-person events and “fourth spaces”—but today, we’re zooming in on the real engine behind this shift: the people who gather others and bring communities together. In this episode, Meghan Grace is joined by Andrew Roth, Gen Z researcher, Forbes 30 Under 30 alum, and Founder of dcdx and Offline. Together, they unpack how Gen Z is moving beyond algorithm-driven influence toward community-led, offline experiences—and what that means for brands, marketers, and changemakers alike. In this episode: Why Gen Z is burnt out on social media and hungry for in-person connection How dcdx’s research shows how young people feel “exhausted” by digital life The difference between influencers and hosts who create influence, and why that matters What is being done to support community builders and how brands can be a part of interest-driven communities How to build trust and connection without disrupting the vibe Learn more about Andrew and Offline: offlinetalent.com Reach out: andrew@offlinetalent.com Follow: @OfflineTalent on Instagram
