About this listen

 There’s a reason the phrase “laughter is the best medicine” became such a popular thing to say. A good helps us feel better, but is also a way Gen is making sense of the world and their lives. In this episode of #GenZ, host Meghan Grace sits down with the podcast’s own editor — comedian, creative producer, and grief group facilitator Leah Kramer— to explore how Gen Z is using comedy as a form of critique, connection, and coping. From launching Crush Comedy to building Hot People Grieving, a peer-led space for young adults navigating loss, Leah shares how humor and creative expression have helped her — and her generation — process the world with both depth and levity. Together, Meghan and Leah unpack: Why Gen Z humor is more than dark jokes and meme culture How creativity can be a release, even when it’s messy or unpolished The role of community in healing and identity-building Why Gen Z “just does it” — but also talks about it, a lot This episode blends storytelling, social commentary, and some serious laughs — all through the lens of what it means to be growing up and creating in a world that feels like its on fire.
