Show Notes
In today's episode of DPP - Chase and Sam are joined by filmmaker Charles Pinion [https://www.instagram.com/charlespinion/?hl=en] to discuss his 1988 film Twisted Issues.
Pinion's films — made during Gen X's heyday — revolve around skater culture, punk rock, DIY aesthetics and, in the case of Twisted Issues, maniac zombie killers with fencing masks.

After a year, your hosts are ready to wrap Gen X. Season One is at a close. What did we learn about the self-professedly forgotten generation? What has Banksy to do with the spirit of the age? And, most importantly we answer the question that started it all: how did the dirty girls end up in the K-Hive?
DPP is back, baby — and this time for an encore. Chase and Sam thought they'd round out the season — find a 'capstone', if you will — for the last year. That pediment takes the form of Chris Smith's fly-on-the-wall documentary American Movie (1999).
Fear the coming of the trilby. Yes, that's right — today, in the last episode of our first season, we're looking at Gen X accelerating towards middle age and a crash encounter with those coming up behind them: millennials.
