Hosted by Gen Zers and high schoolers, Paul Lohmann and Jimmy Shi, We Are Z is a unique podcast that covers a vast variety of topics from the perspective of Generation-Z. While Jimmy Shi was born and raised in China before moving to the US to pursue higher education, Paul Lohmann was born in Los Angeles and has moved across the nation his whole life. The two are now classmates in a high school at Franklin, Tennessee, and love to play golf in their free time. With their podcast, the duo aims to present an authentic perspective of Gen Z, and what makes them different, while breaking all stereotypes associated with the young generation. Despite coming from two different countries, cultures, and societies, Paul and Jimmy share one common goal: to break the barriers between generations.
The objective of the podcast We Are Z is to unveil the often misunderstood generation in front of the whole world, and show that their generation is more than just Snapchat streaks and Instagram stories. Paul and Jimmy explore interesting subjects through the lens of Generation Z while providing their own interpretations.
