When was the last time you made a new friend… in real life, not from LinkedIn, not from a networking event – just, a fun activity? Gen Zs seem to be leaning into what’s called “IRL events”: not a planned networking mixer, not organized speed dating; but a bread making class, sushi rolling courses and sports where you get paired up with strangers.  Audrey, Emaad and Ryan talk about this new digital generation putting down their devices, and are now combining passion and interest with the desire to meet new people.    Presented by Audrey Siek, Ryan Huang and Emaad Akhtar Produced by Audrey Siek Edited by Trisha Yeong Photo and music credit: Pixabay & its talented community of contributorsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
