You’ve likely heard or read the term “Generation Alpha” over the last few years. In our second episode this season, Nathan and Nick are blessed to speak to the originator of that label, Dr Mark McCrindle; demographer, futurist and author; a man with his finger on the pulse of what is currently happening and is likely to happen down the track in Australia.
