Tea Time: Overconsumption of horror genre has contributed to Gen Z's desensitization

Hosts Elizabeth Urban and Erin Gessert could go on and on about any topic, from politics to the latest movies. On their podcast "Tea Time," they cover weekly topics that change depending on school, the season or even their moods. In this episode, our hosts discuss Halloween and the proliferation of the horror genre in the entertainment world. Elizabeth and Erin believe that this is in part to blame for their generation's desensitization towards violence in general. Our hosts recognize that there is a difference between fictional and real-life-based stories, however they believe maintaining empathy through both types is necessary.
