Boomers Vs Gen Z!

SPIN sat down with Irish icon Colm Meaney and the wonderful Paul Reiser ahead of their upcoming film, The Problem With People.

The Film follows two estranged cousins, who having never met before, must try and put to rest a generation’s worth of family disputes – before they start another one!

There's a lot of Irish and American- ism throughout the film, so we tested the lads knowledge on the following Gen Z-isms...

When asked if they knew what the phrase "They ate that and left no crumbs" meant, Colm starred off into the abyss and Paul replied: "I would imagine it means exactly what it is, they ate that and there were no crumbs left."

Both Colm and Paul then starred off into the abyss when they learnt: "It's a person who has won an argument, worn a gorgeous outfit or did an amazing job."

 

 

Stunned Paul said: "We're learning all the time Colm."

When asked do they know the phrase "rizz" they both replied "no".

"It's short for charisma and is used to describe style and charm and was actually voted word of the year, so ya can add that to the list now."

"Wow Paul you're so rizz" Colm joked.

Paul joined in on the banter and said: "ya you're so rizz and you left no crumbs by the way."

It's safe to say their reactions where comedy gold!

The Problem With People is out in cinemas tomorrow the 8th of November.

For all the hottest entertainment stories, keep SPIN loud with Shannon Keenan on the hour everyday from 10am-5pm.
