''Generation Goblin'' is a comedy podcast run by two siblings, Henry and Zip - self-described as an experience wherein they 'use snippets of the internet to act as springboards for discussions that don't have any practical value, but are pretty entertaining'. These snippets of the internet can range from Yahoo Answers, Reddit threads, Website/EBay listings, and other news items and articles - really, anything they can dig up and have a good laugh at. Of course, this tends to lead to them going very OffTheRails very quickly.

!!This podcast contains these tropes:
* {{Catchphrase}}: 'It's podcast magic!' - frequently used when WillingSuspensionOfDisbelief needs to be employed for whatever auditory goof they're playing around with to land home.
* ColdOpen: Every episode opens with a teaser clip from some bizarre taken-out-of-context joke from somewhere within the episode.
* DarkerAndEdgier: In the first episode, while discussing the Film/DoraAndTheLostCityOfGold trailer, Henry and Zip, apropos of absolutely nothing, start spiraling off on a wild tangent about how the trailer that they saw involved a FoundFootage horror film in which Dora brutally and systematically kills off the cast and crew of the entire movie. This goes on for several minutes, with every new detail added throwing the conversation further off the rails.
* DreamingOfThingsToCome: A lot of the Dream Interpretation segment invokes this, with the siblings frequently claiming that dreams submitted on Yahoo Answers are prophetic or symbolic in some way.
* EpilepticTrees: A theory that they develop in episode three explains why the stars in Van Gough's 'Starry Night' don't look all that much like actual stars. It was ghosts. [[SupernaturalLight He was painting the ghosts.]]
* OurGhostsAreDifferent: A lot of the haunted/creepy listings on EBay that Henry digs up tend to fall under this category, because, as is frequently established, a lot of the things that go up for sale in the 'haunted' category there are really, ''really'' bizarre.
* RunningGag: Podcast Magic, of course - and the fact that Henry is thirteen years old and, as such, a literal child.
* ShoutOut: Frequently, to media that Henry and Zip tend to like (or want to rant about, for whatever reason), but most notably to Podcast/MyBrotherMyBrotherAndMe - when they realized that they had inadvertently answered one of the same Yahoo Answers questions that the [=McElroys=] had already featured on their show.
* SiblingTeam
* TheStinger: Every episode closes with either Henry or Zip announcing cheerfully what they're going to be doing on the next episode, which is invariably completely ridiculous.
