dadcast noun [C]
UK /ˈdæd.kɑːst/ US /ˈdæd.kæst/
a podcast created by a father that discusses topics thought to be of interest to other fathers, such as parenting and family life
Welcome to the age of the “dadcast”: ubiquitous, lucrative – and a bit boring … The entrepreneurial spirit that sparked the dadcast revolution is not objectionable in itself. But there is something deadening about the way it reveals the podcast market to be going.

Zalpha noun [C]
/ˈzæl.fə/
someone who was born during a time period between the end of Generation Z and the beginning of Generation Alpha
You may have heard of Generation Z and Generation Alpha, but have you heard of a Zalpha? A Zalpha is a term used to describe those born on the cusp of these two generations. They embody a blend of characteristics and experiences from both Generation Z, who grew up during the digital age and witnessed the rise of social media, and Generation Alpha, who are considered true digital natives, having been born into a world with even more advanced technology.

club sandwich generation noun [S]
UK /ˌklʌb ˈsæn.wɪdʒ dʒen.əˈreɪ.ʃᵊn/ US /ˌklʌb ˈsæn.wɪtʃ dʒen.əˈreɪ.ʃᵊn/
a way of referring to the group of people who have parents, children and also grandparents or grandchildren to take care of
The term “sandwich generation” was coined in 1981 by social workers. What I also see in my clinic is what Carol Abaya, an elder care expert, calls the “club sandwich generation”. This refers to adults who are supporting their ageing parents, their adult children and young grandchildren. This also includes a section of young people, who are supporting their parents, their grandparents and their own children.

I definitely want to use every single one of these words, because all of them are from Cambridge University, which is a very famous and good one. I hope people start using these words like I did!
