    Jonathan Haidt: Why Did Our Kids Starts To Go Crazy in 2012?

    I sat down with social psychologist and bestselling author Jonathan Haidt to examine how overprotective parenting and unfettered access to social media have stunted the development of Gen Z. A decades-long obsession with safety has replaced unsupervised outdoor play with online binging—and now we’re faced with a younger generation that’s more anxious, less confident, and robbed of the independence and resilience needed to grow into capable adults. What will it take for America to raise free, competent, and happy children again? _____________________________________ Follow Jonathan on X (formerly Twitter): https://x.com/JonHaidt _____________________________________ Outline: [0:00] Introduction [0:49] The origin of “The Coddling of the American Mind” [2:13] What does it mean to be an adult?

    How the Government Hijacked the Internet - Mike Benz

    I sat down with Mike Benz, former State Department official and founder of the Foundation for Freedom Online, to uncover how government agencies, intelligence contractors, and Big Tech built the surveillance, propaganda, and censorship machine now reshaping the internet. Mike explains how child protection measures have evolved into weapons against free speech and online privacy, how the CIA influences the tech industry, and why you should still work to protect your personal data—even with so much already online. _____________________________________ Follow Mike on X (formerly Twitter): https://x.com/joelkotkin Watch Mike on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@mikebenzcyberofficial?si=x44aaPbJ4wGMExbE Learn more about Mike’s organization: https://foundationforfreedomonline.com/ _____________________________________ Outline: [0:00] Texas app store age verification law [23:05] How the CIA gathers mass biometric data [29:02] What is a “limited hangout”?

    The Middle Class Built Our Greatest Cities. Now They’re All Gone. - Joel Kotkin

    I sat down with Joel Kotkin, author of The Coming of Neo-Feudalism, to examine how America’s middle class is being erased and what that means for the future of civilization. Joel argues that we’re entering a new feudal order, where tech oligarchs and ideological elites control wealth, culture, and opportunity while ordinary families lose the ability to own homes, raise children, and build stable communities. We explore the roots of this transformation in collapsing birth rates, failing cities, and the dominance of a secular clerisy pushing increasingly extreme ideas. _____________________________________ Follow Joel on X (formerly Twitter): https://x.com/joelkotkin Learn more about Joel’s work: https://joelkotkin.com/ _____________________________________ Outline: [0:00] AI will change everything [9:44] The overeducated, underpaid class [19:29] AI destroys entry-level work [29:59] America is splitting in two [43:47] People are opting out of woke [58:34] Local government matters most [1:07:18] Class matters, but race doesn’t [1:18:43] Why can’t moderates win cities anymore?

    How To Be a Great Parent and a Great Boss - Robert Glazer

    I sat down with author, entrepreneur, and leadership expert Robert Glazer to talk about how defining your values creates effective individuals, families, and organizations. His new book, The Compass Within, is a modern parable about how to establish clarity and purpose in your career and personal life. Robert is also known for his criticism of the “two-week notice” corporate norm, instead advocating for a more thoughtful process that aligns the interests of employers and employees cooperatively, rather than making exits all about conflict. We discuss our shared experiences as parents and entrepreneurs, how AI will reshape the career landscape, and why defining your personal core values helps life make more sense and simplifies the dilemmas you will inevitably face. _____________________________________ Order a hardcover copy of The Compass Within and claim your free course: https://robertglazer.com/compass-dad-saves-america/ Follow Robert on X (formerly Twitter): https://x.com/robert_glazer _____________________________________ Outline: [0:00] Writing a modern parable about finding your values [7:01] How should we think about capacity and potential?

    Matt Kibbe on the Deep State, Fauci, and the COVID Coverup

    I sat down with Matt Kibbe, libertarian activist and founder of Free the People, to talk about his documentary series “The Coverup,” which exposes COVID-era malfeasance, America’s corrupt bureaucratic machine, and the failure of the “expert class,” best embodied by Anthony Fauci himself. Matt’s activism dates back to the early days of the Tea Party movement, where he took the tactics that leftists had perfected over decades and successfully wielded them for the anti-big-government, pro-liberty cause. Reinvigorated by COVID lockdowns and vaccine mandates, he sees hope in the new, anti-authoritarian coalition that transcends left-versus-right politics—it’s We the People versus the Deep State. _____________________________________ Follow Matt on X (formerly Twitter): https://x.com/mkibbe Watch “The Coverup”: https://www.blazetv.com/series/71poNfD6H4OK-the-coverup Learn more about Free the People: https://freethepeople.org/ _____________________________________ Outline: [0:00] Organizing the Tea Party wave [14:34] The new coalition crosses left and right [19:23] Activism, fundraising, and corporate corruption [25:44] Speaking out against COVID lockdowns [34:03] How “public health” was militarized after 9/11 [46:29] COVID could’ve been so much worse [48:40] Bureaucracy isn’t just wasteful—it’s dangerous [50:57] Pandemics and authoritarianism go hand-in-hand [53:09] “The science” is just technocratic fascism [58:59] Every pandemic is exaggerated to create panic [1:02:17] Is the “private vs. public” distinction actually real?

    The Sexual Revolution Ruined Millennials. Will Gen Z Get It Right? - Aleks Svetski

    I sat down with Aleks Svetski, author of “The UnCommunist Manifesto” and “The Bushido of Bitcoin,” to discuss why socialism fails, the fallout of the sexual revolution, and Bitcoin’s potential for our future. The Millennial generation was the test case for absolute gender equality—even to the point of ignoring biology—and now Gen Z is searching for different solutions, from full-blown communism to hard-core traditionalism. We dig into why socialists misunderstand the world, the need for values beyond economics, and I ask Aleks some questions I have about Bitcoin. _____________________________________ Follow Aleks on X (formerly Twitter): https://x.com/AleksSvetski Aleks on Substack: https://substack.com/@svetskiwrites ”The UnCommunist Manifesto”: https://a.co/d/icDKFRI “The Bushido of Bitcoin”: https://a.co/d/fjBEd8G _____________________________________ Outline: [0:00] “The UnCommunist Manifesto” [4:39] Will the Mamdani trend last?

    Peter Boghossian: Can We Still Find Common Ground in the Wake of Charlie Kirk?

    I sat down with philosopher and author Peter Boghossian to wrestle with America’s deepening fracture. Why are so many people cheering political violence, and what—if anything—can pull us back? Ideological capture throughout the education system has broken our engines of knowledge production, turning them into “indoctrination mills” and teaching young Americans to see opponents as existential threats. Is reform even possible at this point? Peter makes the case for burning it all down—or, more accurately, for making these institutions pay the cost of their vices and watching them collapse under their own weight. _____________________________________ Follow Peter on X (formerly Twitter): https://twitter.com/peterboghossian Peter on Substack: https://boghossian.substack.com/ Peter on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@drpeterboghossian/featured _____________________________________ Outline: [0:00] Charlie Kirk’s murder revealed a deep divide [5:11] Can we reform away political bias on campus?

    Bret Weinstein on Genetic Tribalism and the Global Backlash Against Jews - Part 2

    I sat down with evolutionary biologist Bret Weinstein to explore how evolution can help make sense of tribalism, religion, and the ongoing war in Gaza. He shares his experience commenting on the Israel-Palestine conflict and the simultaneous resurgence and weaponization of antisemitism, speaking both as a scientist and as an American Jew who doesn’t see his views reflected by either major camp. Bret warns against embracing our genetic programming for "lineage-against-lineage" displacement, rather than the collaborative spirit that built Western civilization. _____________________________________ Follow Bret on X (formerly Twitter): https://x.com/BretWeinstein Watch the Darkhorse Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@DarkHorsePod/featured Purchase a copy of “A Hunter-Gather’s Guide to the 21st Century”: https://www.amazon.com/Hunter-Gatherers-Guide-21st-Century-Challenges/dp/0593086880 _____________________________________ Outline: [0:00] Evolution of culture and religion [12:32] Antisemitism and conspiracy thinking [20:38] How Israeli policy impacts Jews globally [26:42] Nazi Twitter went mainstream [33:17] John’s take on Israel-Palestine [42:30] Bret’s evolutionary take on the Gaza War [52:26] How genes get into the future [1:01:08] Is Christianity evolutionarily adaptive?
