The Boomer Effect with Jerry and Rose

“The Boomer Effect” takes a look at generations that came before and after us in an effort to understand our differences and establish common ground. All durable and long-lasting civilizations have one thing in common; they respect the wisdom of their elders and do not mock it. Yes Boomers made mistakes- but we got a lot right as well. Part of getting it right is extending what we've learned to Generation Z, and Millennials. The great depression gave us a post World War II generation of adults determined to give their children everything that they didn't have. Maybe that was a mistake...

    Did Algorithms Kill the Social in Social Media?

    Social media was supposed to bring us closer. Instead, algorithms may be pushing us further apart. On this episode of The Boomer Effect, Jerry and Rose sit down with Jeff Dornik, founder and CEO of Pickax, to examine how social media has evolved from a tool for connecting with family and friends into an algorithm-driven system designed to capture our attention, amplify outrage, and keep us scrolling. Jeff argues that algorithms have increasingly replaced relationships—and that even free speech means little iftechnology determines who actually gets to hear it. We talk about the difference between freedomof speech and freedom of reach, shadow banning, the impact of social media on families, churches and young people, and whether today's digital culture is contributing to America's growing loneliness. From a Christian perspective, we also ask an important question: How can we use technology without allowing technology to use us? Jeff shares why he created Pickax, how it differs fromtraditional social media platforms, and what a healthier digital community might look like—one built around genuine connection, free expression and real relationships rather than engagement at any cost.

    Trump Action: Ending Burdensome Energy Regs

    Jerry and Rose are joined by Emily Greene Brey, PA State Director for Americans for Prosperity. When finding a solution to the affordability crisis, the first step is to figure out what makes life less affordable. The next step is to eliminate it. That’s what the Trump administration is doing by reducing the hidden tax on Americans - regulations. Let’s be honest - regulations are boring. They’re arcane provisos baked into legislation and buried in the Federal Register. But they’re hugely expensive. Trump’s deregulation agenda of cutting 10 regulations for every new one is paying off for taxpayers. Thus far it’s saved an average of $600 per person - that’s $2,400 a year for a taxpaying family of four. Now, Trump’s taking the biggest de-regulatory action in history by rolling-back the Obama administration’s outdated ‘Endangerment Findings.’ Ending these burdensome energy regulations will unleash the energy sector and make day-to-day life more affordable by continuing to lower energy costs.

    Capt. Jerry Coffee: Faith Beyond Survival in the Hanoi Hilton

    What gives a man the strength to endure more than seven years as a prisoner of war—and come home with his faith, hope, and love of country intact? In this powerful episode of The Boomer Effect, Jerry and Rose welcome Susan Page Coffee, founder of Beyond Survival and widow of the late Navy Captain Gerald "Jerry" Coffee, one of America's most respected Vietnam POWs. Jerry Coffee spent more than seven years imprisoned in North Vietnam's notorious Hoa Lo Prison—often referred to as the "Hanoi Hilton." Subjected to isolation, torture, and relentless psychological pressure, he discovered a truth that would define the rest of his life: God equals strength. Susan shares the remarkable story of Jerry's captivity, the secret brotherhood forged among American POWs through the famous tap code, the role of faith under unimaginable suffering, and how God transformed the question "Why me?" into the prayer, "Show me." Together, Jerry and Rose explore what "Beyond Survival" really means—not simply enduring hardship, but allowing God to shape suffering into purpose, courage, and hope. As America celebrates 250 years of freedom, this conversation reminds us of the extraordinary price paid by those who defended it and the timeless lessons their lives still teach us today.
