Why Gen X Had It Better

Bridget sits down with radio talk-show host and author, Dana Loesch, for a conversation about growing up Gen X, the freedoms they had that kids don’t have anymore, the role of technology in the development of the nanny state, what the constant ability to check on your kids does to parents, whether we’re training our kids to have no expectation of privacy from a young age, and how Gen Z are already so conditioned to censoring themselves and avoiding risks because they know their mistakes will live on the internet forever. They also cover Dana’s career path, how she went from journalist to radio host to gun rights advocate, growing up in public, whether your audience will allow you to change your mind, the impact of cancel culture, whether actual death is preferable to social death, and the modern social pressures that can lead women to ignore their protective instincts in favor of social accommodation.
