The Center Is Not Holding - Elizabeth Matthew

Elizabeth Grace Matthew joins Bridget for a comprehensive conversation about the cultural chaos of modern America. Specifically, they discuss the infantilizing pitfalls of contemporary feminism, the dishonesty of the “soft” trad wife aesthetic, the performative nature of all the “ideals” people are consuming on social media, how the reality for most women lies somewhere in between stay-at-home mom and girlboss, and the dangers of gentle parenting. They also cover the siloing of media, why it’s hard to build an audience and be nuanced, ideas for protecting your kids from the insanity on the extreme left and the extreme right, what happens when politics become your religion, why we’re in a technologically facilitated dark age, faith, family, and the fight for sanity.
