Shownotes Transcript

The economy is soaring. Stocks are at all time highs. Inflation has been tamed. Yet young people are angry and anxious. This episode isn’t about “OK Boomer” inter-generational warfare — it’s about trying to understand the angst driven by economic inequality, the blowback from the “attention economy” and social media-induced loneliness. [Episode 36]
