** This is a partnership episode originally recorded in collaboration with Singularity **

This week our guest is social psychologist, Jonathan Haidt, who has authored several of my personal favorite books including the Happiness Hypothesis, The Righteous Mind, and the Coddling of the American Mind. We're lucky enough to have Jon join us to discuss his just released Atlantic article entitled, '⁠Why the Past 10 Years of American Life Have Been Uniquely Stupid⁠,' which explores his upcoming book about social media.

In this episode we discuss the key points of this article, exploring what dynamics shifted in American life as a result of social media and the resulting impacts on our children’s mental health, on our politics, and on the fabric of society itself.

Visit ⁠TheCoddling.com⁠ or⁠ LetGrow.org⁠ for more information on raising and mentoring Gen-Z kids to be less anxious and depressed.

And if you wish to learn more about viewpoint diversity in academia, visit ⁠Heterodoxacademy.org⁠
