Our 200th Episode! Fears of the Next Generation. A Special Visit with our Asher!
It's our 200th episode, and we have something very special for you!
We visit with our Asher - the one who started it all for us, the one Susan talked about in her viral TED talk.
Now a transgender man, with a transgender wife, and a child... what a journey it has been!
We talk about that today, and especially about the fears of this generation. From the financial crisis to the housing crisis to COVID to the current administration to AI... their worldview and their fears have been deeply impacted.
What are they afraid of? Where do they find hope - for them and for those who come after? And how we can best understand and help?
