Show notes

This week on the podcast… Amazon’s Wizard of Oz moment. Plus, Trevor invents a new dating app, why Josh has the perfect name for big corporations, and Christiana announces she’s raising the first Nigerian president of the United States. But the big idea Trevor, Christiana, and Josh get into: masculinity, violence, and why young people, especially young men, are harming others out of a genuine sense of alienation. And Josh makes a case for compassion (let the record stand, he’s no incel!). Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
