Jonah Goldberg is a syndicated conservative columnist, political analyst, commentator, podcast host, and author of Bridget's Bible: Suicide of the West. Jonah shares how his upbringing in a media and politics-heavy household shaped his future, and gave him a realistic perspective about politics and the media that most people don't have. He and Bridget discuss the dangers a generation of children pose when they've been raised to believe that their feelings are the only source of authority they need, why middle-aged managers are terrified of their "woke" 20-something staffers, and how fragility is being taught rather than mental toughness. They cover young conservatives being led to believe that it's cool to be a**holes, why not allowing people to grow or change their positions is not a good practice, how Americans are much richer than they realize, and why Twitter makes you feel like you're living in a small town where everyone's in your business. Check out his podcast The Remnant.
