Are Young Males Disengaging from Society? - The Case of the the Incredible Disappearing Men - 084
In a conversation geared more toward culture than faith Jeff, Mona and Allen explore why young males are disengaging from society. Far from an agreeable conversation about things we can do to reverse this trend, this episode focused on nuanced disagreement about its primary causes. Between video games, easy access to pornography, education, economic factors and a host of other causes, is there a primary one? And more importantly, is there a solution? We finish the episode with a new segment called Staff Picks, where each host gives a few recommendations of things worth checking out.
