About this listen

America is facing a growing crisis — and it’s hitting young people the hardest.

In this episode of Independent, Paul Johnson, Henry Thompson, and Bob Robb dive into the real economic anxiety shaping politics today, from AI-driven job disruption and rising costs of living to declining faith in education, homeownership, and opportunity.

We explore how artificial intelligence is changing the job market, why young men are becoming a key political swing group, and how economic stress can fuel radical politics and social unrest. The conversation also examines the broader cultural and global context — including antisemitism, nationalism, foreign policy shifts, and America’s changing role in the world.
