About this listen

Recorded 6/20/2025. For the first summer special of 2025, Jeremy is joined by Webster Heffern and Ketra Oketcho for a discussion of Jonathan Haidt's book "The Anxious Generation". The book presents the problem of how kids are now having "phone-based childhoods" instead of "play-based childhoods", and this is causing a lot of problems in society because of this newer change in children's development. The three discuss their thoughts on the major points of the book, including the solutions that Haidt provides in tackling the problem.
