The Jordan Harbinger Podcast

Rikki Schlott, co-host of the Lost Debate podcast, joins Bridget as a representative of Gen Z. They discuss coming of age during the Trump years - a time when political polarization reached a fever pitch - and then how a pandemic changed the established norms on them. They cover Rikki's path after leaving college due to the pandemic, how she wants to bring a voice to the centrist Gen-Z perspective that exists but isn't reflected at all in media or social media, her worries about her generation's hostility to different vantage points and opinions, how her dad keeps her connected to a broader sense of history, her disillusionment with both the left and the right, and how the pandemic liberated a lot of young people from the achievement loop that they were stuck in, but also robbed them of very formative experiences in their lives.
