What if understanding the effects of pornography could empower people to make healthier choices? In this episode, I speak with Parker Hymas from Fight the New Drug, a nonprofit dedicated to raising awareness about the harmful effects of pornography through research, facts, and personal stories. Parker dives into the organization’s mission to educate people — especially young audiences — on how porn impacts the brain, mental health, and society. The conversation explores the rise in pornography consumption during COVID-19, its broader societal effects, and the critical role parents play in guiding their children toward healthier habits.
