Kevin Ryan joins Bridget to discuss the ups and downs of a career in freelance writing. With AI churning out soulless content, they defend the gritty, human struggle of writing, why writing should be hard, and breaking the myth of the tortured alcoholic writer. They cover why everyone should have some revolutionary instincts in their 20s, why the loss of trust in media might be healthy, how the center has become so centerless, why some of Kevin's favorite philosophers and writers are critical theorists and post-modernists, how the Left became the Right and the Right became the Left, why journalism should still have gatekeepers, Gen X's moment in the sun, how to give kids the value and thoughtfulness they deserve, and how Bridget became the Forrest Gump of the culture wars.
