Dr. Jason Johnson offers a sobering analysis of America's 40-year historical cycles, comparing our current moment to the 1920s-1960s era. Lurie & Dr. Johnson discuss the unprecedented nature of today's kleptocracy, the erosion of civil rights, and why this generation may not live to see the resolution of current struggles. The conversation touches on everything from Russell Wilson's reverse-Kanye journey to the reality that voting alone won't restore what's being dismantled. It's a raw, honest look at where we are and what survival—and joy—look like in turbulent times. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
