"I'm not even sure if it's going to be a podcast. The only 'new' podcast I've found that I liked in the last year is Silent Generation (love them) but otherwise that space feels dead."
It's clear the Red Scare zeitgeist is over so what's next? · u/Sea-Doughnut2514 · ↑349 · 2025-03-13
"The Silent Generation accepted that they were old and that the younger generations were capable and intelligent, so were open to voting for politicians younger than themselves."
"It's understandable why their culture is a lot more enthusiastic about finance/entrepreneurship/"hustling" than previous generations - they haven't gone through anything as bad as the Great Depression (yet), but it's comparable to the conditions that made the silent generation relatively more conser"
"And recently I found Silent Generation (which is clearly red scare influenced) and can feel the vibe shifting away from irony poisoned RS contrarianism. Both of their podcasts make me appreciate the world I live in, they're more additive than reductive their cultural analysis"
"But I've found Nymphet Alumni and Silent Generation and have become obsessed with the format. Instead of the episodes just being cultural criticism (and reductive) they feel additive."
