  • Summary

  • With humor, respect and more than a little angst, a father and son reach across the Boomer/Millennial divide to make sense of a very tumultuous time in history. In ongoing conversation, they reflect upon a relationship that has played out over the 30 years that have brought the country and the world to unprecedented chaos and uncertainty. Spoiler alert: Only one of them is going to be around to see how this all turns out. And to lighten things up: conversations about the music, books, television and movies that define their respective generations.

  • Elon Musk: Toxic Visionary

    Elon Musk: Toxic Visionary
    Aug 31 2022

    As a college student with an interest in space exploration, Paul once admired Elon Musk. Here was a deep-pocketed individual determined to return Americans to space without the bloat and bureaucracy of government. 

    Then Musk found Twitter. And would not shut up on Twitter. And tried to buy Twitter. And may now destroy Twitter. While his rockets keep blowing up, and his self-driving Teslas keep killing beta testers.

    It's hard to keep a hero in the 21st century.

    Colonoscopy!!!

    Paul endures a way-too-personal life lesson from Tom, shared in the hopes that he won't make the same mistakes when his time comes. In the year 2042.

    Older listeners, however, will be well advised to listen in. This probing conversation will make you flinch, but (spoiler alert) everything is fine in the end.

  • Back to "The West Wing"

    Back to "The West Wing"
    Jun 29 2022

    Our first cultural exchange episode has us looking back at “The West Wing,” one of the last great TV series of the 20th century.

    The expertly made drama portrayed a presidential administration far nobler and accomplished than any actual administration we have seen since then.

    Now rendered a wistful fantasy, its honest portrayal of the sometimes-ugly business of running a country can still impress when viewed through a Millennial lens.
