The kids want tin can phones. Gen Z is buying vinyl at rates we haven’t seen since 1983. And somewhere in the middle of all that, AI quietly became everything.
Meseidy and Rachel skip the Iran cycle this week to talk about what’s actually shifting underneath it — the pull back toward analog, and the tech disruption that’s moving faster than any generation before has had to process. They don’t agree. Meseidy’s cautiously optimistic that AI frees up time for real human connection. Rachel wants to know what gets lost in the trade. They push each other, they leave it unresolved, and they’re honest about the fact that nobody — including the people building the tools — really knows where this lands.
Also in this one: Virginia’s redistricting vote, a 90s-week family experiment, the wait-until-8th movement, and the Oklahoma principal who tackled a school shooter and got crowned prom king.
