Episode Is Affirmation Replacing Mental Health? With Scott Newgent Cover

Beschreibung

A recent shooting in British Columbia kickstarted reaction across both the left and the right. Instead of reacting from a side, Adam sits down with Scott Newgent to talk through what actually happens when tragedy collides with identity, politics, and media incentives. Scott has been criticized by both conservatives and progressives for refusing to fully align with either camp. In this conversation, they talk about medicalization, mental health, cultural incentives, and why it’s become so difficult to have honest discussions without being pulled into a tribe. This isn’t about attacking a group or defending one. It’s about asking whether we’re still capable of having uncomfortable conversations without turning them into political weapons. If we can’t talk honestly, we can’t solve anything. — If you’d like to support Scott’s charity, Scream Louder, you can donate here: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/5JKM5L3PY7WPQ [https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/5JKM5L3PY7WPQ] Episode 42
