#1922 A Feminine Centric Society
#1922 A Feminine Centric SocietyDigest
This podcast delves into the reasons behind the waning interest in history, particularly among women and young men. Adam Corolla and Dr. Drew discuss how the focus on cultural history and grievance-based narratives has overshadowed traditional historical accounts, especially those centered around battles and military events. They also suggest that the rise of a more feminine-centric society has contributed to this shift. Corolla proposes a theory about the fear of becoming part of the past, arguing that the constant evolution of technology and societal norms makes it difficult to relate to historical figures and events, creating a sense of vulnerability and mortality. This fear, he suggests, can make people less inclined to engage with the past. The podcast also explores the challenges faced by young men in modern society, including the rising cost of living, the lack of traditional motivators like discomfort and scarcity, and the shift towards experiences over material possessions. These factors, they argue, can contribute to a sense of disengagement and a lack of motivation.
