Badlands Book Club - Book 3 - The Fourth Turning: Chapter 10, Part 2
Description
CannCon and Ashe in America continue their deep dive into The Fourth Turning, unpacking Chapter 10, Part 2 with energy, humor, and hard-hitting analysis. This episode breaks down the generational archetypes, 13ers entering midlife, Millennials stepping into adulthood, and the emerging New Silent generation, and explores how each group shapes (and survives) the unfolding crisis era. Ashe and CannCon reflect on the accuracy of Strauss & Howe’s predictions, from millennial collectivism and workplace shifts to Gen X’s hardened pragmatism and the rising urgency for societal reconstruction. With sponsor breaks, personal anecdotes, boomer vs. 13er commentary, COVID-era parallels, and spirited discussions about culture, economics, duty, and the looming generational handoff, the hosts weave the book’s themes into the present moment. This session marks the near-completion of the book, setting the stage for the final stretch of the series and the transition into the next title in the club.
