I bet there's a little conversion of the last man.

Just in case I'm wrong.

I mean, it's interesting what you said about my own evolution. A lot of that's driven by my kids. So when you have kids, you see how they operate. You see how they read, what they consume, what they watch. I'd switch to YouTube because I could see none of them watch TV and none of them buy newspapers. So I thought, whoa, hang on.

And they're all like in their 30s, in their 20s, and none of them are doing the stuff that I did. What are they doing? Oh, they're watching this thing called YouTube. Okay, how about becoming a YouTuber? Literally as simple as that. They were like, Dad, none of our friends watch this TV stuff, right? It's all through YouTube. You realise that? Get onto YouTube, Dad. And now they all watch it.

Oh, I think kids not only keep you fresh and alive and having a purpose, but they also make you less narcissistic, a streak I've certainly had over the years. because ultimately it's about them, not you. And when you become a parent, you understand that and you become much more concerned about their welfare and what's happening to them than you do for yourself.

It's a good thing for people to become parents for that reason, if nothing else. It's the ego's solution, I can tell you. But secondly, in terms of what I care about for them, I think it's a lot of things. I think that I always try and remind them Because all of their friends have anxiety issues and things. It's interesting. It's a generational thing. They're getting bombarded.

I mean, that Jonathan Haidt book from 2010, how smartphones, the moment they became smart, started bombarding kids with all this negative dopamine stuff all the time. I think it's a real problem. And I think that young brains get scrambled by the constant negativity. I think about when I was young, there were wars going on, but you never saw any of the graphic stuff. You had no way of seeing it.

It wouldn't be shown on the relatively sanitized news broadcasts. There was no internet. There were no phones, nothing else. The newspapers wouldn't run the really gory stuff. Now, if you go on X in the middle and tap in Ukraine or Gaza or whatever, the most horrific stuff comes up all day long. If you're a young 17, 18-year-old exposed to that, it must have a very corrosive effect on you.
