Interesting Times · Scott Galloway: America Abandoned Its ‘Unremarkable’ Young Men · 6 Aug 2026 podcast

Maybe that's unfair, but that's what I see in Scott Galloway. voice-verified

But it seems like what you're describing is a world, is a landscape where there's some set of advantages that men used to have that you can just say were unfair and it's good that they're gone. voice-verified

But then at the same time, when you say, look, men need more time to develop. voice-verified

Male teenagers are just the weaker sex in educational settings compared to women and so on, right? voice-verified

It does seem like there's voice-verified

There's certain things that your theory needs to favor that would be sort of pro-male in a particular way, and in a way that would, by their critics on the left, get called the return of patriarchy or something like that. voice-verified

What do you think about that? voice-verified

But in your story, in education alone, it sounds like you do need something that is just effectively a different track. voice-verified

for men and maybe in the way you know we talk about this a lot with women in terms of how do you make the work workplace compatible with pregnancy and motherhood and it seems like you're saying in the same way we need to think about how to make the modern educational system compatible with voice-verified

So the idea is you're taking, let's say, somewhere in the 18 to 22-year-old zone, whether it's a guy who isn't ready to go to college or a guy who's graduating college or hasn't finished, it doesn't have purpose, and you're saying, okay... voice-verified

You need this extra two years of development and you need something to do in that time. voice-verified

I think... But that's it. voice-verified

You just gave a nice gender-neutral sounding description, right? voice-verified

But it is... If it's the men you're worried about, right? voice-verified

It's... I think in your story, you need... It's the smokejumpers, right? voice-verified

Like, it's... voice-verified

The problem you're trying to solve is more likely to be solved by the smokejumpers than the no-kill animal shelter, right? voice-verified
