Podcast: Boomer v. Zoomer II

My daughter Vonne Mei and I discuss fertility among younger generations

Okay! We got enough positive feedback from last week’s inaugural podcast to keep it going for the near term — all dependent on Mei’s ability to spare time as she holds down her three jobs and her full slate of classes at the University of Wisconsin-Madison!

This week we run with JD Vance’s years-old bit about “childless cat ladies” not caring about the future and thus taking our nation down a dark path because — supposedly — they constitute the leadership of the Dems. Vonne Mei is 20 years old, unmarried, and a cat-owning woman, so it seemed fair to ask her how she approaches all this commitment and how she interprets others and their choices within her generation.

Runs 25 minutes. Feedback welcomed!

I will admit I only did okay on sound this time and I’ll work to smooth out the differences between us in the future. Mei was in a vacation cabin up north in Wisconsin, so our hookup was a bit sketchy.
