Ep 517: They Don't Think We Had Kink

Do younger generations think they invented experimentation—or just rediscovered it with better branding?In this episode of Talk of the Tavern, Travis, Ed, and Kevin tackle the assumption that previous generations were somehow… boring.From shifting cultural norms to the influence of media and technology, the crew explores whether intimacy has actually changed—or if it’s just more visible, more discussed, and more openly labeled. Is this a case of evolution, or just better marketing and fewer secrets?So grab a drink, keep the conversation (mostly) respectable, and join us for a look at how perception, history, and a little bit of myth shape what we think we know about the past.What’s on Tap?🔥 The myth of “boring” past generations.📺 How media and the internet changed perception vs reality.🧠 Why people assume the past was more conservative than it was.⚖️ Openness vs behavior: what actually changed?🍻 Are we evolving—or just talking about it more?Toasts, Topics, & Tangents🔥 Travis questions whether history gets rewritten to fit modern identity.🔥 Ed breaks down how every generation thinks it discovered everything first.🔥 Kevin offers perspective on how culture shifts—but human nature doesn’t.🔥 The crew debates whether visibility creates the illusion of change.Join the Conversation!Do you think things have actually changed—or just the way we talk about them?
