Summary

Today we’re discussing privacy across the ages, family structures in earlier eras, and the luxury/lunacy of solitude. Stephen shares some childhood memories and Laura argues in defense of the blended family. Let us illustrate how lucky we are to be living today, with comparisons to life 100 years ago and a fun little syndrome called “Glass Delusion.” From the Dutch drawing rooms of the 1600s to the lonely settlements of 1800s America, we discuss the dangers of isolation—and the joys of contemporary metropolitan living. Join us for an upbeat journey through the idiosyncrasies of history, contemporary city life, and suburban society!
