from Bounce Back Generation Podcast · host Bounce Back Generation

Can a Liberal and Trump voter find common ground in 2025? Welcome to "IT'S INTERESTING YOU SAY THAT" podcast. In this episode we talk about how we have become more cruel to each other - as a society - from watching Reality TV. That dynamic is also being used to manipulate hate and division. We delve into the psychology behind the shows and how the manipulations work, and why. We talk about the Strict Father framework, the media, and theories that can help us reconnect as people, country members, and even parent to child communications.IT'S INTERESTING YOU SAY THAT is part of Bounce Back Generation. BBG's leader Jennifer, and Tyler a popular influencer and professional host, delve into the psychology behind our differences. Jennifer and Tyler are different ages, from different backgrounds, she's a liberal -- he voted for Trump.
