Marriage, Polyamory, and Kids

Ravi welcomes Tyler Austin Harper and Brad Wilcox to the pod for a special episode on relationships.

They also explore the decline of social institutions, generational attitudes toward relationships, and the impact of activism and progressivism in universities. Ravi and Brad then discuss his new book Get Married, where he explores the divide between the way elites talk about marriage and relationships and the decisions they actually make. They dive into the decline of marriage and childbearing rates in the United States and globally, examining causes such as the rise of individualism, secularism, economic shifts, and the impact of technology.
