About this listen

 We’re watching it happen in real time: children who are overstimulated, underdeveloped, and cut off from the real-world experiences that shape a full, vibrant life. In this groundbreaking conversation, Dr. Nicholas Kardaras—addiction expert and bestselling author of Glow Kids—returns to the podcast alongside Andrew Laubacher, executive director of Humanality. Together, they expose the modern epidemic of screen dependence, explore its spiritual and neurological toll, and explain why childhood itself is being disrupted at the deepest levels. But this isn’t just a diagnosis—it’s a roadmap out. Andrew shares his journey of trading viral fame for a flip phone and true freedom, and how Humanality is helping young adults and families reclaim creativity, community, and resilience. Dr. Kardaras offers a stark warning about AI, influencer culture, and tech's sedative effect on society—but also gives hope that we can still turn the tide. If you’ve ever wondered whether we’re doing enough to protect our kids, this episode will shake you—and empower you. ** Books mentioned in this episode: Glow Kids by Dr. Nicholas Kardaras Digital Madness by Dr. Nicholas Kardaras Generation AI by Matt Britton Amusing Ourselves to Death by Neil Postman The Disappearance of Childhood by Neil Postman The Shallows by Nicholas Carr Slow Productivity by Cal Newport Careless People by Sarah Churchwell Learn more about your ad choices.
