Convince Me I Care
A podcast that explores the absurdities of the modern world through a series of generation-gap rhetorical dares. Ever wonder why, exactly, the Kids are up to that thing these days? Or what the hell the Olds were thinking when they created the world they’ve left us all to inherit? Convince Me I Care aims to explain the inexplicable by forcing our arbitrary representatives of each generation to account for themselves and their contemporaries. In each episode, we’ll dive into some strange facet of generational culture and try to convince each other that it does, in fact, matter. Join us as we attempt to parse the fads, foibles, fears, and fandoms of the recent past.
