What It's Like to Grow Up With Hoarders
People are fascinated by hoarding culture — in part because it presents a reality that's not that distant from our current accumulation habits. Like, turn one screw in my brain slightly more to the left, and my dahlia collecting habit becomes something that's widely understood as a social problem. When I heard about Amanda Uhle's Destroy This House, a memoir of growing up in a hoarding household, I knew listeners would want to explore that fine line between "proper" consumption and hoarding, the stories we tell about why people hoard, and the real difficulty in navigating hoarding behaviors by people you love.

The Outdoor Gearification of the American Wardrobe
I can’t tell you how excited I am about this one: Avery Trufelman, host of the beloved podcast Articles of Interest, is here to talk all things OUTDOOR GEAR. More specifically: how so much of our everyday clothing became gear adjacent, what the military has to do with all of this (everything), why outdoor clothes still don’t come in plus sizes, gear as Tech Bro status symbol, and SO MUCH MORE. This one’s a multi-faceted delight — the sort of episode you’ll be bringing up in conversation for weeks to come.Thanks to the sponsors of today’s episode!Head to zbiotics.com/CULTURESTUDY and use CULTURESTUDY at checkout for 15% off any first time orders of ZBiotics probiotics.Go to HelloFresh.com/CULTURESTUDY10FM now to Get 10 Free Meals + a Free Item for LifeSave 20% Off Honeylove by going to honeylove.com/cultureVisit shopbeam.com/culture and use code CULTURE to get up to 40% off your orderShow Notes:LISTEN TO ARTICLES OF INTEREST !!!!Follow the newsletter for Articles of Interest hereThe specific Articles of Interest about the zippersJason Chen on GORPCORELoved this piece on visiting the Carhartt company archiveI Wore A Fleece Vest To Work To See If I Felt Like A Tech BroWe’re currently looking for your questions for future episodes about:BIG KOREAN ENERGY with Mash-Up Americans (Their framework for questions: What is this Korean vibe everywhere in culture, in food, in beauty, in politics?

How the Manosphere Fuels Climate Change Denial
What does masculinity have to do with climate change denial? F-ing everything! Daniel Penny, host of the new Drilled podcast Carbon Bros, joins me to answer all of your questions about how the Manosphere and its ideologies of dominion, virility, control, and anti-wokeness collide with climate change narratives. We talk about petro-masculinity, of course, but also how environmentalism became “feminized,” the intersection with “muscular” Christianity, the Spotted Owl, fear of the electric truck, and how the Trump Administration has successfully exploited fears of a cucked, climate-focused nation. This one will piss you off and give you a lot to think about.Thanks to the sponsors of today’s episode!Get 35% off the best blankets of all time at LolaBlankets.com, using code CULTURE at checkoutBlueland is offering 15% off your first order of cleaning products at Blueland.com/CULTURETry OneSkin with 15% off using code CULTURE at oneskin.coIf you’re in the market for a beautiful new sofa, dining table or bed, find something beautiful and long-lasting at Article.com.Show Notes:You can listen to CARBON BROS and find out more about the podcast hereFind more of Daniel’s work here and listen to other episodes of Non-Toxic (and the newsletter) hereA bunch of Chad memes that may or may not elucidate Chad-nessDaniel references Dr. Sophie Bjork-James’s work — find out more about it hereMy interview with Kristin Kobez Du Mez on White Christian NationalismI reference my reporting on North Idaho & the spotted owl — it’s in this big featureThe ridiculous “premature electrification” Super Bowl truck commercial:FROM THE AAA: My piece on What Makes Women CleanYour Cleaning StoryWe’re currently looking for your questions for future episodes about:BIG KOREAN ENERGY with Mash-Up Americans (Their framework for questions: What is this Korean vibe everywhere in culture, in food, in beauty, in politics?

Why Other People's Screen Time Annoys You
Maybe your mom endlessly scrolls Facebook every time you visit. Maybe your kid has to be asked six times to get off his tablet. Maybe your friend is always checking Instagram when you’re out to dinner. Maybe your partner keeps checking their phone while you’re watching a movie together. Or maybe you find yourself doing all the things you find SO ANNOYING when others do them — and know these behaviors are affecting your relationships, but struggle to change them. Are you one of the 510234 moms who submitted a question about feeling guilty being on your phone (even if you’re just reading an eBook!) in front of your kids? Welp, this is the podcast for you.This isn’t a podcast episode about how ALL SCREENS ARE BAD and YOU ARE BAD FOR ENGAGING WITH THEM. It’s about recasting our relationships with them so that we can have better relationships with each other (which sometimes involves watching a screen… together!) Ash Brandin, founder of the tremendously popular Instagram account The Gamer Educator and author of Power On: Managing Screen Time To Benefit The Whole Family, joins me for a nuanced and deeply empathetic conversation that I know we’ll continue in the comments.Thanks to the sponsors of today’s episode!Go to zbiotics.com/CULTURESTUDY and use CULTURESTUDY at checkout for 15% off any first time orders of ZBiotics probioticsTry a Blissy silk pillowcase for 60 nights, risk-free, and get an additional 30% off when you shop at Blissy.com/CULTUREPOD and use code CULTUREPOD at checkoutVisit Article.com/CULTURE to get $50 off your first order of $100 or moreTry Remi risk-free at shopremi.com/CULTURE and use code CULTURE to get up to 50% off your nightguard at checkoutShow Notes:Buy Power On: Managing Screen Time to Benefit the Whole Family here!You can follow Ash’s super popular Instagram, The Gamer Educator, here:You can find more of Ash’s work hereAsh on Virginia Sole-Smith’s podcast re: screen time restrictionMy collection of adults interviewing kids about why they liked playing video games (I forgot how good this was!)We’re currently looking for your questions for future episodes about:Running a Small Business — and How to Make It Sustainable & Survivable (with Jen Hewett!)All things Love is Blind with Audie CornishDifferent Modalities of Hanging Out (aka, best ways to hang out with different people) with Mary HK ChoiThe history/utility/culture of OUTDOOR PERFORMANCE GEAR with Avery Trufelman (of Articles of Interest)What an actually family-friendly society would look like (with Elliot Haspel)An ADULT HOBBIES crossover episode with Forever35!The sociology of NAMESAnything you need advice or want musings on for the AAA segment.
