He is known for works such as The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know Is Possible.Charles joins us to explore how modern family structures have evolved and what's been lost in our transition from community-based living to isolated nuclear families. What gets lost when we accept today's idea of “normal” life? Together with Charles we discuss the shift from community to isolated nuclear families, the fading of shared caregiving, and why so many people feel something essential is missing. Charles shares his view that grief and discomfort about modern life are important signals, not problems to fix. Together, we question how community skills have eroded and what it might take to rebuild real connection. If you find yourself questioning “normal” and longing for deeper connection, this conversation offers perspective and encouragement to trust that feeling—and to look for ways, big or small, to rebuild genuine community in your own life.

In this conversation, Jack explains how removing online distractions led him to seek out in-person connection, from literally knocking on neighbors' doors to organizing his own book and writing salons.We discuss the qualitative difference between digital admirers and real friends, and why meaningful conversations rarely happen through casual online chat. Jack outlines how he created formal spaces—book clubs, writing groups, salons—to foster intellectual depth and genuine community.The discussion moves to Jack's research on “common pool resources,” and the practical lessons from Nobel Prize winner Eleanor Ostrom's work on how communities can successfully govern shared spaces. We explore what makes a community sustainable, including trust, collective rule-making, and how conflict is resolved without defaulting to authority or privatization.Cecilie and Jesper share their own experiences with offline community-building and the Scandinavian tradition of “hygge” as an egalitarian way of sharing space. The episode finishes with a reflection on what it really takes to build trust, give comfort, and create belonging in a world shaped by digital isolation.

Send us a textSociologist Jennie Germann Molz joins the podcast to discuss her book The World Is Our Classroom: Extreme Parenting and the Rise of Worldschooling. Jennie is a professor at the College of the Holy Cross whose research explores mobility, technology, and alternative forms of family life. Drawing on both academic insight and her own experience traveling the world with her ten-year-old son, she examines what happens when families move beyond traditional education models and choose to learn through travel.We talk about how worldschooling challenges conventional ideas of parenting, risk, and education. The term itself includes a wide range of practices, from part-time educational travel to fully nomadic living. What connects them is a shared belief that learning happens outside institutional classrooms. Jennie also describes how both worldschooling and more conventional approaches like helicopter parenting can respond to the same concerns about preparing children for the future.The conversation looks at worldschooling through the lens of a sociologist, covering how travel shapes emotional adaptability in children, how standardized testing limits our understanding of learning, and how digital tools and post-COVID shifts have expanded possibilities for mobile education. For listeners interested in alternative education, digital nomad families, or learning outside school systems, this episode offers a grounded academic view of the worldschooling movement.

Alex Kane is a fiercely inventive guitarist, songwriter, and musical visionary whose career has spanned decades and continents. Best known for his work with bands like Life Sex & Death, Marky Ramone's Blitzkrieg, Antiproduct, and Enuff Z'Nuff, Kane is one of rock's true cult heroes—a player whose style fuses punk ferocity, glam flamboyance, metal precision, and a sense of showmanship that feels equal parts Ziggy Stardust and Sid Vicious.Born in Chicago, Alex Kane grew up soaking in a wild mix of musical influences—from KISS and The Sex Pistols to Cheap Trick and Queen. He picked up the guitar early and soon developed a sound that combined attitude with technical flair. His Chicago roots also gave him a gritty, no-nonsense approach that would become a signature element of his music.Life, Sex & Death (L.S.D.)Kane first gained national attention in the early '90s as the guitarist and primary songwriter for the controversial and utterly unique band Life Sex & Death. Known for blending sleaze-rock with raw punk energy and philosophical lyrics, the band featured a homeless-savant frontman named Stanley, who became a kind of underground legend.Their debut album, The Silent Majority (1992), released on Warner Bros., drew critical acclaim and cult fascination. Songs like “Tank,” “School's for Fools,” and “Jawohl Asshole” were full of snarling riffs, sharp social commentary, and theatrical swagger. Though commercial success was elusive, the band's live shows and Kane's explosive playing style left a lasting mark on the rock underground.Post-LSD & AntiproductAfter the dissolution of L.S.D., Kane relocated to the UK and co-founded Antiproduct, a glam-punk power-pop explosion that further stretched his musical boundaries. Antiproduct quickly developed a rabid UK fan base with their high-energy shows and outrageous visual style.Their album Consume and Die… The Rest Is All Fun showcased Kane's diverse influences—from Ramones-speed punk to Beatles-style melody—wrapped in crunchy guitars and rebellious hooks. The band was hailed in the British press as a breath of fresh air, and they toured relentlessly with artists like The Wildhearts and Wednesday 13.Collaborations & Side ProjectsAlex Kane is known for his prolific collaborations. He played guitar with Marky Ramone's Blitzkrieg, joining the punk legend for international tours and celebrating the legacy of The Ramones with thunderous authenticity. His stage presence and aggressive playing perfectly matched the spirit of the punk classics.Kane has also worked with an array of artists across genres including Pretty Boy Floyd, Richie Ramone, and Shameless, and has guested on countless albums. A fearless player, he's comfortable shredding on heavy metal tracks, laying down sleazy glam riffs, or playing melodic hooks with pop sensibility.Enuff Z'Nuff & Recent WorkIn recent years, Kane returned to his Chicago roots and joined Enuff Z'Nuff for several tours, bringing a harder-edged guitar vibe to the band's power-pop and psychedelic-tinged catalog. His addition reinvigorated the band's sound onstage, and his chemistry with Chip Z'Nuff made him a fan-favorite during live shows.Kane also continues to produce, write, and record solo material. His sharp wit, eclectic taste, and raw energy continue to push creative boundaries. He's known for mentoring young musicians and remaining fiercely independent in an industry often driven by trends and compromise.LegacyAlex Kane's legacy is one of rebellion, craft, and fearless creativity. He's not just a guitar player—he's a musical mischief-maker and a genre-blending explorer. While he may have flown under the mainstream radar, those who know Kane's work recognize him as one of the most exciting and original rock guitarists of his generation.https://www.instagram.com/alexfuckingkane?igsh=MTV1OWhuaGt1NWNlbA==

Send us a textIn this episode, we explore how modern culture has stripped childhood of the freedom it needs to thrive—and what can be done to bring it back. Our guest is Lenore Skenazy, author of Free-Range Kids and co-founder of the nonprofit Let Grow, launched with Jonathan Haidt, Peter Gray, and Daniel Shuchman to champion independence, resilience, and real-world learning.Together, we unpack how fear, measurement, and control have come to dominate parenting and education. From the rise of isolated family units to the spread of enrichment culture, today's children are surrounded by adults who often confuse supervision with support. The result is a generation of kids with less room to explore, solve problems, and grow on their own.We talk about how Let Grow is working to change this—by making it normal again for kids to walk to the store, play unsupervised, and take age-appropriate risks. Lenore shares the story of a high school that gave students one week of unstructured play, and the surprising transformation that followed. The spark of self-direction wasn't lost—it was just waiting for space to reappear.Visit letgrow.org to explore free programs, school initiatives, and policy work that supports childhood independence.

In this conversation with her cousin Cecilie and co-host Jesper, Anna reflects on the first year of stepping away from the system.Anna shares how the loss of her first child shaped her parenting values, what it meant to leave a job she loved, and how her son's strong will and focused interests made conventional paths feel impossible.We explore what unschooling looks like when a child is, as Anna puts it, a “force of nature.” She shares how they've let go of routines around food, sleep, and learning, and how screen time—especially a Paw Patrol obsession—became a mirror for her own discomfort.We also discuss emotional availability as a form of parenting work, and why being present can be more powerful than teaching.

Send us a textIn this conversation with author and speaker Jacob Nordby, we explore the paradox of freedom in modern life. Is it simply doing whatever we want—or does real freedom require something deeper?While many consider freedom to be about doing whatever they want without constraints, Jacob challenges this perception. "A lot of people assume that freedom means the ability to do whatever they want," he reflects, "but we're learning that most of what we think and believe happens pretty unconsciously." True freedom, it seems, requires the difficult work of self-awareness and introspection.Jacob challenges common ideas about success, self-determination, and meaning. Together, we dive into how societal norms shape our values, why unpaid or “unproductive” work (like parenting or crafting) is deeply meaningful, and how rituals in everyday life can reconnect us to purpose. Jacob shares tools for navigating difficult times and reclaiming inner freedom.“The great victory isn't avoiding difficulty—it's knowing we can respond with resilience.”

Send us a textIn this episode, we speak with Amanda Diekman about how her parenting changed when her six-year-old son went into autistic burnout. He lost verbal communication, stopped eating most foods, and couldn't follow basic routines. Faced with a crisis, Amanda chose to stop trying to fix him and instead removed demands to create safety.She explains how this shift became the foundation of low-demand parenting—an approach that prioritizes accommodation, reduces expectations, and gives children more agency. We discuss the fear many parents feel when stepping outside conventional norms, how control-based parenting damages relationships, and why even “high-functioning” children may be silently struggling.Amanda also shares how living in a community centered around disability shifted her perspective on independence and success. We cover specific strategies, including how her family uses language like “you're forcing me” to signal power imbalances, and how she reframed daily routines to support healing.Low-demand parenting isn't just for neurodivergent children—it challenges the broader parenting culture and offers a different way to relate to our kids.

Frustrated by rigid schooling systems, they traveled to over 170 learning centers to understand how children learn best outside the traditional classroom.In this episode, we talk about  how compulsory schooling originated in 19th-century Prussia as a system designed to produce obedient soldiers and workers, a model later exported worldwide as a tool for colonization and cultural suppression. We discuss how education has been shaped by these historical forces and why so many modern schools still emphasize conformity over curiosity. Luz and David explain the “Expedition Methodology” they developed, which focuses on exploration, experimentation, and community as key components of meaningful learning. Rather than pushing a single solution, they emphasize the importance of cross-pollination between different educational approaches and the need for families, teachers, and learning communities to collaborate in rethinking how children grow and learn.Instead of waiting for top-down reforms, they work directly with those already creating change—educators, parents, and pioneers looking for alternatives. Their mission is to make these models more accessible, providing tools and resources to help others implement child-led, passion-driven learning environments.Visit evolvingeducation.org to access their free ebook, watch their documentary films, and join their community.
