Adolescence Is #1 on Netflix--and It's Got the Manosphere Shook [View all]



Hi Friends,

This week I wanted to share my thoughts on the hit Netflix show adolescence. It has been the number one show on Netflix for 4 weeks straight and has amassed somewhere around 100 million views making it Netflix’s most popular English speaking show.

It stars Stephan Graham and Owen Cooper, who made his acting debut in the series.

The show deals with topics like the manosphere, red pill, incels, and the coded language teenagers use to communicate ideas around the topics.

This set reminded me of my own struggles as a young man and how things could have gone very differently for me.
