MSP292. The Old Kids Are Alright

Richard Bradbury and Matt Armitage embark on a captivating journey through the contrasting worlds of childhood and adulthood. From their shared delight with ice lollies to an innovative push to make science education more engaging for young learners, they discuss the merits of hands-on learning and the power of curiosity. After the break, they explore the complexities of "kidulting" and the blurred lines between childhood and adulthood in today's society. Drifting into the cultural significance of superhero movies, they chart the generational differences in pop culture consumption, and the challenges of navigating a world where traditional milestones of adulthood seem increasingly delayed. Are the kids alright? Or are all of us perpetually navigating the complexities of an extended adolescence?
