f you're raising a tween or teen right now, chances are someone in your orbit has mentioned Adolescence — the British four-part drama that follows the fictional story of a 13-year-old boy accused of stabbing a teenage girl. At its core, the series asks a chilling question: could any boy be pulled into the world of online radicalization and incel culture?

This episode, we unpack the show’s provocative themes and the cultural conversations it’s sparked — from fears about the manosphere to whether we’re in the middle of a new teen panic, or just the latest iteration of one. We also talk honestly about what it’s like raising boys in a world that feels increasingly angry and confusing. And we really want to hear your thoughts, too.
