Description

By failing to get this episode out on time, did we succeed? We'd like to think so. It's time to talk about "The F Word," this week on Morgendorks! When Mr. O'Neill assigns his class to purposefully fail at something, it throws everything into disarray. Brittany's unpopular! Kevin sucks at sports! Jane's a ... cheerleader? This one waits two acts before going off the rails entirely.

And for cultural context, we talk about the risk-averse (or is it risk-aware?) behavior of the Millennial generation. Is it that they don't want to embrace failure, or is it that they have so little margin for error they can't fathom taking that kind of chance?
