Description

Friendships, digital stress, latchkey kids, 90s parenting, and Marjorie Taylor Greene’s “retirement” collide in this episode of Unsolicited Perspectives with Bruce Anthony.

Bruce opens with a nostalgic look at his 90s childhood—landlines, keys under the mat, and deeper friendships—contrasting it with today’s always-online culture. He unpacks the highs of digital life (connection, community, therapy access) and the lows (ghosting, shallow bonds, constant comparison), before sharing practical strategies for building real friendships in a digital age.

Then, he revisits a shocking 1992 case of two sisters left alone for nine days, showing how it reshaped Illinois law and raising a bigger question: why do our “tough” legal responses often harm the very communities they claim to protect?

Finally, Bruce and J. Aundrea tackle Greene’s exit from Congress, political grifting in 2025, and the fine line between art and business—spanning Eddie Murphy’s legacy, Chappelle’s evolution, Joe Pesci’s comeback, and why some legends should stay retired.

Tap in for sharp, funny conversations on digital friendships, 90s nostalgia, parenting, over-policing, political scams, and the messy intersection of art and capitalism. #friendship #digital #LatchkeyKids #marjorietaylorgreene #EddieMurphy #unsolicitedperspectives
