It's the sound of Young America. I'm Jesse Thorn. You know, we take very seriously on this program our mandate not just to entertain, but also to educate.

And that's where our friends, the folk music duo, God's pottery come in.

Oddly enough, God's pottery have done most of their public performances in the context of comedy shows. You might have seen them on NBC's last comic standing.

Their mission isn't so much to make you laugh as to make you think about making moral choices for your life.

Gideon Lamb, Jeremiah Small Child. Welcome back to the Sound of Young America. Great to have you again.

Oh, thank you so much. Hello, Jesse.

Hello, Jesse.

Hi, hello, Jesse and hello, America and the youngsters and American youth.

That's great. So what we want to do is talk a little bit about an issue that might affect young people in their lives.

Both for the benefit of young people and for the benefit of the adults who are of course responsible for them.

This week on the show, I want to talk a little bit about, gosh, I'm trying to think of how to put this in a family friendly way on this family friendly show.

Dating relationships, going steady.

Is this something that you guys feel like more and more young people are getting involved in?

Unfortunately, Jesse and listeners.

Yes.

Yeah, it's becoming a bit of a problem.

And you know, we can't blame the teen for this one because what we're talking about is a biological thing that's happening.

Their bodies are telling their minds to go crazy.

And so we're just trying to give them some safety harnesses to help them through this crazy ride.

And let them know that what they're feeling is wrong.

Yes.

A lot of young people, teenagers, are hanging out or even dating.
