| 0:00.0 | For the first time, California is losing a congressional seat. New York by 89 people is losing a |
| 0:07.3 | congressional seat and we did cover this before, but it brings up another problem that we're facing |
| 0:12.8 | in this country. And I guess interestingly, depending on who you ask, I'll tell you it's a problem |
| 0:16.8 | and probably a bunch of people on the left would say it's probably not a problem. And we're talking |
| 0:20.6 | about stagnant population. There's, I mean, millennials aren't really having kids. There's |
| 0:26.7 | there's, whatever reason. And there's also lower immigration. And this is resulting in now a |
| 0:33.2 | dramatic shift in how they're setting up congressional seats. But I'm not going to talk about Congress today. |
| 0:39.2 | We're going to just talk a whole lot about families, men, women, millennials, the workforce. It's |
| 0:44.0 | kind of a chill Friday night talking about some of the most serious problems that are affecting |

| 1:17.1 | reported memoir called Other Hood, which is about the women, Gen X, older millennials, daughters |
| 1:23.2 | of feminism who expected that we'd have the husband and the kids that our moms had, but also have |
| 1:31.7 | the education and careers. And yet we may have the education careers, but many are finding their |
| 1:39.5 | match much later in life, if ever, and having their first child in life much later, if ever. |
| 1:45.6 | Where does our about all that? It's going to be fun. We got Ian Hitchcock. Oh yes, |
| 1:48.2 | hello everyone. Ian Cross on here. Great to be here. Melanie, good to see you. Thanks Tim. |
| 1:52.4 | And Lydia in the corner pushing buttons as she does. I'm very excited for this evening because I |
