Badlands Book Club - Book 3 - The Fourth Turning: Chapter 5

CannCon and Ashe in America continue their deep dive into The Fourth Turning, this time unpacking Chapter 5’s exploration of generational cycles and historical rhythms. They discuss how crime, substance abuse, and cultural trends rise and fall across awakenings, unravelings, and crises, and why today’s fentanyl epidemic may not fit neatly into past patterns. The hosts wrestle with questions about technology, propaganda, and whether elites exploit these cycles to manipulate society, connecting insights from Bernays to modern AI. They trace turning points from the Civil War through World War II to today, examining anomalies in history and the potential for another global reorganization in our time. With humor, personal anecdotes, and sharp analysis, this episode blends book study with big-picture reflections on America’s past, present, and future.
