Silent Generation is a Chicago-based cultural analysis podcast that surveys the cultural consequences of car-oriented development in the mid-20th century. It explores what was lost between the Silent Generation and Generation Z, pointing to negative outcomes (nihilism, regional homogeneity, and low-trust societies) and potential antidotes (subcultures, secular social movements, and moral codes). Topics discussed include aesthetics, fashion, history, and urbanism.
