On this episode of The Karol Markowicz Show, Karol Markowicz sits down with Brad Polumbo to break down the shifting landscape of media, politics, and culture.

They dive into the rise of “fringe” voices in new media, the erosion of trust in traditional outlets, and why both the left and right are seeing growing pockets of extremism. Brad shares his perspective on Gen Z—are young people tuning out, or being pulled toward radical ideologies?

The conversation also explores the future of AI, misinformation, and whether audiences will be forced back toward verified sources as digital content becomes harder to trust. Plus, Brad offers a surprising prediction about technology, class, and why being “offline” could soon become the ultimate status symbol.

They wrap with a candid discussion on relationships, routines, and practical advice for building a better life in a chaotic, hyper-digital world.
