Description: College commencement season is delivering more than graduation speeches—it’s igniting debates over free speech, campus culture, AI, and what advice actually matters in life. Karol Markowicz and Mary Katharine Ham break down the backlash over Jonathan Haidt’s NYU commencement address, reactions to AI warnings from former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, and the speech that may have gotten it right: Eric Church’s emotional message on faith, family, ambition, and purpose. Plus, the hosts share the life advice they’d give graduates entering an increasingly chaotic world.Follow Clay & Buck on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuckSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
