If you've ever yelled at someone on social media about, say,
cancel culture or mask-wearing, then you are a soldier in the
culture wars - those everyday battles for dominance between
conflicting values. The acclaimed writer and podcaster Jon Ronson
has seen friends swallowed up in them to the extent that it's
ruined their lives. Jon was curious to learn how things fell
apart, and so he went back into the history of the culture wars
to find some of the origin stories: the pebbles thrown in the
pond, creating the ripples that led us to where we are today. He
had no idea what he’d find, but he's uncovered some extraordinary
people and the strangest, yet most consequential tales.
