The conversation pivots to the UK government's social media ban for under-16s, triggered by Josh mentioning his daughter had discovered a classmate who thought Keir Starmer had 'banned the internet'. Both hosts are supportive. Rob's analogy is the standout moment: future generations will look back at photos of people bent over their phones the same way we look at old images of people smoking on the London Underground. He's candid that he and his wife are addicted to social media apps, that they are setting a terrible example for their kids, and that the children are currently doing better than the adults. Josh notes that the endless scroll of Reels and YouTube Shorts routinely pulls children into disturbing content they never searched for, which he sees as the core problem.
