Gen X women are doing it, and doing it quite well. Having a bit of this sexual rediscovery later and finding that everything still works, sometimes much to their surprise, that desire is still there, that, you know, sexual function is still there.
Is there a middle-age sexual renaissance afoot? And should 50-somethings be crediting 20-somethings for it? That's this week on Explain It To Me. New episodes every Sunday morning, wherever you get your podcasts.
Welcome to Raging Moderates. I'm your host, Jessica Tarlow. Today, we have Congressman Pat Ryan, the Hudson Valley native representing the 18th District of New York.
His main focus in Congress is providing relief for Hudson Valley families, improving transportation for folks in his district, and investing in the United States Military Academy, where he hopes to provide for the next generation of military leaders. The congressman recently made headlines for calling Elon Musk a villain on CNN, which I loved.
and for discussing how he believes young men can benefit from the Democratic Party. Congressman Ryan, welcome to the show. It's great to have you on.
Thanks for having me, Jess. I'm sorry, I'm choking on my coffee here. I apologize.
That's okay. I'm choking on my own voice, which is very millennial of me.
That's how excited I am to be on the show. I'm just like chugging coffee and got too excited. So I'm a huge fan of yours and appreciate the good fight that you continue to fight to actually say things that are truthful and authentic and honest on an important news channel that we all know is out there.
I appreciate that. And I was thinking to myself as I was walking down here that it's nice to actually meet you in person because I use you as an example all the time because my colleagues on The Five will say, the Democratic Party is so crazy and you don't have anyone normal. And I'm like, have you met Congressman Pat Ryan? And now I have you here. Super excited to have you here.
