Summary

Is pornography just a private matter—or is it rewiring our kids’ brains, damaging relationships, and fueling exploitation? In this urgent and eye-opening episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich speaks with Parker Hymas from Fight the New Drug, a non-religious, non-legislative organization dedicated to exposing the harmful effects of porn through science, facts, and personal accounts. Together, they dive into what makes today’s porn fundamentally different from past generations, how early exposure (sometimes as young as age 7) is shaping children’s mental health and relational expectations, and why conversations—not just filters—are the true solution. Parker breaks down the research, offers hope for healing, and shares practical tools for parents, educators, and anyone who cares about kids. If you’ve been avoiding this topic, this is the episode you can’t afford to miss. ** All Fight the New Drug resources are free!!
