概要

 What happens when you build your career on asking the questions you’re “not supposed” to ask? In this AmFest conversation, Elijah Schaffer opens up about getting hit with multi-million-dollar lawsuits, the realities of modern “clout media,” and why he believes truth-telling comes with a price. He also breaks down how online culture is reshaping young men—from hyper-viral creators repackaging adult content for mainstream audiences, to the insecurity loop of “looks-maxing,” status chasing, and dopamine-driven addiction. This episode goes deep on faith, discipline, pressure, and what it takes to stay grounded when everything around you is incentivized to go off the rails.
