    Jonathan Haidt's been doing a media tour to promote his and Catherine Price's new book, The Amazing Generation.

    After watching the duo's segment on The Daily Show, it's inspired my wife and I to try a digital sabbath on Saturdays again.

    Part of why it failed in the past (multiple times, I'm sad to say) was that we didn't have anything physical to read. We'd start making small concessions ("I'm reading a Kindle, it's ok"), leading to more concessions ("I'm only using my phone to look something up"), and pretty soon we'd be back on our phones again.

    So, fedi, any suggestions for book series' and (print) magazines to subscribe to?

    We're probably going to subscribe to Macleans, but it's monthly now, so we need more suggestions!

    Bonus if it's Canadian content, but not a hard requirement.

    We'll probably do Chirp for the kids, too.
