Episode Synopsis

In this episode we revisit our most played early release and use it as a jumping off point to talk honestly about what being “chronically online” actually means now. We trace the evolution from channel surfing and MySpace to modern algorithms designed to capture attention, shape behavior, and profit from addiction. We reflect on growth, validation, and why this podcast exists in the first place: not to perform, monetize, or chase approval, but to document thought, perspective, and change in real time. The internet can be powerful. Without balance and real-life community, it can also hollow you out.
