Listen "It really is that damn phone."
Episode Synopsis
This one’s personal. We're talking about that phone. The one you’re probably holding right now. The one that’s rewired our brains, murdered our attention spans, and low-key made boredom extinct.In this episode, I unpack how social media addiction has reshaped the way we think, feel, and relate to ourselves. We get into dopamine culture, the lost art of boredom, and how our need to constantly feel stimulated might just be a soft, velvet-gloved symptom of something deeper like economic anxiety, the Gen Z identity crisis, and even the rise of the soft girl aesthetic as a quiet form of conservatism.This isn’t a digital detox sermon. It's more of a mirror. Maybe even a soft call to take your time and your mind back one scroll at a time.Listen in, laugh with me, and maybe... just maybe, put your phone down after.
