Humour is a powerful tool for critique — but in the digital age, satire can easily be mistaken for fact. In this episode, we explore how satirical content spreads as misinformation when emotional reactions override critical thinking. Drawing from emotion science — the five components of feeling, appraisal, action tendency, motor activity, and physiology — we see how a joke can trigger real emotional and physical responses, making it feel true even when it’s not. A must-listen for anyone who’s ever shared (or believed) something “too good not to be true.” Listen if you want to understand how humour, emotion, and belief collide in the age of information overload.
