Episode Synopsis

Pain used to be something we treated. Now it's something we market. This episode dives into how trauma, discomfort, and the fear of suffering have become trillion-dollar industries. From opiates and antidepressants to ayahuasca retreats, ice baths, and TikTok tarot. We talk pharmaceutical trapdoors, rebound headaches, and why we keep inventing new ways to hurt ourselves just to feel alive. We also dive into lobotomies, brain-eating amoebas, salt & vinegar induced mouth cancer, and why Reddit is the worst doctor in the world. Pain sells. Relief sells more. And when that stops working? We sell pain again.
