How AI, Media & Addiction Rewire Our Minds

<p>Why are we so invested in media outrage and who is benefiting from it? Kris Tyte and Sean Snodgrass are joined by Lindsay & Quinn Nelson to break down this propaganda phenomenon. We discuss how endless media consumption, AI-generated misinformations, and social media platforms reshape the way we think, feel, and behave. But this isn’t just about listing problems like doomscrolling or dopamine addictions, it's about awareness. Today’s episode also dives into the horrors of overconsumption and how it disconnects us from reality, impacts mental health, and is quietly shaping our future generations. If you ever have felt overwhelmed, distracted, or stuck in a loop…this episode explains why.</p>
