Show notes

The gang discusses new polling showing heavy social media users are less committed to the concept of democracy, raising questions about whether online life is distorting reality or just revealing deeper cracks. Then they pivot to “Disney adults,” a high-spending, status-driven fandom that fuels Disney’s success while drawing ridicule. Is it harmless escapism or something more unsettling? **Chapters** 00:00:00 - Intro 00:03:52 - Global Developments (Mostly Iran) 00:42:44 - Social Media and Democracy 01:14:14 - Disney Adults 01:38:01 - Emails 01:50:50 - Wrap-up --- Hosted on Acast.
