At what point do we go from letting go of the little stuff to actual intervention?

A surprisingly large amount of parenting discussion leads to more and more questions...and Trent actually realized he has no idea what it's like to be an only child and what that means to one's psyche.

Oh...and what role does AI and social media play in our lives...just a light-hearted jam on chill topics. (Seriously, we kept it light!)

Jorge sends us into deep dive on distractions and modern society that takes some amazing twists and turns along the way.

Are distractions good for the soul? Are they bad for our society? Or are they a whole lot of both and much more?

Share with a friend and keep the conversation going.

An update on a failed recording session (bad cable), and when we'll be back (Friday).

WE'VE FIXED OUR AUDIO!!! Special thanks to my partner for her assistance.

In this episode, Jorge and Trent sit down and discuss social media and its continued dominance in capturing our society's attention, the polarizing power of the algorithm and the brazenness of an anonymous user base. (Ed. note: That might be the smartest sentence I've ever constructed...SMORT!)

Then, as with any discussion about social media's ills, the dialogue turns to politics and democracy itself. Jorge shares a personal experience with how much a proposition can change between conception and the ballot before Trent attempts to prescribe the right medicine for our ailing government.

All without a hint of anger and many legitimately funny moments.

Co-hosts Trent and Jorge open their first ever podcast with plenty of laughs and some seriousness on how grieving can be different for each of us. Then they share thoughts regarding their phones, before finishing with a flourish no one saw coming.
