Why We Live Like This: Modern Life, Explained

無料で聴く

You check your phone before you've even sat down. You're tired after a day of doing nothing. You have hundreds of friends online and no one to call.


Why We Live Like This takes the small, strange habits of modern life, the ones everyone has and no one questions, and explains what's really going on. Each week, one everyday reflex, one real idea from psychology or sociology, and a closer look at what it quietly costs you: your attention, your time, the people around you.


No lectures. No life hacks. Just a calm, slightly amused voice helping you see your own life a little more clearly.


New episodes every week. Follow the show so you don't miss the next one.


Narrated with an AI-generated voice.

    You Have 800 Friends. So Why Are You Lonely?
    2026/10/09

    Hundreds of friends online, dozens of birthday messages, and still no one you'd call at two in the morning. This week, we look at how many real relationships a human brain can actually hold, and why a bigger crowd can leave the center of your life emptier than ever.

    Why Everyone Is So Tired
    2026/10/09

    You barely moved all day, you slept eight hours, and you still wake up exhausted. This week, we look at a kind of tiredness that has nothing to do with your body, and at why the way most of us try to rest might be keeping it going.

    Why You Can't Sit in a Waiting Room Anymore
    2026/10/09

    Why can't you sit in a waiting room anymore without reaching for your phone? This week, we look at what really happens in those few seconds of nothing, and at a strange experiment where people chose an electric shock over being alone with their thoughts.
