You're doom-scrolling your life away while real connections and genuine peace exist three feet outside your door. Jeremy spent three hours hiking with strangers and felt more mentally balanced than after months of "researching" social media for the show. In this episode, discover why your phone is sabotaging your mental health and how to reclaim your time, focus, and sanity. Learn the brutal truth about social media addiction, get practical steps for digital detox, and find out how to reconnect with the real world that doesn't require a subscription fee.

Episode Highlights:
  • Why three hours in the woods beats three years of productivity porn scrolling
  • The real reason everyone at the theater was staring at screens instead of humans
  • How social media companies exploit your evolutionary need for tribal belonging
  • Why 90% of your feed is designed to make you feel like garbage about yourself
  • The depression/anxiety combo that's actually trying to keep you alive (not miserable)
  • Jason's multi-tool metaphor for embracing your emotional complexity
  • Radical acceptance: Why you don't have to perform for anyone (including yourself)
  • The philosophical immune system you need to survive digital manipulation
  • How to use AI as a tool for self-improvement instead of endless distraction
  • Why Marcus Aurelius would delete Instagram (and so should you)
