In this episode, I explore how technology is stripping away “the organic dynamic” — that raw, unfiltered rush we used to get from real-life interactions and genuine experiences. From meeting someone face-to-face, making them laugh, and feeling the anticipation of that first date… to the simple thrill of winning through pure skill in competitive gaming, that dopamine hit is getting replaced by instant, manufactured gratification.

I dive into how gambling platforms like PrizePicks and DraftKings are now embedding themselves into e-sports, a space once defined by dedication, practice, and fair competition. While sponsorships and brand deals have always been part of the scene, the integration of gambling introduces a new layer of risk — one that could undermine trust and authenticity.

This is a conversation about life, technology, competition, and what we stand to lose if we trade in the real for the rigged.
