In this episode, we explore a conversation around celebrity, accountability, and mental health, using Kanye West’s public apology as a reference point.
We question what public apologies actually mean, how fame complicates responsibility, and why real growth usually happens away from the spotlight. We also touch on how mental health language has become more common, sometimes in helpful ways, but often in ways that blur accountability and reality. 
From there, the conversation widens into culture and the rise of internet-native fame.
We talk about figures like IShowSpeed and what they represent — a new kind of celebrity built on personality, algorithms, and constant visibility.
It’s a reflection on how culture is shifting in real time, how relevance is being redefined, and what it means for people like us trying to stay grounded while the rules keep changing.
