Tobias Rose-Stockwell is our guest for this episode. His brand new book is 

OUTRAGE MACHINE
How Tech Amplifies Discontent and Disrupts Democracy—And What We Can Do About It

Together, we’ll examine the historical context of societal stability and the shifts that have led us to this current climate of anger and polarization. We’ll explore the role of media, including social media platforms, in fueling outrage and examine the consequences it has on our mental health and social fabric.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the constant stream of outrage, or if you’re simply curious about the impact it has on our society, this episode is for you.
