Life Uncut

Are We All Hate Watching With Love, Meghan? And The Rules Around Bachelor Parties.


Listen Later

Hey Lifers!
Straight off the b̶a̶c̶k̶ bat, how do you feel about the sound of exhaust fans?
Are they the bane of your existence or are you normal? 

We have a devastating update about Britt's hens entertainment and checks notes it is not appropriate to ask if the entertainment should come to our workplace. Noted.
Ben has had his bucks party and it was a little less of a rager than what Britt anticipated. 
We ended up having a bit of a deeper conversation about what the 'rules' of hens/bucks parties are, the length of the 'leash' and being in a relationship with genuine trust and how that feels really different to previous relationships.

Why are people hate-watching Meghan Markle’s Netflix Show Love, Meghan?

Why do we hate watch or hate follow anyone?
We unpack the how these factors play into why we might consume content from people that we really don't like:

  • Confirmation bias. If you already think someone is awful, watching their content (and finding more reasons to dislike them) reinforces that belief.
  • The need for comparison. Hate-watching gives us a way to feel superior.
  • Schadenfreude—the joy of watching a train wreck
  • Participation in a bigger conversation
  • Algorithms LOVE outrage!

We'd love to know if you hate follow or hate watch anyone/anything? Are they a celebrity/public figure or someone you know in your own life?
