Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta are gluttons for punishment, and they’ve had a lot of wine. We’re coming hard for some of the most devoted fandoms out there! We’re talking about the phenomenon of cognitive dissonance, and how there are examples in everyday pop culture of what happens when people don’t practice the things they preach. Chances are, people don’t even realize that the discomfort that they’re feeling is cognitive dissonance. Well, no worries. We’re here to drag ya’ll for filth and expose ourselves to the rabidly defensive fans of Taylor Swift, Joss Whedon and Game of Thrones. Strap in for this wine-y tour of cognitive dissonance in current popular culture!
