Listen Later

Johann Hari is a renowned writer and journalist known for his exploration of mental health, addiction, and societal issues. With several bestselling books under his belt, Johann brings a fresh perspective on how our modern world impacts our psychological well-being.


In this episode, Jake and Damian sit down with Johann Hari to dive deep into the hidden forces driving the mental health crisis today. They explore why society has not made significant progress in addressing the underlying causes of depression and anxiety, despite being more aware than ever.


Johann discusses how our pursuit of material success and social comparison can lead to increased anxiety and depression, and shares his thoughts on the staggering statistic that men are three times more likely to die by suicide than women. He also shares practical advice for parents on how to help the next generation break free from the pressures of comparison culture and the dangers of technology.


This episode offers a thought-provoking look at what we can do as individuals and as a society to address these growing mental health challenges.
