In this episode of The Long & Thick Podcast, we decided to each share one recurring thought we keep coming back to.

Both thoughts lean negative.

We discuss:

Why modern American life feels overwhelming

How media, technology, and constant stimulation affect mental health

The sense of paralysis many people feel right now

Loneliness, outrage culture, and attention economics

How we’re personally reframing these patterns without ignoring reality

This is a more contemplative episode. Less banter, more reflection.

If you’ve been feeling mentally overloaded, stuck, or discouraged about the direction of society, this conversation may help you zoom out and think more clearly.
