Why are we lonelier than ever in a world built for connection?

In this powerful episode of Need to Know, we unpack the science behind loneliness—why it exists, how it affects your brain and body, and why it’s rising in the digital age. From social media’s false intimacy to the public health crisis of disconnection, we explore how loneliness is quietly shaping modern life—and what you can actually do to fight it. Backed by research, stories, and insight, this episode is both a wake-up call and a guide to deeper, more meaningful human connection.

What if you couldn’t trust your eyes—or your ears?

In this chilling episode of Need to Know, we break down the rise of deepfakes: hyper-realistic videos and audio generated by AI. From identity theft and financial scams to political propaganda and the collapse of digital trust, we explore how deepfakes are already changing the way we see truth—and why the biggest threat isn’t deception, but confusion. Learn how to spot the signs, protect yourself, and prepare for a future where reality is no longer guaranteed.
