Has Social Media Killed Our Empathy? | Season 3 Premiere [S3:E1]


Listen Later

Welcome to the Season 3 Premiere of The Black, White & Grey Podcast – where perspectives collide, and stories connect.


In this episode, we officially welcome David Fagan to the inner circle — he’s officially "part of the furniture" now. We’re diving deep into a world where empathy has been outsourced to algorithms and our digital lives are fundamentally changing how we understand one another.


In this episode, we unpack:


• Why following someone’s life on Instagram means we no longer feel the need to actually call or see them in person.

• Michael confesses to having seven burner accounts to manipulate his own dopamine and explore different "camps" of the internet.

• Why we’ve started reading people as "content" rather than human beings.

• Our thoughts on the potential ban for under-16s and the "rewiring" of the developing brain.

• Is the 👍 emoji a polite agreement or a passive-aggressive "headlock"?


Join us for raw conversations, real stories, and unfiltered perspectives. Let’s unpack this together.
