Signal with Mory & Melissa

Spill the Tea: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of Gossip


Listen Later

Gossip: we love it, we hate it, we do it all the time, but why? This week, Mory and Melissa unpack humanity’s oldest custom: talking sh*t about other people. From the neanderthals to the Bridgertons, gossip has served as a social bond that stitches communities together, but its negative consequences are the stuff of nightmares (who isn’t terrified of their dirty laundry getting aired out?). The industry of celebrity gossip, as benign as it may feel for everyday consumers, has also created moral panics out of thin air and ruined whole careers on pure conjecture. What does gossip mean in the context of your journey towards a higher self? Spoiler: we only gossip when we have a hard time being frank with others and ourselves. Tune in to this week’s shenanigans for drunk history lessons, cogent advice, and - of course - delectable tea.To submit questions for future episodes: https://forms.gle/ZhSKGveWox33GvFq6Follow Mory on insta: https://www.instagram.com/moryfontanez/
