The Algorithm is a Garden: Be the Gardener, or You Will Be the Weed

I tried to "hack" my wife’s phone to teach her English. The algorithm ignored me and gave her Mutton Curry instead. When I checked my own phone, I didn't find food—I found Rage.

In this episode, I break down the "Algorithm Audit": a personal experiment to go from "cognitively congested" to clear-headed. We explore how digital noise destroys professional strategy and personal presence, and exactly how to fix it.

We cover:

The Mutton Curry Paradox: Why the machine gives you what you crave, not what you need.

The Void: What happens when you delete your history and silence the noise.

The Dad Dividend: How clearing the feed gave me my patience back.

Professional ROI: Why "doing less" saved my company from a bad strategy.
