In this episode, we explore the vital role of nuance in today’s conversations.

We begin by examining how social media has reshaped public discourse, highlighting the rise of performative certainty, the algorithms that reward outrage, and the psychology behind absolutist thinking.

We then unpack the collapse of context, the commodification of outrage, and the emotional pull of spectacle-driven debates.

Finally, we turn to solutions—how we can reclaim nuance by cultivating intellectual humility and embracing constructive disagreement.
