He joins Big Technology Podcast to discuss his No. 1 bestselling book, digging into why he wrote it, how news differs from social platforms (and to what degree), and why We also cover the strange psychology of fame, how figures like Trump and Musk weild attention for political power, and why most social platforms are seeing declining user engagement despite their algorithmic optimization. Hit play for a conversation that reveals why our relationship with technology resembles our relationship with food — a biological necessity transformed into an unhealthy craving that reflects deeper voids in modern life.
