Episode notes
The Algorithmic Regurgitation
- Duncan critiques social media as an 'infinite regurgitation' that numbs real engagement and political sincerity.
- He suggests performative posts seek reactions rather than authentic contribution.
Choose Better Reactions
- Before posting for a reaction, ask where the idea came from and what you actually care about.
- If you want reactions, create live playful experiences (dance, ballet) rather than spitting words into feeds.
Experience Before Critique
- Duncan reflects on how culture polarizes comedy fans but recognizes humorous shows offer communal release.
- He values experiencing a show firsthand before criticizing it.
