I don’t know about you, but we are burned out. Between constant COVID-19 coverage to Election 2020 news, there is barely a moment to disconnect without feeling like you are missing out, or possibly even being irresponsible for ignoring the news. In this episode, we explore the various ways in which news is shared and how that is becoming increasingly detrimental to our mental health. Do we really understand how to source reliable information that truly does inform about the world around us? How is this phenomenon impacting our relationships as we are confronted with information that consistently reinforces our biases? How do we take a step back and protect our mental health while still engaging in our world? Thank you to Michael Lehman for the music. Episode recorded and edited at Cellar Studio 39.
