Disgruntalist Time

In this episode we look at trying to separate wellness culture from spirituality and the harm that comes from the association between the two. We look at why wellness influencers appeal to us, how they shortcircuit our brains, and how self-improvement isn't something that comes with products you can sell or be sponsored by. Exercise and meditation aren't products that can be sold. Also we look at a certain prominent online "guru" and cultural commentator and debunk a few of the techniques used to simultanously garner views while being seemingly innocent of stoking controversy.
