Outrage Overload: Staying grounded through science and balanced perspectives
If you're angry, frustrated, or scared about the state of politics and media and looking for thoughtful, balanced discussions, this podcast is for you. About 30 minutes every few weeks. It will change your life.
Outrage Overload explores the extreme polarization and political bias dominating politics and media today. We dive into the anger and outrage that drive divisions between people, distort the news, and fuel political violence. Each episode features leading scientists, researchers, authors, and community leaders tackling topics like outrage fatigue, toxic polarization, extremism, healthy conflict, disinformation, social media's role in outrage, and the influence of technology and artificial intelligence.
Join us to rediscover humanity in your rivals, improve your mental health, and find practical strategies to feel less stressed and more in control in a world fueled by outrage.
Outrage Overload: Staying grounded through science and balanced perspectives
Okay Boomer - Mental Health - Valerie Beck
Why do younger generations feel so disconnected from the world their parents grew up in? Are millennials just complaining, or is there something deeper at play?
In this special OK Boomer episode of Outrage Overload, host David Beckemeyer sits down with Valerie Beck, a holistic health practitioner and founder of Intrepid Wellness, to explore the complex dynamics between boomers and millennials. From shifting expectations to the weight of generational trauma, Valerie shares insights from her research and coaching experience, shedding light on what younger generations wish older ones understood—and vice versa.
Are boomers and millennials speaking different languages, or can we find common ground? Tune in as we explore the tensions, challenge assumptions, and uncover what it takes to bridge the gap.
