Intro Song: "California Cotton Fields" by @TheMerleHaggard #spotify #coversong
In this legendary episode, Ross of Nazareth opens the show with a soulful live performance of “California Cotton Fields”, setting the tone for an unforgettable ride. What follows is a fearless exploration of truth — Ross sheds light on the hidden forces shaping your digital world: gigantic social media firms, AI technology, and the monetary power influencing which podcasts appear in your feed. He exposes how these feeds are littered with fake comments designed to manipulate perception. Why? As evolutionary psychology reveals, when people think others like something — whether it’s a genre of music, a type of food, or even a brand of dish detergent — they almost instantaneously follow suit. This episode peels back the curtain on that manipulation… and dares you to see through the illusion.
