Season 4 Episode 8 The Beard Speaks Podcast.
In this episode of The Beard Speaks Podcast, Pat takes a hard look at how rumors and misinformation spread across social media — especially when it comes to public figures and tragic events. Using the recent online storm surrounding Charlie Kirk, Pat explores how digital outrage, conspiracy theories, and comment-section chaos shape the way our society processes truth and grief.
This episode dives into the human side of online reaction culture — how it affects families, fuels division, and distracts from empathy and accountability. Tune in as Pat breaks down the psychology of viral misinformation and what we can do to stop amplifying it.
