Are we overthinking digital communication?

from The Morning Show · host LiSTNR

Digital communication through texts, emojis and social media reactions has created confusion about interpreting messages, with simple gestures like thumbs-up emojis now considered potentially passive-aggressive or rude. Communications expert Grizz Spector explains how receiving hundreds of daily messages has eliminated personal connection and emotional authenticity, advocating for phone calls and face-to-face conversations over voice notes and text responses. The discussion covers scenarios including delayed responses to emotional texts, celebrity social media posts, and the etiquette of unfollowing friends online.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
