McDonald’s Is Watching, Short Videos Are Changing Us & The Anxiety Trap

from The ProBoh Show · host Rob Grams

In the first part of today’s show, we looked at how McDonald’s managed to build a staggering 515-page dossier on one customer, and what it reveals about how much companies can learn about our habits. Then we discussed new research linking short-form video addiction to a decline in teenagers’ ability to cope with academic stress. Today’s unpopular opinion was: constant reassurance makes anxiety worse. In the second half of the show, we asked 100 humans: name a common cause of anxiety.
