S01E09 Music Hits Different

from The world through my eyes · host Matt Fairhurst

If you listen to music quietly in the background… we need to talk.In this episode of The World Through My Eyes, I dive into my slightly unhinged relationship with music — from full-body trance moments in the kitchen to the absolute chaos of people who skip songs after seven seconds. Why does one tune send me back to being 14 in the sunshine while everyone else is just… stirring their tea?I’m talking emotional time travel, serial skippers, the volume police, and the public menace of people who play music out loud on their phones like we’re all attending their personal concert.It’s funny, it’s sarcastic, it’s painfully relatable… and, for once, there’s a little bit of the real stuff too — because music genuinely does hit different for some of us.If you’ve ever had a song completely take you out… this one’s for you.🎧 Listen now and tell me — is it just me… or are humans weird with music?
