The Lie Of "Stranger Danger" | Full Auto Friday | 2/27.26

Four questions for today's Q and A that all center on responsibility and perspective. We start with a man in a movie theater watching someone try to enter through an emergency exit, his mind flashing back to the Aurora theater shooting and wondering ever since if he should have acted or done more. From there, a husband blindsided by his wife saying she's leaving and facing the reality of telling his two young sons. The third question comes from a man recovering from major surgery who feels useless and like a burden on his wife while he heals. We close by tackling whether it's smarter to openly acknowledge the risks young men and women face online, or ignore what is statistically unlikely but emotionally unsettling.   Pre-Order my upcoming book Drownproof here:  https://static.macmillan.com/static/smp/drownproof-9781250379610/ New Cleared Hot Merch: https://shop.clearedhotpodcast.com/collections/podcast-gear   Today's Sponsors: Betterwild: Right now, Betterwild is offering our listeners up to 40% off your order at https://www.betterwild.com/CLEAREDHOT   AG1: For a limited time only, go to https://www.drinkAG1.com/CLEAREDHOT to get a FREE AG1 Flavor Sampler and AGZ Sampler to try all the flavors, plus FREE Vitamin D3+K2 and AG1 Welcome Kit with your first AG1 subscription order!
