Transmission 3: End of Transmission

The Attention Recession has a root cause. And it's not bad content, bad actors, or too much noise. It's something more fundamental: the infrastructure we built to carry signal was never designed to move meaning. In Transmission Three, Geoffrey Colon traces the collapse of broadcast — not as a format, but as the organizing logic of communication. From Facebook's fabricated video metrics to the optimization loop that replaced transmission with reaction, this is the episode where the diagnosis gets specific. Dead air isn't the end. It's the signal that the frequency is about to change.
