WTF - Coldplaying the News
from The Dave Bowman Show
This week on *What The Frock?*, Rabbi Dave and Friar Rod take on the so-called top story of the week—no, not international conflict or political scandal, but a kiss cam moment at a Coldplay concert. What begins as bemused commentary quickly unravels into a deeper exploration of how news is chosen, shaped, and sold. Who decides what matters? Why do nonsense stories rise while real headlines vanish? From \$20 million influencer grifts to AI-powered meme machines, the frocked duo dig into the growing influence of the digital state and the unsettling possibility that we’re all just following stories designed to distract. With signature wit and just enough theological sarcasm to sting, Rabbi Dave and Friar Rod ask the question that should be on everyone’s mind—what if the news isn’t news at all? Tune in for laughs, uncomfortable truths, and a whole lot of Coldplay you didn’t ask for.
