Why does everything feel so angry?
In this 2025 year-in-review episode, George Monty examines the forces he believes are driving polarization, outrage, anxiety, and social division—from rage bait and the attention economy to political conflict, economic inequality, AI, changing demographics, health reform, and the struggle over who controls the narrative.
The conversation moves through the year's major cultural and political themes as George asks whether society is becoming increasingly organized around outrage because outrage captures attention.
He explores the relationship between social media and anger, the economics of attention, political polarization, class conflict, wealth concentration, housing, demographic change, AI and employment, health reform, preventative health, and the possibility of replacing divisive narratives with more unifying ones.
The episode also considers the rise of AI as an everyday tool, including its potential benefits and risks, and asks how increasingly powerful technology might reshape work, culture, education, and human relationships.
Topics include: rage bait, outrage culture, attention economy, social media manipulation, political polarization, class conflict, wealth inequality, housing, demographic change, artificial intelligence, AI and jobs, health reform, preventative healthcare, technology and society, and the future of human culture.
This is a commentary and year-in-review episode. Political claims and predictions expressed in the conversation represent the participants’ perspectives, not established facts.
