Category: Digital Communication & Relationships
In this episode, Armand DiMele and Roberta Moriarty explore the complex relationship humans have with media, particularly radio and television. They discuss how these mediums affect our emotions and perceptions, shifting our brain activity from analytical thinking to a more passive, emotional state. The hosts delve into the psychological impact of media consumption, including the addictive nature of television and the way it can manipulate feelings and thoughts. They also touch on the societal implications of fear-based programming and the evolution of media consumption among younger generations, who are increasingly engaging with interactive platforms rather than traditional television.
