🎧 CULTURE CHECK II: Are We Losing the Plot?

Data & Dissonance — Friday 3/6/26

Something strange is happening in modern culture.

Everyone’s filming everything.
Every moment becomes content.
Everyone online is suddenly a life coach.
And now AI is writing our emails, texts… even our dating messages.

So tonight on Data & Dissonance, we step back and ask a bigger question:

Are we still living our lives… or just narrating them?

In this week’s Friday Culture Check, the panel breaks down:

• Main Character Syndrome and the performance of everyday life
• Whether convenience is quietly making us weaker
• Why everyone online suddenly became a “life coach”
• AI writing our messages and what that means for real communication
• Filming strangers for content and the attention economy behind it

Sharp. Funny. Observational.
No party lines — just a real conversation about modern culture.
