I realised I don't follow events anymore. Everything I know about the world is now filtered through social media, and the funny thing is, I hate every single person on my social media pretty much.
David Boyle is back with another five-minute gem in his podcast, 'I'm Quitting Alcohol'. This time, he takes a comedic swing at trying to catch up on world events. Boyle, known for his raw honesty and sharp wit, admits he's usually too wrapped up in his own personal chaos to pay attention to global happenings.
With a mix of humor and bewilderment, he dives into a newspaper, only to find himself lost in a sea of local news, celebrity gossip, and ads. It's a classic Boyle moment—attempting to expand his horizons but ending up more confused than ever. Boyle's candid reflections highlight how social media and mainstream media can distort our understanding of the world.
His struggle to stay informed is both hilarious and relatable, especially for those who feel overwhelmed by the constant flood of information. Yet, he reassures his listeners that his podcast will steer clear of political debates, sticking to the personal and often chaotic journey of sobriety. This episode is a perfect blend of humor and insight, offering a light-hearted yet thought-provoking look at the challenges of staying informed in today's media landscape.
If you're in need of a laugh and some honest reflection on the absurdity of it all, this one's for you.
