In this week’s episode, Mr. Nees and Mr. Bond discuss The Wolf in Their Pockets by Chris Martin, a timely exploration of how social media shapes the way we think, feel, and understand ourselves. Their conversation highlights how entertainment and identity have become increasingly intertwined in the digital age—and how the distortion of human purpose often follows when we give our attention to the wrong things.

Drawing from the book’s core insights, they reflect on the reality that we are deeply formed by whatever we devote our time to. With the average person spending nearly two and a half hours on social media each day, they consider the profound influence these platforms have on our values, habits, and sense of self. As they observe, our values are inevitably shaped by the people and things we spend the most time with.

Join them for a thoughtful and challenging discussion on digital formation, human purpose, and how to pursue wisdom in a world filled with voices competing for our attention.
