About this listen

Forget speeches and policies — in 2025, it’s all about the clapback. Politicians dunk on rivals, corporations roast their own customers, and trolling has officially become a communication strategy. In this episode, I unpack how memes replaced governance, with a little help from postmodern branding, Debord’s Society of the Spectacle, and the fine art of parasocial outrage. Because nothing says leadership like a well-timed ratio.
