Summary

"The Other Team Is On Scholarship"

You're not broken — you're being played. In this episode, Rich pulls back the curtain on why doom scrolling feels impossible to stop: there are highly paid professionals whose entire job is to keep you hooked. And if you've got a porn habit layered on top of that? You're in a dopamine loop that makes everything else in life feel gray and flat.

Rich walks through a real coaching conversation with a guy who slipped up — not to shame him, but to investigate what actually happened. What they found was a trail: one notification, a few hours of doom scrolling, and then the familiar chase.

If you've ever asked "what do I do when I'm bored?" — this episode is for you. Rich shares the practical dopamine reset strategies he actually uses: driving in silence, reading novels, walking without your phone, and sitting in the secret place. None of it is flashy. All of it works.

Your dopamine levels can be restored. The sky can be blue again. But it starts with being willing to sit with the discomfort long enough to get there.
