About this listen

 Everything’s on fire — and everyone’s yelling. Hot takes. Bad faith. Outrage as a business model. But here’s the thing: when everyone’s losing their mind… keeping yours is a radical act. This is Cooler Heads — where we cut through the noise, torch the BS, and talk like adults. No panic. No propaganda. Just cooler heads prevailing.Jess and Johnny Social Sciences
