Summary

In an era that preaches freedom, why do we feel so controlled and exhausted? In this episode, we revisit the prophetic vision of Aldous Huxley to decipher the biggest lie of modernity. We discuss how, instead of being controlled by force, we are tamed by pleasure, living in a "Happy Prison" made of digital distractions, consumption, and performative happiness. Prepare to question the nature of your freedom and discover if you are really free or just a voluntary prisoner.
