(3:00) Vinnie has established two rules for himself based on this. He never wants to risk wasting time. They discuss how much screen time people have, with multiple screens being viewed at once. (15:00) This leads to a discussion about storytelling and older movies. Vinnie spends as little time as possible on screen and on social media. (28:30) Chris found a study about how bad health and fitness influencers often are. (30:30) So they found that 78% of health, fitness, and diet influencers are unqualified. More than two-thirds of the posts that they analyzed contained misleading, deceptive, or completely untrue information. They discuss misinformation online and in ads.
