679. Escaping Social Media Hell - With Jordan Allen of Uptrust

679. Escaping Social Media Hell - With Jordan Allen of Uptrust

Author: Mark Walsh February 27, 2025 Duration: 50:07

Uptrust and Relatefulness founder Jordan Myska Allen joins me to tackle one of the biggest challenges of our time - social media. We dig into the dark side of the platforms we all love to hate: polarization, narcissism, addiction, and how algorithms keep us hooked and divided. But Jordan has a plan. He introduces Uptrust, a radical new approach to online interaction designed to promote trust, reduce echo chambers, and foster real conversation instead of rage-fueled clickbait. We cover social credit ratings, marketing manipulation, Ukraine, and whether social media can actually save the world rather than destroy it. An essential listen for anyone tired of the status quo.
