Season 2 continues with a conversation about conflict, identity, and what happens when conversations spill out of the digital world and into real life. In this episode, we unpack a strange and unsettling experience: being targeted online after podcast conversations were taken out of context. What starts as a discussion about free expression quickly turns into a deeper exploration of reputation, internet culture, and the blurry line between speaking honestly and dealing with the consequences. We talk about the reality of putting your thoughts into the world — the fear that someone might misinterpret you, the tension between authenticity and self-censorship, and the strange feeling of realizing how much personal information is publicly accessible. From negative reviews and online accusations to the emotional impact on family and business, this episode wrestles with the question: how do you stay grounded when criticism becomes personal? Along the way, we reflect on anger, pride, and the instinct to “double down” when challenged. Are we defending principles — or just protecting our egos? When does standing your ground become stubbornness? And how do you navigate disagreement without losing your humanity? There’s humor, frustration, and some honest self-examination as we talk about customer service experiences, social media arguments, and the temptation to get pulled into endless online battles. Ultimately, this conversation is about trying to understand the world we’re living in — where opinions travel fast, context disappears, and the stakes can feel surprisingly real. If you’ve ever worried about being misunderstood, dealt with online criticism, or struggled with how much of yourself to share publicly, this episode will resonate.
