S3E1: Let's Go On A Media Diet
Description
Welcome to Season 3 of Oh This World! This season is all about action — asking tough questions, challenging old playbooks, and pushing beyond reaction into purpose-driven activism.
Today, we’re diving into media diets — how we consume news, manage emotional spirals, and stay informed without burning out. If you’ve been doomscrolling or feel overwhelmed by constant updates, it’s time to curate your news intake.
Key Takeaways:
🔹 A good media diet balances awareness, emotional regulation, and action.
🔹 Cut down on excessive sources — stick to a mix of breaking news, investigative journalism, and analysis.
🔹 Turn off news notifications and switch to a daily digest for clarity.
🔹 Unfollow rage-bait and focus on information that fuels action, not just anxiety.
Action Item:
Start your media diet today. Make small adjustments — turn off alerts, unsubscribe from outrage cycles, and help friends do the same. Thoughtful, sustainable engagement is how we fight authoritarianism.
