TikTok Rage Bait, Boomers, and the Red Lobster Shrimppocalypse
Description
What happens when your podcast co-host accidentally becomes a rage magnet on TikTok? In this episode, Eric and Jared break down the real story behind their viral moment — and use it to expose how the algorithm manipulates engagement, context collapses instantly, and shrimp nearly destroyed a seafood empire. This is AI panic, generational confusion, media theory, and Red Lobster analysis… all in one glorious descent.
Jared went viral. TikTok got angry. Boomers got loud. Red Lobster filed Chapter 11. Everything is connected.
