Description

In this episode, we talk about the curious style of “humble bragging” — when someone pretends to put themselves down, but the story somehow ends as a self-praise. Why does it make us uncomfortable? Why does it feel cunning rather than charming? We explore examples, the psychology behind it, and how it differs from true self-deprecating humor, which carries honesty, risk, and even warmth. In an age of social media and growing desire for approval, weakness is often hidden behind a mask of modest pride. Can we laugh at ourselves without fear? Let’s think about what real humility means.
