 🎙️ EPISODE 14 DESCRIPTION

 The Cost of Attention

You ever pick up your phone for one thing… and lose 20 minutes doing everything else?

That’s not an accident.
That’s design.

In this episode of The Cost of Culture, we break down how your attention has become one of the most valuable currencies in today’s world—and how it’s being bought, sold, and controlled every single day.

From endless scrolling and notifications to the way algorithms shape what you see, think, and feel… this isn’t just about social media.

It’s about your time.
Your focus.
Your peace.

And the real question is…

What are we really paying for?
 
 
🔥 In This Episode:
 

•  Why attention is the new currency 
•  How apps are designed to keep you locked in 
•  The mental and emotional cost of constant stimulation 
•  Are you using your phone… or is it using you?
