Show Notes

What would Sherlock Holmes think of social media?

In this episode, we explore how the legendary detective’s methods of deep logic and keen observation completely clash with today’s fast-paced, dopamine-fueled internet culture.

Would Holmes see TikTok as a threat to critical thinking?
Is social media eroding your ability to reason and remember?
How does confirmation bias, echo chambers, and Dunning-Kruger play out online?

We dig into everything from the “brain attic” metaphor to the death of boredom and the rise of emotional reasoning. This is part social commentary, part cognitive science — wrapped in a Sherlockian thought experiment.
