#91-Did We Optimize the Magic Out of It?

Remember when you had to wait for things?

A new episode each week. Saving up for a CD and listening from front to back. Planning your night around one game you couldn’t miss.

Now we binge entire seasons, skip songs after 15 seconds, and watch highlights before the game’s even over.

This week, we talk about what happens when scarcity disappears, and everything becomes instantly available. Does unlimited access flatten the experience? Are we savoring less and consuming more?

Did convenience make life better… or did we quietly optimize the magic out of it?
