When Confidence beats truth

Why do people double down when their heroes are exposed? Why do some influencers build cults while others build communities?

In this episode, we unpack the psychological mechanics of cult-like behaviour, from groupthink and moral transgressions to the seductive power of certainty. From influencer culture to body language pseudoscience, we challenge the lies we cling to and ask:

🧠 When does loyalty replace logic?
🔥 Why do we mistake confidence for truth?

No sides, no echo chambers, just sharp, honest thinking.

Featuring deep dives into social media manipulation, “expert” authority, Andrew Tate, and the behavioural blind spots we all share.
