Episode Script

Ah yes. "Everything sucks nowadays," right? That’s the rallying cry, isn’t it? The anthem of our modern era. Movies? Trash. TV shows? Predictable drivel. Music? Soulless. Even pizza—pizza!—is apparently not as good if it has pineapple on it. But let me tell you a secret. It’s not because the world suddenly forgot how to make good art or entertainment or make food. Oh, no. It’s because of us. Because of you. Because of me. Because of this digital dopamine drip we’re all hopelessly addicted to.
Think about it. Every time you scroll through social media, every like, every notification, every little ding or swipe—it’s a hit. Dopamine, dopamine, dopamine. We’re burning it up like it’s going out of style. Our brains have become these overworked dopamine junkies. So when you sit down to watch a movie at the end of the day, your brain’s like, "Wait, where’s the constant stream of micro-rewards? Why isn’t there a new shiny thing every 2.5 seconds? Why can’t I swipe to the next plot twist?"
That’s why everything feels dull now. Not because it is dull, but because we’ve recalibrated what it means to feel entertained. Social media isn’t just draining our attention spans—it’s lowering our tolerance for genuine, slow-burning enjoyment. We’re all chasing the next big high, and when a story takes its time or a joke doesn’t land in 10 seconds flat, we bail. We blame the thing itself instead of our fried receptors.
And then there’s the other piece of this puzzle—the clout chasers, the internet pundits, the fandom curmudgeons. The ones who’ve built entire online personas around trashing everything. Why? Because it works. It gets clicks. The Negativity Algorithm breeds engagement, you guys. People love a good takedown. So these critics, these so-called "fans," they become louder, angrier, more dramatic. "This new Marvel movie is the worst thing since unbuttered toast!" "This TV show ruined my childhood!" Really? Did it? Or do you just know that saying it sucks will get you a thousand retweets and a few sponsorship deals?
What’s wild is that this negativity creates a feedback loop. You go online, you see everyone saying something sucks, so you think it must suck too. Then you watch it with this preloaded cynicism and no dopamine left in your brain, already looking for reasons to confirm it sucks. And guess what? You find them. Congratulations. You’ve just participated in the self-fulfilling prophecy of cultural despair.
But here’s the truth: Art hasn’t gotten worse. Entertainment hasn’t gotten worse. We’ve just become worse at being entertained. And until we break free from this dopamine-depleting cycle of doom scrolling and stop letting clout-chasing critics dictate our opinions, we’re going to keep thinking everything sucks.
So maybe next time we sit down to watch a movie or listen to an album or just enjoy something—take a breath. Unplug for a minute. Give yourself permission to just… enjoy. No hashtags. No hot takes. Just you and the thing itself. You might be surprised at how good things still are when you give them a chance.
And you can give Egotastic FunTime a chance by liking and subscribing. I’ll see you next time and I hope all your times are Egotastic Dopamine Filled FunTimes. Love you bye bye!
