No, Our Phones Aren't Killing Us

Feb 25, 2025

A lot of what we do on our phones — maybe even most of it — is positive and productive, argues Bradley, but we need to clearly differentiate between good habits and mindless scrolling. He lays out the concept of "a screen time diet" that evaluates our digital consumption just like we do our nutritional intake. Plus, what brings Trump crashing back to earth, how a broken City Hall affects life in New York and why short players are great for basketball.

This episode was taped at P&T Knitwear at 180 Orchard Street — New York City’s only free podcast recording studio.
