What We Learned From a Year of Reading, Deleting, and Resisting

Plus: how a German philosopher convinced us the internet might be broken

Oh, you thought we were done for 2025?

Naaahhhh, the Chaos Club reads again!! 🏴‍☠️

Our 2025 year-end episodes are a two-parter.

First, we get practical: Megan's deleting Instagram, Rachel bought a Brick for her phone, and we're both collecting vinyl again. We talk about reading over 100 books, the power of classics, and why we refuse to let Amazon's AI chatbot replace our conversations.

Then we go philosophical with Byung-Chul Han's The Crisis of Narration—exploring how digital capitalism turned community-building stories into marketing tools, and whether we can still find genuine connection online.

If you need a break from family convos or want some company on the road, Rachel and I are wrapping up the year and looking ahead to 2026. We’re not gonna get any more organized, just so you know.

Thanks for being with us this year!
