Being engaged with the world doesn't mean we have to let all of it into our heads. This week on The Back 9, it's just Dennis and Josh, talking about everything from the crime against humanity that is mixing 12-year Scotch with Coke to movies, anxiety, meditation, social media and the things we allow to occupy way too much space in our lives. Dennis shares what happened when he dramatically cut back on social media. Josh talks about recognizing his own anxiety around conflict. And together, we wrestle with a bigger question: how do we stay curious, informed and connected without getting consumed by all the noise? Maybe the answer isn't disengaging from the world. Maybe it's becoming more intentional about how we engage with it — and what actually deserves our attention.
