Antony sits down with Axel Burlin - author of "Beyond Brain Rot" - for an eye-opening conversation.

Together, they unpack what the term means beneath the meme and break down how excessive social media exposure is reshaping attention spans, weakening critical thinking, and quietly flooding young minds with cognitive overload.

What if the actual cost of endless scrolling is not just lost time - but a slower, foggier, more anxious brain?

Axel explains the neuroscience behind dopamine loops, why infinite scroll keeps users mentally hooked, and how constant digital stimulation can leave people feeling mentally dull, emotionally fragile, and unusually vulnerable to manipulation by whatever content the algorithm serves next.

They also cover the emotional fallout: why brain fog and heavy scrolling often travel with rising anxiety, low mood, and that hard-to-name feeling of being mentally scattered even after hours online.

Finally, the two discuss practical solutions - what early warning signs to watch for, how to protect cognitive clarity in a hyper-stimulating world, and what it takes to rebuild a sharp, focused mind.

If you care about mental performance, emotional resilience, and staying mentally awake in the age of algorithms, this is a conversation you do not want to miss.
