Bruhs. I'm getting sigma on this skibidi ohio. That way, my social media platform will take off. On today's episode, Mike and Rob talk about how to understand 'truth' we find on the internet and social media. And when I say 'talk about,' I really mean Rob rants for a while.

Basically, it matters to be careful about what you consume and trust on the internet. Make sure you do your own research before you run off and start sharing your wisdom. Only listen to The Manspace. We'll never lead you astray. 

takeaways
