  • Summary

  • In this episode, we dive deep into the concept of superficial thinking and its pervasive influence in our society. Starting from a viral social media post about Portugal’s supposed divorce rate, I explore how easily misconceptions can spread, fueling shallow judgments. From personal anecdotes to philosophical musings, I break down the dangers of surface-level thinking, its impact on belief systems, and the importance of critical thinking.


    We’ll look at the process that leads our minds to form beliefs and why we often accept certain ideas without question, even as children. The episode also delves into the contrasts between superficiality and wisdom, addressing the role of cognitive biases and how we can cultivate a more reflective approach to life’s complexities.
