Episode 2253 – On this Sunday’s show, Vinnie Tortorich and Gina Grad talk about the possible negative effects of things like auto-tune and app filters, the unrealistic expectations they cause, and more.
UNREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS
- Vinnie and Gina start the show by chatting about the Eagles (band), their music, and how they never needed auto-tune. (2:00)
- This leads to a long discussion about auto-tune and app filters like Facetune, and the unrealistic expectations they set. (6:00)
- As a result, there is a constant drive to appear idealized instead of real, and “to keep up with the Joneses”.
- It creates insecurities about impossible body standards in people, especially young girls.
- This leads to a conversation about plastic surgery and the lengths people will go to fit an idealized standard. (10:20)
- They also chat about having smaller tweaks done and things that are a medical necessity.
- They discuss the concept of “the identified patient” and what it means. (18:20)
- Both Gina and Vinnie get a little existential when the conversation talks about purpose and Paul Newman’s Daytona watch. (19:00)
