Calling Out the Real Root Causes of our Loneliness

Welcome to The Loneliness Industry — a podcast that stops blaming individuals for the epidemic of loneliness and starts calling out the systems fueling it. From late-stage capitalism and disconnection culture to toxic positivity and performative relationships, nothing’s off-limits. We debunk Western spiritualism, dissect self-help clichés, and question the industries profiting from our pain. This is a space for those who feel the ache of isolation — and suspect it’s not all their fault. Join us as we explore the deeper roots of modern loneliness and reimagine connection beyond capitalist narratives.
