			<description><![CDATA[A bio full of kindness. A post full of fury. David starts with a death threat hiding behind a warm Twitter profile and pulls the thread all the way to Karl Popper, the Salem witch trials, and a hobbit who never needed a bio to be decent. This episode is about the gap between who we say we are and what we actually do when we think we're the hero — and the uncomfortable question of when you've been both the bio and the post. Also, Martinelli gives a kid his shirt and makes the rest of us look bad.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
