Internet, Are You OK?
Every week, Patrick Ward (neuroplastician and founder of Healing Mindshift) and Lauren Ward (writer and lifelong observer of human nature) explore the internet’s weirdest, wildest stories to ask: what’s really going on here?

You’ll laugh, raise an eyebrow, and maybe even rethink your own story.
