In the inaugural episode of Middle Outcast, hosts Myke and Tom set the stage for their ambitious mission to foster real conversations in a fractured world. They discuss the challenges of polarization, the harm of “memeification,” and the power of honest dialogue in bridging ideological divides. With humor, humility, and a vision for connection, they share their motivations, outline their goals, and introduce the philosophy behind the podcast’s name. If you’re seeking meaningful discussion that transcends echo chambers, this is the perfect starting point.
