Hello again | Been Awake with LB | #111

After an extended hiatus, L.B. Muniz returns with a deep and wide-ranging monologue about why he stepped away, what brought him back, and why making sense of the world feels harder—and more necessary—than ever. This is less a “hot takes” episode and more a reflection on political violence, the death of easy ideologies, the sickness of wishing harm on enemies, the limits of politics itself, and how the internet has shattered traditional culture into a thousand distributed tribes.
