Maybe you’ve noticed that the age of BS is upon us. Coming at us from all directions. The Media. The government. Business. Gurus and friends and enemies. Everyone is getting full of it and the spin is so intense it’s even making the spinners dizzy.

Wade in and learn the full dimensions of a cultural trend we really, really, didn’t need.
