A Burden For The Times

Viral Villains

Burden Brothers Season 4 Episode 116

In this episode of A Burden for the Times, we take a deep dive into the rise of “viral villains” — those caught in a moment and broadcast to millions. From a CEO’s public downfall at a Coldplay concert to the culture of internet outrage, we ask:

  • Why are we so quick to shame?
  • When does justice become entertainment?
  • Can we separate news from noise?

We explore the culture of instant judgment, the role of social media in amplifying shame, and how believers can respond with wisdom and grace. This episode challenges us to think deeper about sin, justice, and the gospel in an era where everything — even our worst moments — can become someone else’s content.
