In this episode, Ralph and Jim dig into the question everyone faces online: Who can you trust when you're looking for advice? From health tips and financial hacks to career guidance and DIY fixes, the internet is overflowing with suggestions—but not all of it is worth following. We talk about how to spot the difference between credible, evidence-based advice and the kind that's misleading, manipulative, or just plain wrong.
We also explore the role of AI in this space—what it gets right, where it can fall short, and how to use tools like ChatGPT responsibly. Whether you're Googling symptoms, looking for legal shortcuts, or wondering if that “expert” on TikTok knows what they’re talking about, this episode will help you develop a smarter, more skeptical approach to online advice.
