Feeds created by people, not algorithms.

I’ve spent decades working in television, which means I’ve been professionally staring at screens since long before social media melted our brains. I got tired of watching algorithms divide us, so I started MindBrief as an attempt to fight back.
Curation as a creative act is not new to the internet, but today it feels more necessary than ever.
My playlists are designed to consolidate signal around a topic, idea, or strange corner of the internet I think deserves sunlight. Every video was handpicked by me, never by a machine.
The goal isn’t to tell you what to think, but to track stories from multiple angles without algorithmic intervention.
If I'm lucky, MindBrief bursts a few media bubbles along the way (starting with my own).
