The Death of Pop Culture: How the iPhone Killed Our Shared World

Has pop culture died — or have we just lost our shared story?

In this episode, Joel Fieri explores how the release of the iPhone in 2007 (and especially the front-facing camera in 2010) marked the death of pop culture — and maybe culture itself. Drawing from Matt Walsh’s analysis and a biblical perspective from Proverbs 29:18 (“Where there is no vision, the people perish”), Joel unpacks how social media, smartphones, and self-centered living have fractured our once-shared sense of meaning.

What happens to a society when every person lives in their own algorithmic bubble? How do Christians navigate this silent, fragmented culture — and what vision can bring us back together?
