This co-hosted podcast episode tackles the listener question differentiating "gaslighting" and "brainwashing." The hosts discuss the definitions, providing examples of each term in both serious (political contexts) and casual (personal relationships) scenarios. They highlight that "gaslighting" involves manipulation to make someone question their sanity, while "brainwashing" implies a more systematic indoctrination of beliefs. A role-play illustrates how these terms might be used in a confrontational conversation between siblings. Listeners gain a clearer understanding of these terms and how to identify them in everyday life and current events.
