In this candid and challenging episode, Scotty B tackles one of the most polarizing topics in cosplay and online culture—attention-seeking. He explores why so many creators crave visibility, how social media rewards extreme behavior, and what happens when the pursuit of attention replaces the pursuit of meaning. Scotty unpacks the psychology behind needing to be seen, from childhood validation wounds to the dopamine cycles built into every platform. He asks the hard question: is wanting attention inherently bad, or just misunderstood? This episode invites listeners to look deeper at their own motives—not to judge them, but to understand them—and to learn how to turn the need to be seen into authentic self-expression rather than performance for approval.
