LifeBlood: Are you a terrible person?

Probably not. But how would you know?

Character isn't only revealed by the enormous decisions we make. It's revealed by the tiny things we do when there's no reward for behaving well and almost no consequence for behaving badly.

Do you return the shopping cart? Pick up garbage you didn't drop? Let someone merge? Say thank you? Treat service workers with respect? Keep your word?

Or do you constantly look for tiny advantages while making somebody else absorb the cost?

This episode explores the small behaviors that create, or destroy, high-trust societies, why the shopping cart is such an interesting test of character, and the difference between people who build bridges, plant seeds, and simply leave garbage behind.

The question isn't whether you're perfect.

It's whether the world is slightly better because you're in it.
