Media Mindfulness in the Age of Misinformation: A Conversation with Kira Shishkin
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In today’s episode, Shannon sits down with Kira Shishkin, the CEO and founder of informed, a text-based news service designed to protect your attention in a world of noise, clickbait, and constant distraction.
Kira’s journey is anything but conventional. From growing up in the midst of geopolitical conflict in Ukraine and Israel to working in high-level finance and venture capital, he shares how personal experiences with information overload and propaganda led him to create a radically different way to consume news.
Together, they explore:
- How misinformation shaped Kira’s worldview from a young age
- The emotional toll of trying to stay informed today
- Why traditional news models are fundamentally misaligned with the reader
- What attention terrorism is—and how it affects your nervous system
- The concept of media mindfulness and what it looks like in practice
- How informed delivers news with zero ads, zero noise, and full alignment with the reader
Kira also gives a behind-the-scenes look at building a mission-driven company without compromising integrity—and what it means to stay the course when the world tells you to monetize attention instead.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the media, unsure of what to trust, or tempted to check out altogether—this episode will help you see a new way forward.
