Think First with Jim Detjen
Think First is a short-form podcast that makes you pause — before you scroll, share, or believe the headline.
Hosted by Jim Detjen, a guy who’s been gaslit enough to start a podcast about it, Think First dives into modern narratives, media manipulation, and cultural BS — all through the lens of gaslighting and poetic truth.
Some episodes are two minutes. Some are ten. It depends on the story — and the energy drink situation.
No rants. No lectures. Just sharp questions, quick insights, and the occasional laugh to keep things sane.
Whether you’re dodging spin in the news, politics, or that “trust me, bro” post in your feed… take a breath. Think first.
Visit Gaslight360.com/clarity to sharpen your BS filter and explore the 6-step clarity framework.

The OG Listener's Call to Arms
No flaming cars. No gaslighting breakdowns. Just a quick bonus drop to say… we’re at 200 downloads per episode — and it’s time to grow. This one’s for the OGs, the founding listeners, the people who laugh at the dark stuff and think for themselves. If that’s you, we need your help.
Text a friend. Post the link. Whisper it to your dog.
Because the only way smart voices cut through the noise… is if you send the signal.
Stay sharp. Stay skeptical. #SpotTheGaslight

Hey friends, quick bonus drop today no politics, no poetic truth, no flaming cars Just you, me and a little marketing judo. Here's the deal. Right now, think First is sitting at just over 200 downloads per episode. Not bad, but you know what else is just over 200? The number of contacts in your phone. You haven't texted since 2016. We can do better.
Speaker 1:If you've been listening, nodding, laughing or shouting finally into your cup of coffee, congratulations, you're an early adopter and odds are you actually know me, or you're just a fan of my wife and kids doing their thing, usually louder, cooler and way more entertaining than me. Here's what I'm asking Open your messages, pick five smart friends or five chaos junkies. Either works. Paste this. Hey, have you heard this podcast? Think first. It's funny, sharp and doesn't insult your intelligence. You'll love it. Then drop in the link Boom Done. Or post the link on LinkedIn under something vaguely titled Reflections on Leadership. Toss it in your Instagram story between your gym selfie and your toddler's snack meltdown. Whisper it into the comment section of a viral political meltdown. Or, if you've got a decent TikTok following, make a 10-second rant and point people to the show. Bonus points if you use puppets or a strong accent.
Speaker 1:You don't need to go full influencer. You just need to do one thing to help this grow, because growth isn't some vague podcast dream. It's the only way this show survives in a world that's way louder and way dumber than it used to be. You are a founding listener, one of the first the OGs, the I was listening before it sold out crew. You get to be smug later, but only if you help. Now. Let's take this from 200 to 2,000, then 20,000, then 200,000. And every person you send it to, that's one more brain on alert, one more voice in the conversation, one more human who doesn't fall for, mostly peaceful. So text it, tweet it, drop it in that family group chat that's still recovering from Thanksgiving. Be the reason someone else starts thinking first, and if you're still listening to this bonus episode, you're already that person. Now hit, send. Thank you.
