I'm sure you ask yourself this question fairly often... Is social media still social? In this episode, Garth provides some thought-provoking nuggets on the sentiment around social media by covering some of his earliest memories around social platforms, the lifestyle & societal changes that have come from social, all while giving some honest opinions along the way.

Little update...

It has been 2 months exactly since we released our Season 2 teaser episode and we haven't published a full episode yet - we're sorry that we haven't been able to knuckle down and create something that's ready for the world to hear. This "episode" is just a quick download to why we've been so quiet, but it's also a promise that we WILL release new episodes. When that will happen, I can't say for now, but we're so grateful for the love and support we still get.  

You either love or hate social media - there's no two ways about it. Kelvin Jonck, MD of YouKnow and digital professional, chats with us in this episode about social media sentiment around topics such as online (data) privacy, Governments, and advertising/branding.

The @innocent account on Twitter is one of the top 10 social media brands in the world, but who is the person who writes those magic Tweets for them? His name is John Thornton and we ask him some serious and not-so-serious questions about himself as a copywriter and all about Innocent Smoothies. John also gives us a taste of the ingredients needed for that special-smoothie-sauce, for making such a social media account as successful as theirs.

We wanted to find out if influencers are actually influential, so we invited our special guest, friend, and Kenyan social media Influencer, Brian Mbunde (@BrianMbunde) on the show to discuss this topic.  There's no simple answer to this question, but we there some great insights given by Brian that we never knew - have a listen & enjoy.

Here it is - an entire episode on our favourite social network; Twitter. We cover all the elements that make this platform as powerful & functional as it is today and we invited a special guest (@Lebo_Kunene) to talk about the ins and outs of Black Twitter (and trust us, this is a must listen-to segment).  Apologies for the poor audio in the second half of this podcast.
