Ep 76: The “Facebook is Screwing Us” Edition – 03.20.18

This week Ashley and Ryan look at the ways in which social media impacts our lived experience. They talk through how social media sculpts our understandings and creates echo chambers for us to revel in. Pull up some earphone, set the InstaSnapTwitChatBook down and hang out with the crew.
