Episode 240: The Dark Side of the Influencer World, Plus a Conversation with Andrew Erwin


Listen Later

Social media and other online platforms seem harmless, but there are some real dangers out there. The Plugged In team reflects on a new Wall Street Journal article that reveals the unsettling fact that most online influencers are teenage girls while their audiences are primarily adult men. You’ll be encouraged to better protect your kids online. Adam Holz then speaks with Christian filmmaker Andrew Erwin.
