In Episode 12: we discuss some connected themes from the ‘walk and talk’ that opened up so many relevant topics. We reflect on the wisdom handed down by some of our poets over time and we recall a comment made by Seamus Heaney, the Poet Laureate who referred to every generation being on its own conveyor belt.  This led us to a discussion about technology, social media, and all of the landscape on which the upcoming generation is living and attempting to navigate.  We discuss the need for scrutiny over the dissemination of information and scrutiny with regard to the potentially damaging powers that social media can have in influencing people in many respects even with regards to how people vote.
