In this episode of Social Sleuth, I discuss all things surveillance with Dr. Midori Ogasawara. 

Bringing it back to where it all began - I am honoured to have Midori as a guest here on Social Sleuth, given her classes are what really got me thinking about the topics I discuss on this podcast! 

We talk about some of her latest work and lay down the hard truths of the digital and surveilled world we live in. Don’t worry there is hope - we just have to act.

In this episode of Social Sleuth, I discuss all things BookTok with Sydney, the creator behind Bloody Brilliant Books.

Getting outside my area of expertise to dive into a very high traction area of the web - BookTok, which encompasses short form video content (specifically on TikTok) aimed at recommending books to fellow readers. We talk about the benefits, for both readers and authors alike, and discuss a bit of the controversy within the community and industry.

In this episode of Social Sleuth, I discuss all things interwebs with nobody else than MY MOM! We hope you enjoy our genuine conversation that takes many side quests - parenting, growing-up, surveillance, wellness, if it’s on the web we probably mentioned it. 

that may be a bit dramatic… but so is this episode. 

with love, Kenny.

In this episode of Social Sleuth, I discuss all things misinformation with Matthew Facciani, a social scientist who works at the University of Notre Dame, studying information systems, media literacy and how people interact with AI. 

Matthew is engaged with so much of this growing body of research, both in his own work and that of others in the field. It was such a treat to talk about a slew of topics, including social identity, media literacy, and political polarization - all of which benefitted from his informed and balanced perspective.

In this episode of Social Sleuth I sit down with Aidan Walker, a writer, content creator, and internet culture researcher. 

THIS GUY MEMES and there is a lot to take away from this conversation about surveillance, algorithms, the future of memes and much much more.

In this inaugural episode of Social Sleuth, I dive into the complexity of memes with a long-time friend, Marnus. 

A fun conversation to say the least, and one I hope makes you think a bit about how you consume content online.
