  • re: social media

    We are BACK and in this episode we cover the vast topic of our (many) thoughts on social media. Join us as we pine for 2011 Instagram, and discuss coming of age on social media, the ways in which being online shaped us, and finding and building community on social media platforms. We also reflect on our current relationship to social media and the internet and how social media has dramatically changed over the past decade. 

    We hope you enjoy and thanks for listening!
