Andrew is back to continue his episode on Cultivation Theory. This time, we examine the history of Cultivation Theory, how it applies to the modern digital age, and what helpful strategies we can use to bridge the communication divide.

Host Andrew Owens has a question—in a time where we are so connected, how can we be so divided? That's a question with many answers, yet Andrew argues that this breakdown in communication between folks can be explained using a theory of communication known as Cultivation theory.

With a personal story around Halloween and exploring how one TV show- I Love Lucy- acts as an example of Cultivation Theory in practice, the answers are starting to form ahead.

The Breakdown is a capstone project published in partnership with Sinclair Community College.
