The Ham and Pickle Paradox - My Hatred For Social Media!


Listen Later

First of all, my apologies for the late installment!

Anyhow, in this latest episode; Craig Chapman sets aside a planned look into the History of the Thimble to reflect on the erosion of the domestic sanctuary that has been diluted by the dreaded topic if social media!

From the quiet of his favorite sofa spot, Craig examines the divide between his pursuit of "historical belonging" and the relentless, blue-lit pull of the "infinite scroll."

This episode explores:

  • The Privacy of the Showroom: The micro-violation of having one’s evening meal documented for Snapchat without prior consultation.
  • The Missing Person Paradox: Why a walk without a digital "check-in" is now treated as a localized crisis.
  • The Oxford Dictionary of Psychology (1994): A 2.4kg look at "obsession" that doesn't require a cookie consent banner.
  • The Ham and Pickle Incident: Addressing the nosy colleague who monitors the feeds of people they claim to despise.

​We also take a moment to thank Mark from Stoke and Diane from Newcastle for their correspondence.
