Welcome back to season 3 of Weekly Political Pep Talks! Today's main topic will be social and society, a topic we've dubbed 'The Digital Dilemma'. We'll start the episode with a quick intro then we'll get into some current events for the week, regarding the Supreme Court's shocking overturn of Roe v. Wade and the spread of the monkeypox virus. Next, we'll move on to our main topic segment about social media. We'll start with some definitions related to this topic, look at some background on how social media in the US started, its relationship with addiction, marketing, mental health, and political polarization, then share our thoughts. If you have any thoughts you'd like to share with us, feel free to DM us on Instagram @weeklypoliticalpeptalks. That's it for today, so be sure to join us next week. Happy listening and stay political!
