TikTok as The New Tumblr: How Social Media (Overtly) Counters The Body Positivity Movement26 Sep 202400:31:10

TW: This episode contains discussions about body image, weight loss, disordered and restrictive eating, self harm and other topics that listeners may consider traumatic. 

In this week's episode, I explore how TikTok's algorithm and early platform priorities primed the app to overtly counter the body positivity movement and why some believe that Gen Z's favourite app has become as toxic as 2000s Tumblr.

Farewell Tom: The Rise & Fall of Myspace04 Apr 202400:30:48

In this week's episode, I explore the rise and fall of Myspace— the first site that put social networking on the map at a global scale. I look at Myspace's origins, why the site became so popular, and its cultural impact, including some of the most prolific artists and influencers to come out of the platform. I also go into how and why Myspace ultimately failed, and the legacy it left behind for Millennials online. RaWrrrrrr <3

Anti-Intellectualism & The Downfall of Commentary Creators28 Mar 202400:35:28

In this week's episode, I explore the rise and (inevitable) fall of the commentary genre. I cover the origins of this content, the rise of this genre on YouTube, and why I believe we're about to see its downfall. I look at how the rise of anti-intellectualism, a decline in media literacy, and the death of the monoculture— all amplified by the introduction of TikTok— will likely be the main reasons for the downfall of commentary content.

The Unregulated World of 'Child Influencers'21 Mar 202400:33:27

In this week's episode, I explore the very dark consequences of putting children online. I specifically focus on children whose parents post on their behalf— turning them into 'child influencers.' I look at how posting content of minors online relinquishes control of their image & how that can end up in the wrong hands. I finish by diving into the laws in both the U.S. and Australia that do or do not protect children on social media.

RERUN: Why Gen Z Wants to be Anonymous Online14 Mar 202400:44:15

This week's episode is a re-edited rerun of a season 3 episode that is still very much relevant today where we explore why Gen Z pursues privacy online. I have added a new intro and shared some tea in the update section, so make sure to listen. 

In this episode, Jordyn Christensen and I look at why Gen Z is starting to seek more privacy and anonymity online. We explore the concept of the personal brand from a Gen Z lens, the new dangers youth face online, and several factors that have contributed to this generation choosing to be more private than their Millennial counterparts. We also look at some Gen Z creators who have recently taken a step back from social media (like Emma Chamberlain), and consider both the benefits and the risks of internet users becoming increasingly anonymous.

Nara Smith & The Internet's Obsession with (Fake) Tradwives07 Mar 202400:32:15

In this week's episode, I further explore the ideology behind the increasingly popular 'tradwife' lifestyle and discuss how this term is now being misused against mommy vloggers and creators who post domestic life content. I also dive into the questions around Nara Smith, TikToks' buzziest creator at the moment, to better understand if her content really is Mormon tradwife propaganda, or simply innocent lifestyle content with a focus on home and family life (and cooking for her kids from scratch).

Look What We Made Her Do: How Taylor Swift Built The Swiftie Cult29 Feb 202400:58:09

In this week's episode, I have my first co-host of season 5, Crystal Andrews! Crystal is a writer, author, and the founder & editor of feminist news publication, Zee Feed. But most importantly, Crystal is a Swiftie. Off the back of the Eras Tour in Sydney (which we both attended, twice), Crystal and I explore how Taylor Swift built such a culty fandom and why the Swifties feel so protective of their fave.

"Flop Influencers" & The Impact of Instant Viral Fame on Creator Longevity01 Feb 202400:25:16

Reserve your free spot here for the Infinite Scroll x Coach Love event in Sydney on February 15th: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/coach-love-fragrance-launch-discovery-tickets-807418178507 

I am so excited to be back in your ears every week! Bear with me as I figure out this new narrative, editing, and production style. It was important to me that I return with a more polished product for these solo deep dives and I hope you'll stick with me while I navigate this new norm.

This episode was short and sweet to help me figure out the process.

In this week's episode, I explore the concept of "flop influencers" and what career longevity realistically looks like for social media stars. I look at some examples like Brooklynne Webb, Axel Webb, Brittany Broski, Jason Nash, and Gabbie Hanna, and compare how TikTok fame differs from YouTube fame when it comes to "making it" as a career creator.
