Description

In this episode, we discuss a controversial and almost universally relatable subject - social media. Almost everyone engages with some form of social media; it hardly feels optional now. It is all-pervasive in society, and unfortunately, it is not harmless. We cover social media's negative effects: low self-esteem, poor social skills and inhibited connection with both ourselves and others. We also talk about how social media is designed to be addictive in the interests of maximising profits, which limits its potential benefits.
