Episode Synopsis

Hi y'all! I am so thrilled and grateful to be here and to have you here. In today’s episode, I lean a bit into the pop culture conversation surrounding Taylor Swift's latest album, sharing my thoughts but more so engaging in a deeper reflection of celebrity obsession and worship and how either adoration or outrage makes wealthy people even wealthier. This dynamic is further fuelled and strengthened by the algorithm-based media landscape in which we all exist now.I hope you enjoy listening. Don't forget to subscribe, rate, and share.
