    Who We Are - with Nushy Rose

    We interrupt your regular programming to bring you - THE EGGSHELLS INTERVIEWS. In these full interviews with our guests, expect excellent insights amid rambling chat, as together we explore how to disagree better. We're sharing our guest's words in context so that you can delve deeper into a conversation of your choice with an Eggshells' guest you love. Nushy Rose is currently Senior Digital Content Manager at Save the Children, and was previously Managing Editor of opinions platform Parlia, where she investigated why we think what we think using experimental multiplatform content. She was on NBCUniversal's prestigious Future Leaders Programme, and spent 2 years at Sky writing and producing viral conspiracy theory videos. https://www.theeggshellspodcast.com/team-1/nushy-rose Nushy has featured heavily in recent Eggshells episodes (Identity x3, Power & Privilege and Social Media) so it's likely you have already heard a lot of the content of our conversation. Good to hear the tales in context though (along with our witty banter)! This episode was recorded remotely on 4th May 2021. There’s quite a lot in this conversation that dates it (although “most people are mad at this conservative government” has sure stood the test of time)!

    Social Media - Arguing: fun or futile?

    Today we talk about disagreeing on social media. We couldn't not cover it right? It's where all the bile and emotions live. But in this episode, Hannah and Lizzie find reasons for serious optimism. *Since the recording of this episode Twitter has been bought by Elon Musk. We touch on Twitter and whether or not it has a responsibility to monitor or better regulate “free speech”.
