Two social media content moderators struggle at work. He’s her manager. She’s his new trainee. How long can they stay sane when their job is to confront the worst possible content online? How far will they go to win a promotion and escape their daily grind?

Adapted from the play by Kevin Kautzman, this podcast is presented by Crying Hill Media with Spooky Action Theater. It features the voice talent of Amanda Forstrom and Robert Bowen Smith.
