Social Media Ep: Performative Friendships, Wandering Eyes and the Reality of Influencing

What’s up thoughties? Our filming days have been SO CHAOTIC lately but they’ve absolutely been the most fun to film. This week we’re talking about our opinions on social media, is it actually that deep or is it not?

We discuss everything from the pursuit of art on the internet, negative sides of being online, performative friendships and why Sowon and Sam could never be full time influencers (tldr: we’re lazy sometimes ok). Sam discusses for the first time ever, her first time going viral and why the internet can be a scary place sometimes. While Sowon reflects on the importance of making an idea come to life at the right time.

We also talk about how social media influences dating, why it’s a trigger for some relationships and how to tell if the guy you’re seeing has a wandering eye. Stay until the second half of the episode to hear us rant about friendship icks we have both on and offline and why you shouldn’t idolize people you think are cool on the internet.

There’s a lottt of hot takes in this episode but we hope you can be open-minded and enjoy the discourse in this episode with us.
