Haven't Met Him Yet: A Parasocial Podcast

From Beatlemania to the Swifties, the parasocial relationship is a tale as old as time. And in the age of social media (not to mention global pandemics forcing us apart), it's easier than ever to establish a one-sided connection with someone you've never met before. This show is about the joys and terrors of dedicating part of one's self to fandom, hosted by your fave former fangirl.

    BEATLEMANIA (on all platforms): Fandom & Coming of Age with The Beatles

    We're back for Season 2 (on all platforms)! Fun, fun! Talking about a little-known indie band today, commonly referred to as The Beatles. Over the course of a few months in 1963, the 4 Liverpool boys went from relative obscurity to the most famous band in the world. And fans would stop at almost (seriously) nothing to get near them.

    Should Family Vlogs Exist? Parasocial Relationships With Other People's Children

    Family vloggers are not a new thing. Since the dawn of YouTube, people have been uploading edited versions of their daily life to the platform, often featuring (or starring) their kids. And yeah, much of the time, they make money from it. Some of the time, it's their entire livelihood. It's often entertaining and cute and excellent escapism (I can vouch for all of this!), but is it okay?

    YouTubers And Their Stalkers: Scratching The Surface Of YouTuber Fandom

    I could truly talk about this forever, but today, we're dipping toes into the world of YouTube creators and their stalkers. As a long-time (literal) subscriber to many YouTube creators, I can say that I've positively benefitted from their influence. But as usual, there's a down side to it. Chances are, every YouTuber out there (especially those making a full-time income from the platform) will have at least one pathological parasocial relationship to share. If you enjoy the pod, please rate, review, & subscribe! You can find me on IG @sarahsupergr8, too.
