Ep 8: Are We Actually Friends… or Just Parasocial?

from This Might Be A Lot · host ThisMightBeALot

Ever feel like you know a celebrity, creator, or even your favorite podcasters (👀) even though you’ve never met? That’s the world of parasocial relationships—those one-sided bonds we form with people on our screens. In this episode, we unpack why they happen, how they can be comforting and a little complicated, and what it says about how we connect in today’s culture.
