Get Off My Internets

from Imperfect Strangers · host Imperfect Strangers

We are all hanging by a thread here. Amanda and I wanted to wait until after we survived Election Day to bring you a timely episode about (possibly) the end of the world so please enjoy these cutting room scraps. On this raggedy shit, we talk shit about Instagram influencers because we’re mad we don’t have that douche je ne sais quoi that keeps them paid. We also get nostalgic about old school blogs in the Livejournal, pre-monetized era. Yes, we know we can always STFU but who wants to listen to a silent podcast? Want to support Amanda and Melissa, the strangers behind your favorite new podcast? Join our Patreon! It’s AMAZING if we do say so ourselves (and we do). There you’ll find bonus content, episodes that never made air, IG Monday Night Lives you may have missed, a newsletter and so much more. You can join the club here! You can also support the show by buying your very own Imperfect Strangers merch! We have a very cool website! Go there now! We have a PRIVATE Facebook Group too. The Imperfect Strangers Podcast theme song is written and performed by Justin Beck. All season two artwork is by Lisa Venturella. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/imperfectstrangers/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/imperfectstrangers/support

Join Dylan as he connects people who have clashed online – from old friends to complete strangers — to explore why we believe what we believe, how we relate to each other on the internet, and just what a phone call can accomplish. Don’t be fooled by the title! It’s actually a loving show that fosters unlikely connections in an age of increasing digital isolation. Whether Dylan is speaking with someone who wrote him a negative comment or is moderating a call between two strangers at odds, the results are often surprising, usually heartwarming, and always compelling.
