Social Media - Banned!

Last year, Australia introduced a law banning certain social media platforms for children under the age of 16 - the first of its kind in the world.

This week, our hosts move the conversation offline and into real life, pondering the effects of social media and how the Bible can guide us in how to use it.

Professor Andrew Campbell, Chair of the Cyberpsychology Research Group at the University of Sydney, then joins the show to discuss the proposed ban and the potential benefits of social media.

Finally, Michael and Megan discuss appropriations of the 19th-century novel Vanity Fair and wonder how it might have anticipated some of the complexities of social media - two centuries ahead of time!
