Working the algorithm with Kathryn Jezer-Morton

from Standard Issue Podcast Hosted by Standard Issue

Like it or loathe it, social media is a huge part of our everyday lives. That's the topic sociologist and journalist Kathryn Jezer-Morton grapples with in her new book, The Story of Your Life: Social Media, Storytelling and the Branding of Everyday Life, in which she attempts to uncover the deeper truths about how what we see and share on social media is rewriting the ways we make sense of our everyday experiences. Jen chats to Kathryn about the book, the concept of personal branding, what’s an overshare in millennial terms and how that compares to today’s youth, and whether three glasses of wine are actually likely to ruin anyone’s life for three days.
