Host Emily Hessney Lynch is joined by author Kristen Felicetti to discuss the one year anniversary of her debut novel, Log Off, social media nostalgia, and what the future of social media holds. They reflect on past eras of social media like LiveJournal and Myspace and muse about what it would take for a new social media platform to take the world by storm. Kristen also shares one of her favorite parent tropes, insights on getting in touch with your teenage self when writing a teenage character, and reflections on book marketing.

In our inaugural episode of IT'S A LOT, host Emily Hessney Lynch chats with therapist Alaina Brubaker about the complexities of social media and parenthood. We discuss Alaina's daughter's fake podcast at age 4 and the conversations they had around online privacy and consent, how it feels weird to be called "mom" sometimes, why it's worth discussing the highs and lows of parenting, performative posting, the sensory overwhelm of parenting littles, the pressure of being 100% present for every moment of every day, and more.
