E347. How the Internet Killed Journalism - Meghan Daum

Meghan Daum sits down with Bridget to discuss her latest book, The Catastrophe Hour, and the conversation covers everything from aging on camera, to modern existential dread, to the death of quality journalism (RIP, actual editors), the rise of "femcel cope", and pro-natalist propaganda. They discuss Meghan’s decision not to have kids, the grim reality that AI is coming for everyone's job, how we've all become buskers begging for subscription dollars, whether you should get preventative Botox because of your kid, people who argue with bots, and those who are desperately trying to raise functional humans in a world that feels increasingly unhinged.
