The Sleepover Club: Daniel Howell On The Changing Online World

The Sleepover Club: Daniel Howell On The Changing Online World

This week on The Sleepover Club, we sat down with Daniel Howell to discuss how the internet has changed, for better and for worse, throughout his career. The author, presenter, and YouTuber tells us how he developed boundaries when it comes to sharing online, why his inner cynic always wins out in the end, and how growing up in online spaces effected his sense of self. We'll also be chatting about Daniel's progression from Youtube to publishing, and why he's putting mental health at the front of centre of his work.


Are we getting better or worse at holding people accountable online? And do we tend to be too harsh on people that over-share on the internet? Ione, Olivia, and Daniel will be discussing all this and much more.
