Under the Influencers ft. Taylor Lorenz and Elena Cresci

Hey Trash Fam - it's a new week and therefore a new episode.

The gang (Riley @raaleh, Milo @milo_edwards, Hussein @HKesvani, and Elena Cresci @elenacresci) talks about about our progress through no pee january, the Spectator's list of reasons to be cheerful (they're dumb), the plan to replace the border force with "Dad's Waffen SS," and Toby Young's Defense of Toby Young by Toby Young.

Taylor Lorenz (@TaylorLorenz), who covers technology and culture at the Daily Beast, joins us in the latter half ot the ep to give us an anthropological explanation of the YouTube teens - who they are, what they hell are they thinking, and what's next for them. (Spoiler alert - it's all weird and hyperreal).

Here's the link for our live show on the 9th of January:
