218: Trends, Algorithms and What It Means For Culture

Growth In Progress

Wedding bells are ringing and the countdown to Helli’s wedding is on! We talk marquee dramas, trad wives, money, wills and then we actually get into the topic, and we have to ask you, are you being very demure, very mindful? Have you had a brat summer or experimented with the latte makeup trend? You could be forgiven for all of these trends passing by you in the blink of the eye, or missing them entirely if you’re on a different algorithm to us. But that’s what we’re talking about today, does having a world dominated by algorithms, and a new trend bursting onto the scene every week mean that actually culture is being flattened? Does it make us all more connected or does it serve to fragment us even further? Take a listen and let us know your thoughts!
