There’s No Easy Way to Log Off

On today’s episode, Rachelle and Madison are joined by Buzzfeed’s
Scaachi Koul to discuss her recent piece, “Why Bo Burnham, Jenna
Marbles, and Shane Dawson All Logged Off.” They talk about the
cesspool that is YouTube fandom, how precisely Bo Burnham
articulates the problems of constant internet consumption, and the
three ways logging off may be possible: deleting your content,
apologizing a lot, and getting a Netflix special. Plus, a short
explanation of the online phrase touch some grass. Podcast
