Episode 62: CONSUMING MEDIA IN THE TIME OF CORONA With Parenty Editor Farrah Saville

Loading player...
Hey Motherlovers! Two episodes, one week. How lucky are you!?

So lucky that, if you're a local listener, you've got another 21 days to catch up on all things TGE :-D #hellolockdownextension

Sorry, too soon?

In this latest episode of The Great Equalizer we get down and dirty with Parenty editor Farrah Saville about media consumption in the time of corona.

You've probably heard it all, right? Kooky right-wingers preaching the end of the world as we know it; "reputable" virologists spewing fake news in an "uber profesh" 15-minute voice note; a dude with an earbud shoved up his nose spouting his opinion as the gospel... And let's not forget to mention how many times we've considered exiting overactive family WhatsApp groups.

It's all been a bit much... So how do we navigate the noise without switching off from life online altogether? And, probably more importantly, if you've got kids who are old enough to consume media, what's the best way to approach these murky waters?

Tune in to get some sage advice from a seasoned media professional.
