S&S’s second social hour explores what we are watching and/or reading these days and attempts to tease out the ‘whys.’ Other than the persistently grim march of the news, what kinds of media and narratives have we been drawn to lately? Whether it’s escapist fantasies or pandemic-themed movies, are we looking for solace, distraction, frisson, or even models for how to navigate crisis? Are there certain genres and texts we find ourselves avoiding altogether and others that we can’t help but binge in one sitting? Join us as we talk to each other about the media we are paying attention to, as well as try to understand our individual and collective motivations for doing so. With co-hosts Linda Liu and Joe Ramsey.
