Wake Up Podcast: Episode 13 - Influencers

Welcome to episode 13 of the Wake Up Podcast! Today we talk about Influencers, youtube dramas, cancel culture, apology videos, and more. We dive deep into the recent drama from the FRENEMIES podcast, involving Trisha Paytas and the H3H3 team. We ask how much of these dramas and real and how much is constructed for the clout and views. We also discuss our responsibility as an audience, in choosing what to believe and who to give a platform to. What are your thoughts regarding this topic? Do you keep up to date with youtube drama? Do you believe in cancel culture? Let us know in the comments! In our podcasts, we want to dedicate a small portion at the end of our episode to raise awareness of an issue or support a business/idea. This week, in light of the recent death of Brandon Benard - A man who was recently put to death by the death sentence in America, we wanted to bring awareness to The Marshall Project. The Marshall Project is a nonprofit news organisation that seeks to create and sustain a sense of national urgency about the U.S. criminal justice system. Please check out their website to learn more about the corruption of the US justice system and show support to ensure lives aren’t lost unnecessarily to the death penalty.
