THIS WEEK'S TOPIC: Social Media
Social media promised to connect us — and in some ways, it did. But somewhere along the way, the algorithm started deciding what we see, what we believe, and what we're outraged about. We curate our lives for strangers. We compare our insides to everyone else's outsides. And we can't put it down — even when we know exactly what it's doing to us.

So what is it actually giving us? And what is it quietly taking away? We're cracking open all of it over a cold one. Come with your takes. Come ready to have them challenged.

TO GET THE CONVERSATION GOING:

→ Has social media made you more connected — or just more performative?

→ Is the algorithm a mirror of who we are, or is it shaping who we become?

→ Do you present a version of yourself online that you actually believe in?

→ What has social media done to friendship, dating, and political conversation?

→ Could you delete it all tomorrow — and if not, what does that say?
