Today Olivia and Jessie talk about the surreality of #tradwives on social media. They have a massive following, but the audiences are there for as many different reasons as we can imagine--to stare, to envy, to learn, to be infuriated, to be sad, to look at beauty, to feel human, to feel inhuman. We talk about @ballerinafarm (on Instagram and TikTok) and Nara Smith (@naraazizasmith on TikTok). We also get into the Kamala Harris of it all, and yes, Jessie brings it back to rhetoric (all humanity is centered around stories, and stories are some of the best rhetorical means!).
Jessie briefly discusses one of the most important books she ever read, and it's MORE RELEVANT THAN EVER: Notes on a Foreign Country: An American Abroad in a Post-American World by Suzy Hansen
