Do you remember Vine? The six-second video app that sparked a cultural revolution, launched careers, and laid the foundation for today’s TikTok obsession? In Vine: Six Seconds That Changed the World, comic and host Benedict Townsend takes you deep inside the rise and sudden fall of the internet’s most chaotic, creative playground.
Featuring exclusive interviews with Vine creators, tech insiders, and even a co-founder, this investigative series uncovers the shocking truth behind Vine’s mysterious shutdown. Was it just a money issue—or something more sinister? Blackmail, betrayal, profit over art... the real story is wilder than any meme.
If you’re a fan of internet culture, digital history, or just want to know why your favourite app disappeared without a trace, this is the podcast for you.
