Did you know YouTube was originally a dating app?! I didn’t know either but I learned that in Taylor Lorenz’s new book ‘Extremely Online’. 

Taylor Lorenz is a journalist who has written some of the most viral stories about the internet on New York Times, Washington Post, The Atlantic and more. You can learn more about her and her stories here.

A few topics that Talyor and I discuss in this episode are:

1. How Lonelygirl15 changed the internet forever

2. Why ‘industry plants’ are not actually a real thing 

3. The origins of YouTube & the first VidCon convention

4. The genius of Logan & Jake Paul (for better or for worse)

5. Why does YouTube promote problematic people like Colleen Ballinger (and now Ruby Franke)?

6. The era of Emma Chamberlain, Tana Mongeau & TanaCon

7. Taylor Lorenz coverage of Hype House (Charli D'Amelio, Addison Rae, etc)

8. The genius of Famous Birthdays
