Ep 26 Technology and children
Hello hello hello! Welcome back to another chit chat! Today we talk about technology, and whether we think it's harmful or helpful to the next generation. We could have probably made a 3-part series on this topic because we have soooo much to say, but we tried to keep it concise. The episode covers topics like gaming, socialisation, the addictive component of technology and when technology can be beneficial for learning.

Ep 20 Lying and the Problem with Trigger Warnings
Hello hello hellooooo, welcome back! This ep begins with a chat around our thoughts on trigger warnings, and how they have gotten out of hand, especially on social media platforms. Specificallty, we reference this article, which explores the topic much more eloquently than we managed on the Poddy. Then, we discuss all things lying. When is it okay, if ever? Why little white lies can also be problematic, why it's sometimes a grey area, and why telling the truth should always be the goal.
