Perri Godsk & Sofia Ishaq of butterland are featured on this week's episode of Nicstalgia. The real question here is, if we know better, do we actually do better? When it comes to media literacy, nah, not really. In this episode, we answer questions like, when did we go from buying 13 different eyeshadow palettes to needing a 13-step skincare routine? Is reality well, reality, or is it just a ‘reality’ being sold to us by companies? (Spoiler alert: both. See: endless number of celeb skincare, makeup, and perfume lines.)
We deep dive on the Kardashians: Yay or nay? Do they – or any celebrities – have a responsibility to be role models? Do we even care anymore either way? Regardless, I think we can really all agree that season 1 of KUWTK (and all of its contrivances) reigns supreme. What are the implications of deep fakes and beauty filters? We explore the intersection of media literacy, social media marketing, influencer 1.0 culture, and big tech, so you’ll learn how to decipher online what’s real and what’s not.
