We have to ask... are you on the app Clubhouse yet?! If not, no worries, we gotchu with our own commentary where we share our experiences so far on Clubhouse. If you haven't heard of Clubhouse, it’s an audio-based social network where people can spontaneously jump into voice chat rooms together without ever needing to show their face. It’s also currently invite only and iOS only, which has interesting implications for who is even able to be on the app and shape the culture of these audio-only conversations.
Joining us is Michelle Chan, the person who actually gave Sophia her invite into Clubhouse! In this episode you'll get to hear about:
⟡ Michelle's first venture into Clubhouse and her first impressions
⟡ What she's learned about moderating Clubhouse rooms
⟡ Our thoughts on the implications of the exclusivity of Clubhouse
⟡ How an unlimited character limit for our bios has pushed us to be mindful of how we introduce ourselves
⟡ The current challenges of navigating Clubhouse with such a spontaneous culture and limited feature set
If you're intrigued by Clubhouse and are able to get on the app, connect with us! We'd love to interact with you all on there - find us at @michellechan, @daeunkim, and @sophiasun.
