Marginalized voices have always been at the forefront of the internet, yet our stories often go overlooked. Bridget Todd chronicles our experiences online, and the ways marginalized voices have shaped the internet from the very beginning. We need monuments to all of the identities that make being online what it is. So let’s build them.

Dear gxd pls get rid of that conair ad
Love you but please it’s so dumb.
Yes please!
I ❤️ Bridget Todd! But I have noticed the co hosts seem uneasy about podcasting? The halted way they speak kind of grinds it down to the point of it being slow and not contributing that much to the discussion.
the kind of thinker we should be listening to!
it’s such a treat to listen to Bridget’s thoughts. she’s always bringing great guests and new angles on not just the internet but culture at large. this show is on my rotation on the reg!
