This week Jo Piazza is here, and if you don't know her, you need to!! I discovered her podcast, Under the Influence last year, and was drawn in by the way she exposes social media bullshit in the same way I call out the fitness industry. She introduced me to mind blowing stories about tradwives, the wellness to right wing conspiracy theory pipeline, and all the ways social media makes women feel like garbage.
My hope is that it will help you become a more critical consumer of social media and avoid going down conspiracy theory rabbit holes the next time you're just looking for a banana bread recipe.
Jo Piazza is the international bestselling author of The Sicilian Inheritance and twelve other books. She is also the creator of the wildly popular Under the Influence podcast. She lives in Philly with her husband and three feral children.
On this episode we talk about:
- The work Jo is doing and who she is as a whole human (because that matters too!)
- What exactly a "tradwife" is, in case you didn't know.
- The wellness to right-wing conspiracy theory pipeline, and the path that people typically follow to get there.
- How content like this can suck women into believing disinformation that can cause them to act/vote against their own best interests.
- Red flags to watch out for when you want to make sure you don't get scammed into weird shit on the internet.
- How the broken U.S. medical system and lack of support for women and moms can cause us to turn to internet grifters for advice.
- How trad-wife and wellness content makes us feel about ourselves as regular ass women in the world.
