Dr. Samantha Marsh: A Conversation On The Risks Of Social Media.
I talked with Dr. Samantha Marsh from the University of Auckland. We discussed the B416 campaign, which advocates for the New Zealand government to enact legislation requiring social media agencies to implement age verification on their platforms. We discussed her research, social media, its risks and harms for young people, and what she believes needs to be done to address it.
Her research focuses on child and youth health and well-being and how stressful home environments and the parent-child relationship can impact health-related decisions, particularly in the context of risk and uncertainty. In 2023, Samantha joined the Department of General Practice and Primary Health Care, where she works closely with the Immunisation Advisory Centre (IMAC). Samanth also undertakes research and advocates for the safe use of technology in youth, focusing on the impact of social media on youth mental health.

Some Of My Favourite People. Season 4, EP 2. Ada, Different Voice Initiative.
Ada is a Youtuber, social commentator and content creator based in the U.K focused on race and racism. She started the project not seeing a more diverse range of thought presented when it comes to talking about social and political issues, so a different voice was created.
We had a cool conversation about Ada's views and opinions. We got into acknowledging looking at the balance between personal responsibility and social causatives of disparate outcomes, going against the grain of popular ideas, and giving people hope and a reason to be optimistic.
