What a fantastic interview. I only worry for you because I can't imagine 30% of any group of people hating you! We must push our politicians to make the algorithms transparent and maybe it's time for good old fashioned PSAs about the algorithms. Then maybe enough people wake up from hate scrolling and go be with people again. Thank you for all you do.
Thanks Tara & Imran Great pod cast. I'm just an elderly old fart who has no idea as to what algorithms are all about. All I know as a critical thinking, I want to the actual cold hard truths. As far a you go Tara you are a very beautiful , vibrant young lady who wants to get the truth out into the ozone and that is why I subscribe to independent medial where the hosts are not carrying the water for some despot. You can be you and there are no roadblocks. You are beholden to no one but the subscribers. When I listen to Pete Hegseth I understand I an listening to a White Supremacist Christian Nationalist. With statements like "we will rain hell fire and damnation from the heavens above " "Give no quarter or mercy' "forget the rules of engagement' He is a dangerous man but I don't buy his bullshit. When they talk about fake news I immediately think about the present administration.
Tara Palmeri you simply must figure a way to defeat this algorithm. These are the glory days of the political podcast, figures from the right and left sitting down together regularly for hours at a time (and getting along), cable and network news mostly dropping the ball on Epstein and The Excursion with YouTube picking up the slack, cash piling up in stacks. I’ll be honest with you, and I’ve mentioned this before - you can go off and learn of all sorts of tips and tricks to accomplish this but in my opinion the Occam’s razor answer here is to finally secure that second (identical and symmetrically positioned) tree.
So obviously what I’ve said here is just a touch unserious but for real - probably what will happen one day is that you will run into a story so compelling that it’ll draw all eyes to you. Your job will then be to keep them there. You’re persistent and you work hard, good luck tends to love people like that 🍀.
Gen X here carefully choosing independent journalism exclusively on Substack. I give no mind about who judges me for this. Some I subscribe link in to other platforms to see video originating elsewhere. Im ok with that as long as it's my trusted source 'over there'. There wasn't a cellphone in my hand when I was growing up. I was 35 before internet and algorithms came on the scene. I have a conscience and have discernment from critical thinking skills and experience. I find you reputable and tenacious. I trust you. You have integrity. I don't have a "following" online. I do, however have individuals who listen to me and express their gratitude for what I help them learn. That matters.
Keep up what you do. You have my respect and a paid subscription.

YES and communities can only be built locally, one trusted person at a time. We need both the BBC (British Broadcassting Network) and BBBC (Building Beloved Communities).

Great Substack, Tara. I always learn something from you. Thank you.
Love it Tara. Great job. This is something that we need to talk about. And needs to be talked about. It’s a very important issue.
