Originally released June 2020

We chase small joys—a new 12‑string and a backyard putting green—then tackle the hard question of who should moderate speech online when bots, labels, and politics collide. Practical habits for calm meet clear-eyed talk on Section 230, disinformation, and trust.

• buying a 12‑string and picking a practical putting green
• Section 230 basics and platform liability
• Twitter labels, Facebook state‑media tags, bot studies
• who moderates speech and what authority exists
• distrust of big tech versus distrust of government
• friendship friction over protests and how to listen
• coping tactics: yoga, yard work, walks, cooking
• VR and 3D scanning as evidence tools
• Hedy Lamarr’s frequency hopping legacy
• show updates: YouTube workflow, directories, Patreon

Let us know what your opinion is about the social media conundrum these days and the executive order from President Trump regarding Section 230 and the social media platform.

Give us a call and drop a three-minute or less voicemail message at 541-314-4271.
