The Internet is a bin fire. Let’s warm our hands!
Online trolling makes us all angrier and sadder.
Comedian Alice Fraser should know, after working as the social media moderator for a popular TV Show. Her job was to read and sort through hot streaming rivers of hate every day.
After a while, Alice had to do something positive or snap completely.
So alongside fellow comedians Cal Wilson and Sami Shah, she’s taking online trolling and turning it into lols. Together they turn the manure of the Internet into flowers of joy.
Along with analysing favourite troll posts, each week Alice, Cal and Sami do a deep dive into an online community that’s super niche, wild or strange.
Let us take your hand and guide you through the dark underbelly of human interaction. We’ll help you navigate the half-real landscapes of online, where people have totally lost perspective, where you can either scream or laugh. We choose screaming with laughter.
