This week on the Colin and Samir podcast, we are talking about Netflix's new film, The Social Dilemma.

0:08.1

Now, this film brings up a lot of interesting topics about social media, and I would urge you to watch the film before you listen to this podcast.

0:16.3

One, because I think it would just be more interesting if you've already watched the film.

0:19.8

And two, because we're definitely going to spoil the film for you if you listen to this podcast. So that is

0:25.0

your official spoiler alert. If you have not watched the film, just, you know, be aware of that

Of course, we both work in social media. And this movie just impacted me in a way that I don't think I saw coming. So we want to

1:17.1

hear your guys' thoughts. We want this to be a conversation. Of course, we're talking a lot

1:22.0

about this topic to each other. But there is a way for you guys to chime in. And that now is
