LinkedIn is... Cringe?

This fresh episode of A Bit of Culture discusses the nuances in tech that has changed the way people behave and interact. Joining Kam Raslan to unpack the nuances, in separate contexts, are Azmyl Yunor and Sheryll Paul. Kam starts the show by talking about the dangers of being misunderstood in texting, drawing from his own personal experience of being interpreted as being “too aggressive” in the way he writes his text messages. Sheryll follows that up by talking about how LinkedIn can get pretty “cringe”, especially when some people become overly positive and upbeat about their jobs on the platform. Last but not least,  Azmyl reflects on the way social media has changed the way artists behave, relying on the platform to share more about their personal lives, as opposed to focusing solely on their craft. Tune in for thoughtful and sometimes hilarious takes on these topics, and more!
