Why do we rewatch the same TV, movies and content?

The Death of the Blog Era

I’m Amy, a media enthusiast, writer and late-night thinker. I’ve always had an obsession with TV, radio, random social history facts and ideas; those programs that aired on a random Wednesday November night in the 90’s and somehow become cult classics, artists who leave us craving more music, ideas that pop into your mind just as you’re falling asleep and radio hosts who feel like old friends. Cold Supper is where I dig into pop culture, nostalgia, and creativity, exploring everything from the TV that raised us to the fear of leaving projects unfinished, and the ideas that keep you up at night. Expect deep dives, casual chats, and a lot of thoughts of the past and the future. In this episode we reminisce about the blogging era, at its peak, the lows and the resurgence of social networking sites trying to replicate blogging. Remembering some forgotten beloved blogging trends, some of 2010’s internet famous people before the term influencer was coined and know my thoughts on the current climate of online sharing.
