How Do You Survive Social Media? (with Veronica Roth)

May 21, 2026 · 1 h 13 min

Show notes

Victoria and guest Veronica Roth discuss how they’ve survived the evolution of social media from the fun of unfiltered chatting on Twitter to the algorithmic nightmare we now found ourselves in. Also they talk about the myriad and complicated ways a book becomes a New York Times Bestseller and if romantasy and fairytales are the only things people want. Victoria is scribbling on some new ideas, and Veronica wants internet forums back!
