S3 | SS13: Blue Check Breakdown

To introduce this week’s topic, I’d like to read you all a quote I think sums up where we’re headed in this episode:

“Since Elon Musk took over Twitter, it's been nothing but a volatile rollercoaster of decline and implosion—and it hasn't even been a month.” (Lucas Ropek, Gizmodo)

Honestly, with all the stress and tension of the midterms and economy talk… we’re overdue for some comic relief. So we’re going to take a moment to revel in the deconstruction of the Twitterverse at the hands of Mr. Musk.
