ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
In this podcast I talk with invited experts about the different shapes and forms in which we engage with affection and intimacy through media platforms and technology, such as social media (like Instagram or Facebook, or Tinder), novels, television series, or video games to voice assistants like Alexa or the Google Assistant.
