Stop The Scroll with Brianna Doe
Every internet rabbit hole, every comfort rewatch, every comment section that becomes its own ecosystem… there’s a reason it works on us. Stop the Scroll is the show that figures out what that reason is.
Each episode pulls apart the cultural mechanics of how we behave online: why we share what we share, why platforms shape us in ways we don't notice, and what the creator economy reveals about how we consume, connect, and engage.
Through convos with people who have rare visibility into how the internet actually operates, we dig into why we do what we do online — instead of just scrolling through it.
