Show Notes

In this “Kim on a Whim” segment, Kim spotlights a landmark Los Angeles trial accusing Meta and YouTube of intentionally addicting children through manipulative algorithms, echoing the tobacco lawsuits of the ’90s. She and Marc unpack the claims, discuss how social media triggers compulsive behavior, and question whether platforms should be held liable for mental health harms. They touch on Missouri’s own lawsuit against Meta, parental accountability, and how online engagement feeds corporate profit. The hour closes with light banter and upcoming guest teases.
