Summary

What starts with watching Nara Smith make bubblegum from scratch can lead you down a dangerous algorithmic rabbit hole. In this episode, we explore how tradwife influencers romanticize 1950s domesticity, why their content is so addictive, and how TikTok's algorithm connects tradwife videos to far-right conspiracy theories and pronatalist movements. Spoiler alert: the gleaming kitchens and perfect hair aren't as innocent as they seem.
