A thought part two
Person two: Wow, my friend told me that my vlog on my journey after job loss, and all the other ones out there, really lack in the departments of expertise and scalability. Not sure what scalability means...but I don't like the sound of it. Feel disenchanted.
A Thought
Person One: Its difficult for me that some academic named Nick Couldry suggested that digital stories might be "an isolated phenomenon, cut off from the wider distribution of social and cultural authority and respect".

Joblessness and digital stories enter the mainstream
Storyteller: Hmmm, maybe this could be a way to combat the isolation of digital stories? These interviews read an awful lot like how I felt when I was laid off.
