Close All Tabs

Ever wonder where the internet stops and IRL begins? Close All Tabs breaks down how digital culture shapes our world through thoughtful insights and irreverent humor. From internet trends to AI slop to the politics of memes, Close All Tabs covers it all. How will AI change our jobs and lives? Is the government watching what I post? Is there life beyond TikTok? Host Morgan Sung pulls from experts, the audience, and history to add context to the trends and depth to the memes. And she’ll wrestle with as many browser tabs as it takes to explain the cultural moment we’re all collectively living. Morgan Sung is a tech journalist whose work covers the range of absurdity and brilliance that is the internet. Her beat has evolved into an exploration of social platforms and how they shape real-world culture. She has written for TechCrunch, NBC News, Mashable, BuzzFeed News and more. We love listening to shows about technology and culture like Power User with Taylor Lorenz, ICYMI, Wow If True, Hard Fork, There Are No Girls On the Internet, Endless Thread, Uncanny Valley from Wired, It’s Been a Minute, and You’re Wrong About. If you like them too, then trust us–you’ll like Close All Tabs.

Thought provoking

This podcast is thought provoking and makes me think about issues that I didn’t realize was an issue. The recent episode on what if the internet archive goes dark really made me go hmm. I’ve learned so much in each episode about the power of technology as a force for good but it also opens the tab and examines the unintended consequences of technology.
Binged every ep - please make more!

I’ve already learned so much from them. Thank you for making tech and politics transparent and digestible. Please don’t stop this pod! We need a deep dive on much more, I particularly want to know about the tech that runs our ballot machines - who makes these softwares, how are they secured, and how do we know we can trust them?
So special
