WHO CAN YOU TRUST? How Technology Brought Us Together and Why It Could Drive Us Apart

Botsman explores what trust means in our digital society and explains why we should rethink what it is and how we use it. Narrator Caroline Baum engages listeners with a lively voice and British accent, which capture Botsman's friendly prose and background. However, Baum's voice has some raspiness that makes her sound significantly older than Botsman, an incongruity that can be distracting when Botsman talks about her own experiences. Despite this, Baum confidently guides listeners through Botman's prose, helping listeners understand facets of trust in their day-to-day lives they've before never considered as well as how cultures can better build trust in a digital age of misinformation, hacking, and internet trolls.
