Troll podcast

Post by SonomaCat » Mon Jan 26, 2015 3:30 pm

The whole concept of internet trolls (and their presumably strange motivations for attacking people the way they do) is probably something we've all thought a bit about. This podcast from This American Life has a really interesting segment about a woman who ends up talking to (and becoming friendly with) her troll after he confesses to some pretty horrible things.

It's Act One.
