Tonight on Beyond The Noise, Republic Sentinel and YankeeFree are talking about third places, the everyday gathering spots outside of home and work where people used to build friendships, community, conversation, and local culture. From diners, bars, coffee shops, barber shops, clubs, churches, music venues, VFW halls, parks, and neighborhood hangouts, we’re asking a bigger question: where did everybody go? Did technology, social media, rising costs, changing work schedules, distrust, politics, and the loss of local culture slowly kill the places where people actually meet face to face? This is a perfect chat-driven BTN conversation, so jump in and tell us: What was your third place? Do you still have one? And what happens to a society when people stop gathering in real life? All of the places you can find BTN content: https://streemrz.com/u/btn/ BTN is also on VPZone and Pilled. Want to get in touch with the BTN Crew?
