I watch YouTube so you don’t have to.

And I have so much to share about Kids Media Literacy that normally, I post on Facebook, Instagram, or BlueSky. This Patreon is my attempt to collect my best work in one place for you. Read my recent posts here!

Please join our readership community at any tier (including free)!

You get access to:

• 
  

  EARLY access to upcoming podcasts on influencer marketing, headlines, News Literacy, Media History, Civics — what do you need?

  See a selection here.
  
• 
  

  EXTENDED: Like dishing about culture and nostalgia? You get full videos and transcripts of our OutThink the Classics podcast guests and their extensive commentary! Previous podcast topics include the Wicked Witch of the West, Loki, The Boy and the Heron (Miyazaki), Roald Dahl, Dr. Seuss, Bandit Heeler, and more.

  
  
• 
  

  EXCLUSIVE: direct access to request reviews or advice around YouTube, Kids media, video games…..

  
  

This is our community to build, so I’m happy to answer your questions about any of this vast media landscape.

If you can donate something monthly, I will be very grateful. Your donation through 2025 helps me secure the support team I need for the upcoming Interactive PLAY, building my website to be accessible to all, and commission writers who are not me to share their lived experiences.

Every single dollar helps me preserve the time to research and write more for your family! As we grow, I can expand to hire more writers, build and maintain our accessible features, and grow our readership so more families understood the 2025+ online cultural playground.

Your presence in this community is just as important as a donation, however, so all posts will be available to all tiers. I would love for Patreon to replace my Facebook page, eventually Instagram, and (very disparate) newsletter so that no matter where you live online, your family will have access to this helpful info. Patrons may receive discounts or early admission to events, but everyone can read all of the posts.

What do you want to know about YouTubers, video games, influencer marketing, new social media, and family vlogging laws?……please ask.

Thanks!
