On this week's episode of Why'd You Push That Button?, the last in our Death Online series, Kaitlyn and I chat about celebrity death Twitter, or the phenomenon where a celebrity's death consumes all of Twitter. We ask whether sharing a link on Twitter can ever be an authentic way of mourning someone famous and whether that even matters.

Listen to the show below! And I promise not to focus on death content next week :)
