Episode 136: The Never-Ending Scroll & Elvis
We've all been there...spending hours online when we've intended to jump on, get the info we needed, and then to get back to “real life." The Plugged In team discusses why we get so wrapped up in our phones and why it's important to model healthy media habits for our children. Adam Holz then speaks with Bob Hoose about the new Baz Luhrmann biopic, Elvis.
