Veronica Belmont is an Internet superstar and San Francisco resident. She also just got a tattoo. We talk to Veronica about everything San Francisco - from scooters to philanthropy to who our benevolent dictator should be.


Veronica is a true Internet native. She was podcasting before it was a thing, and she was one of the first social media superstars. We talk to Veronica about virtual connections vs. 'real' connections and if it's even possible to draw a distinction anymore. What's it like to make friends online, and meet someone in real life after years? Are those relationships any less authentic?


We talk about a wide variety of civic issues, including the amount of money big tech has. And everyone's favorite discussion - the 'scooter' problem, and what we should do with them. Veronica spends some time talking about the mayoral race (this was recorded just prior to the mayoral election), and gives her vote as to who would could fix San Francisco.


We hear about Veronica's new tattoo, and her favorite social media follows. Enjoy this lighthearted episode of 'This is Your Life'!
