episode description

In this episode of Outpost, we head to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and to Lima, Peru as we see how the power of the internet shapes culture, and even politics. Social media superstar Rudy Mancuso takes us to Brazil to meet the founders of the comedy troupe, Porta dos Fundos, whose videos have made them one of the most popular YouTube channels in the world, as they satirize and demolish many aspects of mainstream Brazilian society and politics. Gabriel Leigh then takes us to Lima, Peru to meet a young woman – who rose to YouTube fame with a song about breastfeeding, made when she was only eight years old – struggling now to define herself and a hopeful career as a pop musician, as she moves into adulthood.
