  Put your thoughts into the mixEpisode 1: The Rural Town Divide, Social Media, Charlotte’s screen time, farming life & the next generationUnfiltered. Unexpected. Unapologetically honest….some might say blunt. Welcome to the very first episode of The Wilson & Ashley Podcast hosted by Charlotte Ashley and Rebecca Wilson. We’d like to think that we are strong, no-nonsense farming women with deep roots in the countryside and a passion for tackling big issues.  Recording from our unique mobile podcast studio, we are also on YouTube so if you fancy watching the whole thing unfold, jump on over and witness the carnage.In this debut we dive straight into the growing rural-urban divide, using a thought provoking video by shepherdess Emma Grey from the Isle of Bute as our starting point. We feel it demonstrates perfectly the reason for us starting a podcast.We explore how social media portrays farming life, the misconceptions it can create, and how digital culture is reshaping even the most remote communities. Prompted by Rebecca watching the super hit Netflix show, Adolescence, the conversation turns to children, mobile phones, and the internet. Are we losing the real-world connection that children once had? Is Charlotte just a terrible parent and a huge hypocrite? Let us know your thoughts on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube. If you’ve got a story, a strong opinion, or a take of your own… Slide into the DMs or drop us a voice note — we want your thoughts in the mix!
