I was on a 50-foot crane and they would fly me into the side of a building.

From WHYY in Philadelphia, this is Fresh Air Weekend.

I'm Tanya Mosley in Los Angeles.

Today, New Yorker staff writer Gia Tolentino.

She coined the term Instagram face.

Seven years later, we talk about how current beauty standards are changing our relationship to reality.

It seems more explicitly anti-human right now than ever before.

There seemed to be something that's dovetailing with the age of AI.

Also, we talked with writer Lee Sung Jin.

He's the creator of the Netflix series Beef.

The second season is a story about class and blackmail at an exclusive country club.

Lee writes what he knows, so many of the show's storylines are pulled from his own life.

And that's after spending two decades in comedy writers' rooms, where he was often the only Asian person in the room.

That's coming up on Fresh Air Weekend.

I'm Brittany Luce.

It's called It's Been a Minute, and I love it, and I think you will too.
