Episode description
The app NextDoor creates online communities based on user postal codes. When roleplayer “Connor” stumbles across an imaginary town (with an unassigned postal code), he finds what he’s been missing in real life: a close family that supports and accepts him. But despite the community’s willingness to stay hyper positive, real world disorder creeps in and threatens the boundaries of this fragile, make-believe world.
