Welcome to Close All Tabs, a special KQED podcast series exploring the intersection of internet culture and politics.

We’ll revisit iconic moments like “the Dean scream” and “Pokemon Go to the polls,” examine how memes became a legitimate political force, and discuss why Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are turning to podcasters and streamers to reach voters.
