Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with a new phenomenon among social networks - Clubhouse. The application experienced its rise and increased user interest at the turn of the years 2020/2021. The paper provides basic information about this social network and a short research that represents the view of students of mass media communication on functioning. It discusses their view that this new social network can increase their media competencies and skills but it also reflects a demonstrable decline in interest from young users. Whether the Clubhouse manages to complete the “revolution” it has begun or not, we can say with certainty that as we refer to the pandemic period as the period of silence and loneliness we all sought to get through, we will remember the Clubhouse as a flash that tore us out of the fear and silence and allowed us to talk. Not just about the pandemic, but everything we ever wanted to talk about with people who, like us, sat at home alone and finally found a mate in clubhouse.
