#61 | TikTok, Dave Chappelle + Courage or Cringe

In our Deep Dive today we touch on a number of related subjects from TikTok’s first-ever congressional hearing, to Dave Chappelle’s latest announcement, to new consumer markets fueled by Cancel Culture.

And in our Courage or Cringe segment! Trump’s new social platform, Nike gets called out, and Coke makes noise in gaming.

  • Is a new social platform a beacon for freedom from censorship or is it a partisan project that gives our former president his megaphone back?
  • Is a global footwear company being fairly called out for hypocrisy over labor practices in China OR is an athlete entangling a major company into his pet cause for additional attention?
  • And finally… Did the world’s most iconic beverage launch an aspirational effort to address a global problem, or have they increased their irrelevance among a genZ audience they can ill afford to lose?
