In this episode Erwin and JV talk the Olympics, the world in the cloud, and thoughts of the creative economy.

Stay safe everyone.

In this episode, Erwin and JV dive back into the rhythm of culture. We go into drinking habits formed during the pandemic, lessons about risk mitigation and prevention we learned from the pandemic, big Disney moves, the future of conventions, hot tub streamers?? and the future of creative digital culture.

Erwin and JV return to normalcy, mask-free podcasting about pop culture. We discuss Lil Nas X's strange controversy over his Nike shoe, Chillhop Girl, Video games, the Streaming Multiverse and finally... where does street fashion go from here?

We would love to hear from you.

Erwin and JV try to break down an NFT in understandable terms and look at higher education. One of the questions we address is.  "What is higher ed for?" With new certifications and big companies (such as Tesla recruiting and training people out of high school), are there alternatives to upward mobility? JV thinks the "free college" recruit should go to child care, free Pre-K, and improving public schools.

Enjoy the episode

(This was recorded before the Super Bowl) 

We follow up on the last episode regarding stonks.  What went wrong, what did we find out? And essentially... does it really even matter?  We touch a bit on the next round of stimulus, and finally... we get back into culture.

We catch up on conspiracy theories, the changing of sports, and Erwin and JV talk money... again. But this time, it's about how they invest (speak to an actual finance advisor, please). We probably should go to Wu-Tang Finances and taking some GZA advice on diversifying our bonds.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.  Can we ctrl-z 2020?  But it wasn't all that bad though. I think 2020 was a year people's perspective and priorities switch. Forward to 2021.

It's Hot COVID Summer Time. Are we tired of hearing "the new normal" yet? 

Erwin and JV talk about the change in flex culture and the full integration of digital spaces into our daily lives... unless you have lived on the internet like JV.  We debate if Home Snaps are a thing or we going to forever run the top half zoom fashion culture. JV thinks Disney+ and the Mulan rental might be on to something...

Well... We just went through two big economic depressions.  What does this mean going forward?  Are the systems and norms going to change going forward?  Or is the return to normalcy the way to go?  Spoiler alert.. 'going back' is not the answer.

First off, there are many vital voices that demand your attention and awareness. Educate and inform yourself about what is going on during this time of civil frustration and unrest.

This episode recorded before the riots started, and if you wanted to take a  break from the chaos, Erwin and JV hope that this episode can help you step away from what's going on for a small period of time.  We thank you for listening, stay alive, and most importantly, stay healthy. 

Remember that there is a virus still out there that does not care about what's going on.
