Meet Justin, AKA: Kodak! Levi's long time business partner and best friend, Justin, joins us as our official producer. The girls (and everyone else) were tired of the button presses, so we brought in a professional. Kodak has been in the music/audio industry for years so we knew he'd be the perfect fit for the job.
In this episode we kick things off with Dogecoin. This crypto currency has been dominating the news, headlines, and our wallets. Dogecoin was created by IBM software engineer Billy Markus from Portland, Oregon and Adobe software engineer Jackson Palmer, who set out to create a peer-to-peer digital currency that could reach a broader demographic than Bitcoin. In addition, they wanted to distance it from the controversial history of other coins. Dogecoin was officially launched on December 6, 2013, and within the first 30 days there were over a million visitors to Dogecoin.com
And of course, Justin Bieber has dreadlocks, AGAIN. The 27-year-old "Peaches" singer debuted locs on Instagram Sunday , sharing several pictures of his controversial new hairstyle that elicited both calls of racial insensitivity and praise amongst peers. "Swags crazy," Jaden Smith commented under one of Bieber's post, while Instagram user @joetermini commented: "Just out here living your best life." But for people of color, natural hair isn't seen as trendy or cutting edge. It is often discriminated against and policed. In 2020, a Texas teen was suspended for refusing to cut his locs. In 2019, a New Jersey high school wrestler had to cut off his locs to avoid forfeiting the match. In 2015, Zendaya's locs were referred to as smelling of "patchouli oil and weed" on the Oscars red carpet. The list goes on. Locs – which are commonly referred to as dreadlocks, a term that holds a historically negative connotation – is a style where hair locks into fused coils over time. The hairstyle has traditionally been worn by people of color throughout history.
Lastly, we hit some quick hit topics like: Chicken sandwich fast food wars, SpaceX Lands it's first rocket, Bill Gates gets a divorce, & much more!
