Nicolette (TW/IG: @n_marasa) and Bryant (TW/IG: @MrMindheart) come together again this week to discuss one of many philosophical questions that will be brought forward in the coming episodes. The question is core to our approach as humans, and that is whether people are inherently good or inherently bad. We discuss societal expectations,  psychological effects of trauma on kids, and finally offer up our perspective. Come listen for one of our deepest conversations yet.

It's 4/20, we smoked, and we're talking about all sorts of stuff. Awkward silences, burps, and cursing ensues. Join me, Nicolette, and Sanjana Stein (IG: sanjanaelina) for peak stupidity and some actually deep conversation.

Nicolette (TW/IG: @n_marasa) brings her extensive retail experience to the table at places like Victoria Secret and Nordstrom's to talk about where retail is headed, what customers want, and the intense desire for customization. She's joined by co-host Bryant (TW/IG: @MrMindheart), who brings broader focuses of financial incentives and automation to the table to deliver the widest look at retail that you'll hear in under an hour.

New co-host Nicolette Marasa joins the conversation to discuss a topic that will define us for generations to come, if we let it. Income inequality is stark in America, and it's time we address it. Mired in ideology, and rooted in many other systemic issues, problem-solving must be pragmatic, and our approach collective. It's now or never.

Bryant discusses the continued pains of our individualist nature. Individualism is core to the American ideal, but to solve our grand challenges, we must come together. How do we balance these two facts? Let's discuss.

Bryant discusses how racial caste has built this country, and how it's tearing us apart. The question is, what happens next?

Bryant discusses the idea that our society isn't binary. It isn't us v. them, Democrat v. Republican, black v. white. We're rich and cultured, diverse in background and thought. A conscious choice is required to properly realize the American promise, and that takes a conscious choice by us all.
