Happy New Years! We are back with episode 87 of the Hentations. We are coming in hot for our first episode of 2022, which is all about going viral. In a world where audiences have become more interested in big moments, how does that dictate the content that is being created? For some platforms, this means creating drama or tension in hope of generating a viral moment. On this episode we examine the choice to create that type of content and how this impacts us as content creators that look to have our own content make waves. Listen to the episode and share your thoughts with us on social media.

And we are back with episode 85 of the Hentations! How “real” do you like your rappers? This is a question that many of us are left asking after yet another artist, Young Dolph, was recently murdered. While we all love the music, it’s also troubling to love the only genre where you actively think that some of your favorite artists could be killed. Listen to our thoughts on this topic and share yours with us on social media!

And we are back with episode 83 of the Hentations. For this episode, we’re talking about whether you should know if you want a relationship with someone in a certain amount of time. While some people know right away whether they want to pursue anything serious with a person they’re dating, others take a little more time. Should you be upset if someone doesn’t know as soon as you? Have you done your due diligence and asked the right questions? These are just some of the questions that your favorite cohosts are looking to answer in this episode. Let us know your thoughts on this topic on social media!

And we are back with episode 81 of the Hentations! As we continue to see celebrities struggle with moral or legal struggles, we are constantly left to wonder whether we can separate the art from the artist. While some of us find it easy to simply focus on the art, we all have our limits. During this episode, your favorite co-hosts explain their criteria for separating the art from the artist and share their opinions on whether this is something that is easier said than done. Share your criteria for separating the art from the artist with us on social media!

And we are back with episode 80! What would you tell a younger you? This is a question that’s often asked and one that’s been pondered by the Hentations as we celebrate our 10 year high school reunion. Whether we’d be sharing life lessons, or telling our teenage selves to get in the podcast game early, we would at least be able to tell ourselves that they still have the same great friends to count on. Check out this episode to see what we’d say and share the advice that you’d give to a younger you.

And we are back with episode 78 of the Hentations! Is college really worth it? That is the question that we’re seeking to answer in this episode. Not all degrees are created equally and the return on invest is definitely not the same across the board. Knowing that, how should people decide whether to go to college?
