In this week's episode, Mereyah lays out 5 simply complex reasons for why representation matters. With exemplars from media and entertainment,   she asserts the responsibility of powerful organizations and industries to make represenation an intentional priority. She expresses how representation can influence impressionable children, and carry a sense of belonging throughout adulthood. But don't quote her on it, of course.

This week we're unpacking the in-between of daydreams - or better, what the heck we're DOING when we're in the in-between of reality during a daydream. Mereyah explores the whimsical idea that daydreams are telling us more than we give them credit for, and they signal even more important things about us - but don't quote her on it. 

This week, Mereyah sits down with the topic of movie theaters and their future. She discusses the matter with a long time friend and film degree holder/connoisseur, Zach Smith, and they hash out the factors that have led the theater industry to its current position, and how new tech could shape the future of the movie theater as so many know and love it. They mention the last movies they saw prior to the current world, discuss big recent moves from big industry players, and even a bit of cinema history. It's candid, there's hot takes, and as usual -- don't quote them on it.

This week Mereyah is joined by icon, hype woman, model, but most importantly friend - Kaitlyn Covington. They discuss the meaning of "redirection" in your life, how it shows up differently for everyone, and how it can sometimes be the best thing to happen to you. 

They chat about modeling, fashion, and balancing a busy student lifestyle. It's a good in-between, but don't quote us on it.

In this episode, Mereyah flies solo as she overviews one of Netflix's most recent and largest original successes, the Queen's Gambit. Dubbed an unlikely hit, the show is discussed in terms of cinematography, its cultural impact on the chess world, and some hidden symbols & people within the scenes. Mereyah also briefly touches on the bubbling structure and resurgence of the mini-series and comments on what this could mean in the future. Mereyah is no match for chess (yet), so as usual don't quote her on it.
