Rax and Amber welcome comedian and podcaster Dana Donnelly to talk the selfie, a phenomenon dating back to at least the 1840s. Since the advent of the smart phone, social media users have been practicing this much-maligned form of art. But is that just it— are selfies a return to the self-portrait, a new artistic medium in their own right, or are they a gateway drug to a world of body dysmorphia and plastic surgery obsession?

Special guest Producer Jake joins Courtney and Amber to muse on the brief moment in the early 70s where a bunch of Brits (and a few Americans) lost their minds and donned a bunch of glitter, boas, and, occasionally, swastikas. That's right, we're talking Glam Rock today, and though it's largely a genre defined by what it was NOT, there's plenty of trash gold to mine in this sprawling conversation.

Charles Entertainment Cheese was a legendary figure in the Bay Area animatronic music scene of the late 70s, but children of the 90s worldwide know him best as a purveyor of arcade games, giant playgrounds, and supremely mediocre pizza.

Multi-level marketing company or pyramid scheme? When your product is moldy and crumbling at the touch, that might be a dead giveaway.

Who would've thought turning a depressing croon about drowning your sorrows in margaritas into a resort was a good idea? Jimmy Buffett, that's who. Jaya Saxena took on the mission of a night in Times Square's Margaritaville resort and Rax and Amber are on the low culture mission to dissect the details. Along the way, the gals muse on how Americans engage with leisure time, who exactly this resort is for, and the phenomenon of "conspicuous vibing".

Wherever you stand on revealing attire, all bets are off on Hallows Eve. The slutty costume is a staple for many an upstanding citizen, but for many years it was an unnamed phenomenon. When and how did costumer become openly self-aware? Was it Halloween parades, ABC parties, the movie Mean Girls? Or maybe the large-scale commodification of the holiday helped usher in the trend? The three Low Culture detectives are on the case.
