  • Season 2 Recap

    Well folks, season 3 is upon us (coming at you starting next week). We here at 1WT collective thought it’d be fun to recap last season. In chronological order:

    * Heavenly Helper. Heavenly credit karma to tell you if you will go to heaven.

    * Manly manes. A parable about personal grooming and emotional understanding.

    * HD spouse-to-spouse understanding. High fidelity communication protocol between spouses.

    * Frida frozen. Personal historical museums and why everyone should have them.

    * Pro natal weirdness. An incentive program so we can have more, better quality children.

    * Renting to own. A new form of ownership the incentives property maintenance by transferring ownership rights.

    * Overcorrecting misogyny. A fraught discussion of male/female relations and their evolution.

    * Rethinking the noble butler. Why everyone needs a butler and a service to help deliver this dream.

    * Rich people are underprivileged. Some ideas for further privileging the wealthy among us.

    * English to american translation. Making English even more obnoxiously universal.

    Vijay’s favorite thought: Heavenly Helper and Frida Frozen.

    Kiran’s favorite thought: Rethinking the noble butler and (I’ve changed my mind after the episode) HD Spouse-to-spouse understanding.
