37 min - 320: Nightclub Economics
In today’s episode, I reflect on a viral video from a Miami nightclub that stuck with me more than I expected and sent me down a personal rabbit hole about club culture, status, and masculinity. It brought back memories of how I used to feel in those spaces and made me realize that The Roots and Little Brother were saying something I wasn’t ready to hear back then. I also share a separate reminder to check in on your mental health.
