Sundition

Good morning, good morning! As usual, for our Headline News edition of October 3rd, 2021, we have three, under-the-radar news stories for you guys: Lithuania angers China after recent report on Chinese-made cell phones (Euronews, VOA News), The Kashmiri diaspora threatened with social media censorship (Al Jazeera, Pakistan Observer), and Italy and Croatia battle it out over patented name of wine (NYT, Wanted in Rome). Take care of yourselves and have an amazing rest of your Sundays!

Go take a walk as you listen in on our thoughts about the infamous videos of side hustles and (not so passive) passive incomes. We talk about what that has to do with the traditional view of a career and how to balance out both extremes for the life you want to live. 

As an introduction to our new theme of media this season, we put out some thoughts surrounding mainstream news and social media on Instagram. Listen in on the results and more!

Welcome back, everyone! With the introduction of Season 3, we debut our new theme: media! Throughout this season, we will discuss media-related topics and for Episode 1, we talk about media's role in the great political divide. We hope you enjoy, and have a wonderful rest of your Sunday!

Welcome back to our podcast! It has been two weeks since our hiatus, and we can't wait to share with you the stories headlining this episode. Tune in to hear about these three news: Lebanon’s version of Jeff Bezos is now their Prime Minister (BBC, NYT), the Supreme Court of Brazil soon to rule on indigenous land (The Global Herald, Al Jazeera, Reuters), and a Silicon Valley startup stirs trouble in the other Californian valleys (NPR, North Bay Business Journal). Have a good Sunday!

Hello to everyone listening today! We are back with a chat about the anxiety of leaving home. Tune in to hear our past experiences with leaving our close family for extended periods of time along with tips for everyone to manage this type of stress. 

Join us and our guest, Crystal Widado, an inspiring teen who started making stickers during quarantine. She shares her unexpected jump from a lack of debate funds to honing her "unnatural artistic talent" on the iPad, and how anyone can do what she did as well. Listen in on her complaints about the Cricut machine, the development of her custom "Wilbur", her advice on running a sticker shop, her takes on ethical consumption within the so-called studygram along, and definitely, last but not least, how she turned her hobby to help personal social issues such as anti-asian racism.
