The Democratization of Fame
This week, we had a discussion about the meteoric rise of accessible fame. In the last year, TikTok has completely changed the geography and context of fame, building on the influencer culture of the last decade. We want to know why this is happening and what it means. That's what we try to figure out in this episode.

Quitting the comparison
So many things matter and still a lot of things just...don't. This week, we talk about how everything feels different as seniors, even this early into the school year, which includes removing ourselves from comparison culture. It's a non-linear process and it takes effort, but right now, it feels worth it.
