Description

In this episode, we discuss emotions, the gig economy, dealing with customers as an underpaid employee, and the legacy of Occupy Wall Street.

Endnotes: 

1) The theory we attributed to Sausurre (4:56) is actually the Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis of Language. 

2) We did not technically invent the phrase “minimum wage, minimum effort,” (24:27) but we used it independent of hearing any one else use it and its origins remain unknown to us.
