For episode 108 of Telepathy, Enzo and Anna are reopening their conversation on concert culture in 2025. They discuss the increasing popularity of TikToks that unfairly criticize an artist's tour. When a two-hour performance is watered down in a fifteen-second TikTok or Instagram reel, artists are left with accusations of lip-syncing, boring choreography, or a lack of stage presence. From Renee Rapp's outfit choices to Lorde on a treadmill, no artist is safe from being "clipped." In addition, Enzo and Anna comment on the difficulty of securing concert tickets and the concept of being "worthy enough" to attend an artist's show. Whether it's a Ticketmaster battle for the front row at Ariana Grande's upcoming tour or a pit full of phones recording, the universal concert experience continues to change. All of that to say...a 45-minute discussion was much needed. Enjoy!
