In this episode, Maureen and Mashudu kick off the conversation with the “Liberation Day” tariffs and discuss whether they will yield unintended consequences. They follow this up with an extensive conversation on “Tokenization,” sparked by Robinhood founder Vlad Tenev’s recent op-ed in The Washington Post. The discussion seems to lighten when they begin talking about traveling and road trips, but the purpose is actually to explore the challenges and costs associated with celebrating culture in the city, as well as South Africa’s Apartheid spatial planning legacy and how it continues to affect modern-day society—keeping many segregated with little hope of improving their lived reality... Hope you enjoy! 🌚
