Description

This week we talk about nostalgia. Everything in the 2020s from the latest fashion trends, movies, and popular music are often retro-inspired, if not just straight up recycling old trends. 

We talk about why nostalgia is so important to us right now, what it represents to our generation specifically, and capitalism’s stake in maintaining nostalgia as a means of controlling discourse.
