The Kardashians: Kapitalizing On Fake Empathy w/ KoKo
This week our guest is film buff, kids entertainer, dark wave artist and Spice Girls enthusiast, KoKo.This week we discuss one of the most infamous families in America. From their unfortunate launch into fame to pushing the ideas of unattainable beauty, they've done it all. While also playing on the sympathy of many fans by being the protagonist in a very fake version of reality. Sometimes the realization we live in The Dumbest Timeline isn't that deep, sometimes it's just a group of people who feed us really poor ideas about fame, relationships and wealth.

Laura however did, and to this day, folks tell me I did a solid job of speaking "with" Spike Lee as oppose to speaking "to" Spike Lee. In this Not A Journalist...

Google Is A Genius, Dot Com
Episode VII: Genius.com, who doesn't own the rights to the song lyrics on their site, is suing Google for $50M for stealing the song lyrics from their site. I try and figure out why Genius and Google are playing a game in which song writers probably don't see a penny. I discuss the trials and tribulations of how song lyrics are similar to sheet music and why people should be paid when someone accesses the lyrics to their songs and how the whole thing is a mess.
