While Making a Mixtape, Asher Roth Built an Online Community

As Asher contemplated making music during the COVID-19 pandemic, he came up with an idea: What if The Greenhouse Effect Vol. 3 was “entirely produced by fan/f...

Gaining Function

It's a little like Dr. Frankenstein bringing life to a corpse. You shouldn't believe a vaccine will eradicate it. It's a curious thing to see how it spread. Other viruses are coming our way, smart viruses that can infect specific populations while leaving others harmless. Natural laws go back a long way and we no longer live in harmony with those laws.

In this episode, satyrs collide with a one-eyed giant called a cyclopes--as well as encountering Greece's wily warrior, Odysseus. “Drink, dance & be merry” was the satyrs' motto.
