Or maybe, how big tech sells us the product to sell ourselves until they can better sell us for us… Honestly, this episode is a head spinner and you’re just gonna have to listen to find out for yourself.

This episode is hosted by Vida, Trevor, and Ken. In today’s episode the Sharks go down for down and pound for pound w/ collegiate sports.  From how the disgruntled whites don’t want the players to be paid, how Black players are still seen as having “special gifts” rather than “rigorous training” and viewing players as commodities, to the bottom line that money runs the game – one thing becomes most certainly clear; the kids aren’t wrong, the rules are wrong.

This episode is hosted by Trevor, Kenny, Vida, and Mario. “Wear a mask!” “Why are you still wearing a mask?!” “You can’t back into a parking spot!” “Marks new lawn decor is so distasteful!”. No matter the subject, white people love getting into other people’s business. It’s almost as if white people believe they are the “Referees Of Reality”. In today’s episode, the 4 Sharks unite to vent on why it is white people always think they have this ability to ref everyone else’s choices. If you know the Sharks then you probably already know the answer, and you know it’s gonna be a laugh riot as our 4 favorite heroes tear into this meat.

This episode is hosted by Trevor. Today we have Jason A England, an Assistant Professor of English at Carnegie Mellon back on the show to talk about the “creatives bubbles” and the bubbles within those bubbles. The glut of content on the hopes of making a fast grab of cash. As social media tycoons grab up book and entertainment deals, the questions have to be asked… “who does this appeal, and who is making these decisions?” And though you may hear them in the background, this episode is NOT for the birds.
