¡Aye, Madre, Aye! (a.k.a. "The Ranting")
MP3February 21, 2016
In part dos of the discussion with Arturo Vergara we discuss the value of a college education, the importance of agriculture, the false idea of a post-scarcity society and rapping, yo!
- During the education rant, Paul refers to an earlier show we did at The Centre for Digital Media. Here’s part 1 and part 2.
- Do we really have a Post-scarcity economy?
- Chris discusses a story from That Sugar Film.
- Internet for everyone is not altruistic. It simply means more customers. That’s why Google has balloons & Facebook is making drones.
- Arturo loves performing music. (Psst, he once posted something to his soundcloud.)
- Paul tries to convince Arturo to compose us a song for the show. Arturo says maybe he can collaborate with Jonathan Killearn.
- Arturo has a gorgeous jarana and plays it for us on the show!
- Paul’s Russian teacher wanted him to learn to play the Balalaika. Instead, he learned to play this song on guitar.
- The Swedish Chef performing Rapper’s Delight.
- Chris recommends Hush Tours for a unique view of New York. Much love to Grandmaster Caz, his tour guide.
