"Happy Hour" w/ Lauren Michele Jackson

"Happy" hour? Says who, the government!? This week, we're joined by public intellectual Lauren Michele Jackson to explore the manufactured consent around one of America's most notorious hours. Is it a worker's rights win or a baby bottle to keep us complacent? Hard to tell, tbh, but we'd love another Aperol Spritz STAT! Plus, is podcasting a race to the bottom? Are the humanities valid? Is tea grad-school coded? Listen to find out!
