Ep.153 - Culture Overload & Monogamy

In a week where:

1. Kyle Rittenhouse is found not guilty for his acts during an anti-racist rally in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
2. Indian PM Narendra Modi repeals controversial farm laws after a year of protests.
3. Austria re-enters lockdown as COVID cases rise in Europe. 
4. Five people die and 40 injured after car speeds into a parade in Wisconsin.
5. Peng Shuai appears in pictures & video after the Tennis world proclaim she was missing.

In Sports: (6:52) Former cricketer Azeem Rafiq has called out Yorkshire Cricket and the entire culture of English Cricket for allowing racism to be weaved into the wider culture of Cricket. I for one am surprised this has taken this long.

In the 1st of two Life segments: (21:30) Monogamy is widely accepted as the thing we as humans seek to participate and uphold. But does history & science suggest that we're even built for it?

In Film/TV: (39:02) As we bathe in this era of Superhero blockbusters and notable figures shitting on said Superhero blockbusters, Christopher Nolan's new $100 Million WW2 film "Oppenheimer" could be the last of its kind.

Lastly, in the 2nd Life segment: (53:17) It's obvious that due to the internet, the ease of access to literally anything and everything, it's getting increasingly easier to get lost in it all. So are we drowning in "culture"?
