Ep.254 - Cruise Ships & Killers Of The Flower Moon
In a week where:
- Sean Combs settles a civil case within 24 hours of being accused of rape and severe physical abuse by former girlfriend Cassie.
- OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is fired only to be then hired by Microsoft.
- Kool & The Gang drummer George "Funky" Brown dies at 74.
- Far-Right libertarian Javier Milei wins Argentinian Presidential election.
- Happy 5th birthday "What's Good?"!
In Environment: (5:35) I was never into the idea of cruise ships when I was younger for a myriad of reasons, but with increasing evidence that cruise ships are THE worst when it comes to the environment - including this story about them not using long-established power sources - it's clear they got to go.
In Tech: (20:57) With Twitter getting worse by the day, it's beginning to show that there's a widening gap in the Social Media/News landscape. So what are the ramifications of a deteriorating news landscape?
In Politics: (37:53) Of all the reasons to hate Politics these days, one huge reason is the lack of empathy and how it only comes into play when it suits politicians.
Lastly, in Film: (49:12) I briefly talked about "Killers of the Flower Moon" a few episodes ago and the likes of Scorsese have since talked about the main issue with the film: A non-Osage, telling an Osage story. So am I being extra?
