With the most awkward ending yet, this final episode has a mish-mash of brain-dead humour and surprisingly smart opinions. Archit is someone who is very thorough about the things he is interested in, and so it was such a pleasure learning about the pull of a sneaker collection, and trying to rationalize the obsession via comparing it to more usual collectibles. As we explored themes of expression, and why the collections are often limited to watches and shoes rather than shirts and jeans, we traversed into the world of rap. Fighting against the claim that "rappers don't have talent", we talked about how often relatability, lyricism, and other factors are amplified when someone may just gravitate towards certain music because of how it creates a vibe. Some rappers have chosen to create music with greater potential to go viral, at the expense of quality, and there is nothing wrong with that. The awareness of this fact makes it much easier to appreciate the art form that is rap. Happy Listening!

Warmly,

Keshav
