Lisää Sorta Sophisticated

A podcast rooted in becoming more cultured and curious. Where we endeavor to suspend judgment, expand our worldview and explore new topics that will help us learn to appreciate varying perspectives and values. But really it's a show where we hope to enlighten anyone who cares on topics that might make them more interesting and well versed humans and just dangerous enough to hold their own in this sophisticated world. Well, sort of.

Episode 106 - Marilyn Monroe: The Most Seen, Least Known Woman in History

In today's episode, we're going to make an argument that is going to make some of you uncomfortable. The argument is this: Marilyn Monroe, the most photographed woman of the twentieth century, did not become a cultural icon because she was beautiful. She became one because she was dangerous - a woman who figured out exactly what the system wanted from her, gave it to them on purpose, and then used that power to start taking the whole thing apart from the inside. We are going to talk about where she actually came from, the moves she made that were genuinely radical for their time, and what the world did to her every single time she tried to show them who she really was. She would have turned 100 this month. This is not a tribute episode. It is a question about what we do with a woman we never actually let speak - and whether we've learned anything since.

Episode 105 - Miles Davis: The Man Who Quit His Own Genius

In today's episode, we're going to make an argument that is going to make some of you uncomfortable. The argument is this: Miles Davis, the most influential musician of the twentieth century - did not become extraordinary because he mastered his craft. He became extraordinary because he kept destroying it. Every time he reached the top, he walked away from the sound that got him there and started over from nothing. We are going to talk about the music, the five or six times he blew up his own career on purpose, and what the jazz world, the critics, and his audiences did to him every single time he did it. We’re going to talk about what all of it says about a much bigger question: do we actually let the people we love change? Or do we only love them for who they already were? He would have turned 100 this month. This is not a tribute episode. It is a question about what we do with genius - and whether we deserve it.

Episode 103 - The Guilt Screen: How America Turned Gratitude Into a Transaction

You go to a coffee shop. You walk up to the counter. The barista turns the iPad around. There are four options. Eighteen percent. Twenty percent. Twenty-five percent. And then, in tiny little letters, in the bottom corner - no tip. And you feel like a monster for even looking at it. Like you just kicked a dog in public. That feeling (that little electric jolt of guilt and social shame) that didn't happen by accident. That was engineered. And today, we are going to talk about how America took a polite little European custom, pumped it full of steroids, attached it to a touchscreen, and turned it into the most passive-aggressive financial transaction in human history. Welcome to the world of tipping.
