Ned introduces Meg to the mini-genre of music and visual art called Vaporwave. If you grew up in the 1980s and 90s, you will immediately get the aesthetic, because it's digitally repackaged nostalgia for things from our youth, before they failed to deliver on their promises. Thanks for listening, listen to vaporwave, wash your hands, don't be a dick.

Ned and Meg discuss the long history of the concept of hedonism and how it gets sort of a bad rap. For four thousand years, give or take, people have been arguing, sometimes strenuously, over the concept of pleasure and how to measure, maximize, and promote it. We talk about the philosophy of hedonism as well as the neurology and biological basis for it. Are you a doomer who thinks you can only experience a certain amount of happiness no matter what you do? Are you locked into a hedonic treadmill or can you alter your experiences enough to remain happy? Check it out and see what you think after this utterly riveting episode. Thanks for listening, wash your hands, don't be a dick!

Ned and Meg generally don't find reaction videos entertaining, until the personal strife of the reactors becomes apparent, in which case Meg thinks they're riveting. We talk about consuming other people's misery, getting rated for inland water sailing, and the dangers of ingesting household chemicals. This one's a shorty! Thanks for listening, wash your hands, don't be a dick.
