As the great band Sparks (playing in Brooklyn next month, and YES we are in the street team) once said “Everybody’s stupid, that’s for sure.” Nas and OK discuss two instances where they could have been banned from IFC, an evil place that charges $14 for beer (EVEN THOUGH THE SIGN SAYS 10!!) It’s become imperative to bring outside food into the theater, we simply cannot afford the movie otherwise. NYU doesn’t own all of downtown Manhattan, just most of it, and if they’re gonna turn it into a strip mall than let us be insane tranny strippers. REWARD US FOR BEING ANNOYING, IT KEEPS THE CULTURE SAFE!!

We talk about localization and the great yuppie exodus of New York City 2020. Propublica confirmed everything we’ve been saying on this show for months, that Cuomo and De Blasio murdered tens of thousands of people through their refusal to shutdown the city. Kicking houseless people off the subways and adding a couple UV lamps are not going to be enough to make people feel safe to do retail and tourism again without also providing massive testing and other essentials like food and rent relief. Which is why China is about to easily overtake the United States as the global superpower, whoopsies. And we thought the city was becoming a giant police state mall BEFORE the pandemic!! PS – the only opposition party we have is fighting to protect corporations and fund the cops over workers.

Warning that this episode is gets into some heavy allegories, we’re very raw in our feelings. That said, we discuss the latest on Amazon NYC, which despite the AOC spin, is NOT A WIN. We also touch on the latest Art Miami Basel controversy spectacle, and the state of gentrification and unionization. Plus we make a bunch of references to Rick and Morty, The Irishman, and Promare. It’s a postmodern nightmare. If you like the podcast and want more, please consider supporting us: https://www.patreon.com/artandlabor. Follow us on twitter and instagram.
