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!!

Remember back in the day when we used to wax philosophical about the meaning and role of art? Oh you don’t, because this is the first episode you’ve ever listened to? Well buckle up, cuz Lucia printed a new edition of their screed, and they’re here to inculcate the youth. OK leads the OG duo through some thoughtful tangents that would make Alan Watts swoon as they flip through copies of “Visionary Statement 1.5” lovingly riso printed by Hannah Brookman of Looky Here fame. If you listened to this whole episode and it made you want to see some art irl, Lucia’s show SOULCANO is on view at Giovanni’s Room LA until July 29th. If this episode made you want to read the dang zine, then contact @Lucia_Love on IG to get your copy before they’re all confiscated and burned as contraband.

Darcie, OK, and Sarah get in their feelings this week after some hurtful, toxic people decided to write articles that gave them agita and welled their sparkling Ghibli-wiggly eyes. OK, as per usual, sat too long above the Delphic vapors and what was once incomprehensible babbling now proves prophetic. What is it about this big beautiful city that takes over peoples brains like the fungus that spores out of an ant’s head and says “what culture is missing is my trailblazing frippery. I am truly a tribune of the people (who own iPhones)” (subscribe to the patreon at patreon.com/artandlabor)?
Embrace the dark twin pillars of compulsive dirtbag left-bashing and yelling at them dag-nabbed trustfund Party Monsters to get off our lawn. Remember kids, the only good affect is a flat affect and other negative symptoms, present for a significant portion of time during a 1-month period, concurrent with at least one other characteristic: delusions, hallucinations, or disorganized speech (e.g., frequent derailment or incoherence), and when depressive or bipolar disorder with psychotic features has been ruled out.
