[Reruns] 88! Meme Metabolism and Internet (Speak) Speeds

January 12, 2021

Why does culture seem to move so quickly? And how do we keep up with the speed of internet speak? [24:44]


Given the events of this last week and getting back into the new year, one bonus week of reruns from the Nonsense Wellspring!


Again, Joey and special guests Steven Ebert and Nora Mestrich talk about all things speed: B-Boys, being "passé aggressive," being "extremely online," Nora's One Direction blog, and important initialisms. They don't talk about how Extremely Online Cakes now—for a limited time we don't fully know—has a specialty tshirt available on our Bonfire store.
