Back to School, Here We Go Again | Fly and Butterfly Ep 16

Episode 16 of Fly & Butterfly! This one goes everywhere — from the sad state of American school lunches (turns out the same companies feeding your kids are feeding prisons) to why "women's empowerment" started as wartime marketing, a courtroom showdown over a $90 ticket with a cop in an unmarked Hyundai, predictions about drones replacing highways, and a genuinely emotional story about watching a rocket launch and what it means to have someone be "the fire" behind you.If you've ever wondered why your kid eats lunch at 10:45am, why nonprofits keep more of your donation than you think, or what the Mahabharata has to do with staying away from negative people — this episode has you covered.**In this episode:**00:00 Cold open — sweating & compliments01:38 School lunch in America09:34 Capitalism & working parents20:15 The traffic ticket story27:50 Back-to-school prep29:19 Drones & the future of commuting34:32 Gifts, Coach bags & ripped jeans39:15 The rocket launch & Mahabharata49:22 Plugs & outro**Links:**🎤 Book Vishnu for shows: vishnuvaka.com🎭 Mahita's shows & life coaching: mahitavaka.com | @mahitavaka🎟️ Jovarta (ticketing platform for artists & clubs): www.jovarta.com📍 Catch Vishnu live: Philly (Punchline, Philly Nov 12) · Stress Factory NJ, opening for Russell Peters (Oct 10–11),  Sep 24th Claude's Philly**Subscribe for new episodes** and let us know in the comments what you want us to talk about next!
