Britney (with Preston Ng)

from Contextless Hosted by Fernando Martinez

My guest, a friend and fellow Britney Spears fan, Preston Ng (@prest0ney), and I discuss all things Britney. We share our thoughts on the recent New York Times documentary on Hulu titled "Framing Britney Spears," her career, her music, the fine line between an artist and their fans, the media's complicity in a public figure's pain, and still so much more. We also discuss the recent (yet historically reoccurring) waves of anti-Asian violence in the SF Bay Area and nationally.
