Ep.213 - Not Reading & Edward Hopper

In a week where:

1. Memphis reels as the video footage of five police officers murdering Tyre Nichols drops.
2. Rishi Sunak sacks Nadhim Zahawi for breaking the ministerial code over his tax affairs.
3. Djokovic wins the Australian Open, a record-equalling 22nd Grand Slam title.
4. A suicide bomber strikes inside a mosque in the north-western Pakistani city of Peshawar, killing at least 59 people and wounding another 150.
5. UK expected to be only major economy to shrink in 2023 according to the IMF.

In Society - (6:16) If it wasn't bad enough that the UK is a trash economy, the UN also reports that the UK is institutionally racist! But we knew that already.

In Life - (17:22) It's important for everyone to read and keep developing themselves. But for the likes of Kanye & Sam Bankman-Fried, it's apparently not necessary!

In Music - (34:10) With Justin Bieber selling his music catalogue, it's a seminal moment for the trend. But it's still a complex issue for high-value artists. Why?

Lastly, in Art - (46:20) One of my favourite artists is Edward Hopper and I found this article gassing his work. Do I need a reason to read?
