In this episode, I talk about the fallout from Trophy Room backdooring back in the news. I talk about Complex's editorial coverage of it and I gatekeep the gatekeepers. I also talk about the Kobe 6 and the dilemma of the hype charity sneaker. I talk about some recent Nike lawsuits, which leads to talking about how the era of big name sneaker designers at Nike seems to be over.
