High Fidelity

Wicker Park, record stores, and emotionally-stunted men. On this episode we discuss the 2000 romantic comedy High Fidelity directed by Stephen Frears and starring John Cusack. Revisit the past when life was analog, people shopped in stores, and the city was a great (and affordable) place to be young and cool. We take a deep dive into the origins of the word hipster, consider what it means to be a sell out, and conclude that resistance to change in our lives and in our cities is futile.
