Off the Spiritual Deep End w/ The Zen Blonde

Lauren of The Zen Blonde and I sit down to gossip about pop culture; but first we spent some time discussing our pursuit of the meaning of life. We talk about our shared history of going off the deep end in our youth and immersing ourselves in spiritual practice for years, emerging with some pretty unique perspectives on our experiences from temporarily becoming a monk to spending weeks on end in silent meditation. I told you we contain multitudes in this house.Pop culture gossip starts at 38:15 – where we talk about the Royals and their many coverups. We wrap up our thoughts on the season of Euphoria and ask, what is the difference between a tv show like this, porn and art? Is it the intention behind the project that defines it? What are the intentions of show runners Sam Levinson and executive producer Drake? Then, the Kanye of it all. Who decides who is crazy? What makes a label stick to a celeb while others continually get redemption arcs? We talk about celebs who can't shake off their label of being controversial like Azealia Banks and celebs who should have had that label stick to them longer like Armie Hammer who has bounced back a little too quickly from his cannibalism scandal.
