There has never been a time throughout all of human history where it has been easier to be USELESS. But don’t worry, we’re here to tell you how to avoid all that. We kick off the episode by talking about these unprecedented times we live in. Things that might have been shameful even as recently as twenty years ago aren’t exactly so shameful anymore, and now more than ever, it’s pretty easy to do essentially nothing at all. We talk a little bit about how you can provide value in your life, and how it can improve pretty much everything you do. Then we get perhaps our longest and most detailed Matt rant to date, and it all starts with a wojak meme. We dive deep into the myth of how things were “simpler” in the past, and how returning to tradition is supposedly going to fix everything.  We finish out the episode with a little lesson about what money ACTUALLY is, and how it goes a little deeper than just simply buying and selling. We talk about exactly where real value comes from, and Kevin leaves us with some parting advice about misplaced rage. Thanks to everyone who joined us for our special WEDNESDAY recording this week, and a huge shout out to our patrons who make this show happen. We’ll see you all again next week! You love anime.
