The fake immigration prank going viral + the legacy of Steve's Music

With comedian Ben Palmer’s fake immigration hotline going viral on TikTok and YouTube, Commotion guest host Radheyan Simonpillai is joined by culture critic El Jones and comedian Ashley Ray. They break down the satirical clips -- done in the style of Sacha Baron Cohen -- and explain what they reveal about our political discourse and this moment America is in. Plus - with stores in Montreal, Toronto, and Ottawa, Steve’s Music has served as a destination for generations of musicians seeking out new and vintage gear. However, in response to changing market conditions spurred by the internet, Steve’s recently announced it would be closing all but one of its five locations. Veteran blues guitarist – and long-time Steve’s customer – Danny Marks explains what its loss says about the state of the music retail today.
