The Deep End

by Isaiah Martinez

The Deep End is a deep dive into the fascination of Social Phenomenas. Here I help explore the polarizing sensations and what it is that drives us so crazy about them. It is intended to talk about current news, tech development and evolution of pop culture. At times, there will be movie reviews, sports commentary and even history parallels as sometimes these factors become very relevant with cultural changes and generational shifts.
