Vans Warped Tour DC kicked off on June 14, aka Trump’s birthday and the date of the Army’s 250th anniversary parade. Between the authoritarian amount of tanks in the nation’s capital, the attacks on the LGBTQ+ community (especially during Pride month), the Israeli violence perpetrated against Palestinians, and the vile ICE raids happening in Los Angeles and beyond… it’s fair to say that the punks have a lot to say about the state of the world. These brave musicians and artists used their platforms (which were broadcast on Amazon Prime) to speak truth to power. Here are the political messages… Read more »

Wesam is back with Episode 338 of Wesam’s World Podcast! This week, Alex puts Wesam’s AI detection skills to the test—and let’s just say… results were mixed.
From there, it’s a deep dive into one of their favorite topics: 1993, aka the greatest movie year of all time (don’t argue). The 90s knew how to do film right. They also dig into the importance of communication skills in the workplace, how people miss basic connection cues, and—because it’s Wesam’s World—things eventually spiral into some bad rapping and off-key singing.
Insight, nostalgia, chaos. The usual.
