Whyspace

Taylor Swift famously wrote the lyrics, “Can I ask you a question?” While seemingly a simple query, it plays to the idea that we all have questions some we never pose and some we agonize over never being answered. Pop culture is overrun with gossip columnists, blind items and paparazzi photos in this predatory society we live in. But what if you actually got to sit down with your favorite artist, or athlete? What if you got to ask them all the questions you’ve always wondered? But here’s the catch, you can’t ask them questions that you’ve seen speculated on in social media. Instead, you get to ask them why. Why did they write that song? Why did that choose that part to audition for? Why did they sign with that team? Why did they write that book? Myspace was “a place for friends.” Whyspace is place where we get to know each other. Knowing why someone does something can literally change the trajectory of history. That being said, “Can I ask you a question?”

This past week was heavy in America and we in no way take that lightly. However, this isn't a political podcast, nor a news app, and we cover pop culture and sports. So that's what we did in episode 85. Hollywood was full of breakups over the weekend and our favorite pop princess did not make a visible appearance at the Kansas City Chiefs game. But, we did still recap several college football matchups and NFL games. We also made our predictions, which have been less than stellar so far this season. But hey, there's always next week. We answered your questions and we also shared some things we are loving and hating right now. This is a two-part episode b/c as you know, technology is not our friend.
