Topics Covered:
• What 3D viewers and stereoscopes actually are, and the real science (stereoscopy) behind how two slightly different images create depth in the brain
• How a thrifted 1933 "Century of Progress" World's Fair viewer, sparked by reading The Devil in the White City, launched Keita's collection
• The surprising 150-year history of 3D viewing devices — from 1880s Holmes-style stereoscopes to the True View company to View-Master's 1939 debut at the New York World's Fair
• Why stereoscopy is still functioning technology today — used in lunar missions and modern surgery — even though the viewing devices themselves feel delightfully analog
• The near-total absence of Black people in 3D photography and stereo cards from the 1800s through the 1950s, and the handful of derogatory exceptions that did exist
• Keita's mission to find and preserve non-derogatory 3D images connected to Black history, including Howard University's opening, Black soldiers, a Tuskegee classroom, and a candid photo of Hank Aaron
• What it's like being one of very few Black collectors in a predominantly white collecting community
• Why Keita sees herself as a caretaker rather than a hoarder — researching, organizing, and documenting every piece instead of just accumulating them
• The legacy plan already built into her will, specific pieces going to her husband and collector friends, with the rest earmarked for a museum focused on African-American history
• Her advice for anyone wanting to start collecting: find one object that sparks curiosity, research it, then deliberately keep your focus narrow

• How her son's school going "hard no" on cell phones sent Ava from Discman to Walkman to cassette deck to a house full of vintage hi-fi gear
• Why old radios are often shockingly cheap to fix (30–50 cent capacitors and transistors) compared to today's disposable, chip-based electronics — and how she taught herself with YouTube, a Discord community, and a little AI help
• The meditative, almost therapeutic pull of tinkering — how repairing radios became her "safe place" and an escape from a world that feels "horrible" right now
• Ava's 2026 words to live by, "joy is rebellion," and why choosing joy on purpose feels like an act of resistance
• Finding unexpected belonging as a trans person in an online radio-repair Discord — where the only thing that matters is whether you love the machines
• Why '70s-era audio gear was built to be repaired, not replaced, and how that connects to France's new law penalizing companies for designing products to fail
• Rebuilding professional confidence after a rough stretch in her career — and how the problem-solving skills from radio repair are bleeding into parenting, client work, and everyday troubleshooting
• The science (and personal experience) behind why a radio you find beautiful can make music sound better to you than one that's technically superior
• How every restored radio carries a story, from a stranger's "are you sure you want to buy this, it's broken?" eBay message to a friend's inherited 1960s build-it-yourself radio kit
• Ava's business, The Crafted Cauldron, the boutique creative studio she and her sister run together

Topics Covered:
• Why "disconnected" was Derek's word of the year — and what he discovered it actually meant: Derek set a New Year's theme around connection, only to realize that what was making him feel most disconnected was technology itself — the constant mediation of reality through apps and platforms.
• The technology entanglement problem: Even people who want to quit can't fully escape — soccer leagues use apps, kids' activities require check-ins, boarding passes live on your phone. Derek argues the goal isn't perfection but reclaiming agency.
• The spreadsheet method for tech auditing: Derek built a massive spreadsheet cataloging every technology in his life, including how it made him feel, what he wished were different, and what alternatives existed — then worked through it slowly, one or two items at a time, for a full year.
• Dedicated devices as a form of resistance: Pulling individual functions out of the smartphone — a separate camera, an iPod for music — reduces the phone's opportunities to control your attention. It's not nostalgia; it's deliberate disarmament.
• The surprising feeling of disconnecting: Derek expected enlightenment. What he found was mostly just... the absence of a bad feeling. Like not being hungry — it doesn't feel like much, but it's a lot better than the alternative.
• Utopian thinking and speculative fiction as tools for imagining different futures: Derek pushes back on technological inevitability. Science fiction, he argues, doesn't predict one future — it reveals how contingent everything is. Things were different. They can be different again.
• The individual vs. systemic action trap: Neither "nothing I do matters" nor "it's all individual choices" is the full picture. Derek holds both — personal action and systemic awareness — as necessary and non-contradictory.
• AI and the challenge of staying intentional with new technologies: Derek is neither a booster nor an alarmist, but does think AI is different — it's already entangled in everything, and the real work is applying the same circumspect, introspective evaluation to it that he brought to the rest of his tech audit.
• Why boredom is actually the point: Creativity, presence, and genuine connection require unstructured space. Learning to be bored again — without reaching for a device — is not a regression. It's the practice.
• The novel, disappointed idealism, and where real hope lives: Derek has been working on a retro sci-fi novel about a one-time utopian beaten down by the world. Writing it changed him — and brought him to a place where he genuinely believes that the most hopeful thing we have is the simple fact that we do not know what the future holds.

Topics Covered:
• Rest as ancestral honoring: Chrissy reads the Substack post that sparked this episode — resting not just for herself, but for enslaved ancestors who never had that freedom — and the complex emotions that holding both rest and achievement creates for Black women.
• What rest actually looks like: From Saturday morning reading to crochet, phone-free walks in NYC, and embracing boredom — how Chrissy has actively curated a slower, more joyful life, including the deliberate choice to be child-free.
• Rejecting the girl boss revival: Why Chrissy refuses to participate in the return of hustle culture, and how she's disconnecting from external "should" messaging about productivity, wake-up times, and constant achievement.
• Body liberation and time liberation are the same fight: The link between diet culture's rules about bodies and productivity culture's rules about time — both rooted in perfectionism and white supremacy, and both demanding we conform to someone else's template.
• Softness as revolution: For Black women, allowing yourself to feel and be soft — in your home, your relationships, with yourself — is a radical act in a society that has historically withheld that softness from Black people.
• "Rest is resistance" is not universal: A direct, unflinching conversation about why Trisha Hersey's message, while monumental, does not apply the same way to white women — and why this political moment demands that white people do active resistance work, not claim rest as their form of it.
• White women and co-optation: How the body positivity movement and rest as resistance have both been watered down and co-opted by white women, and the difference between having a personal body image issue versus living in a systemically oppressed body.
• The guilt inside the guilt: The double bind many Black people feel — the pressure to achieve because ancestors couldn't, and the guilt of resting when so many Black people still don't have access to rest and ease.
• AI, humanity, and reclaiming deep thinking: Why outsourcing our thinking to AI — including how to navigate conflict with a friend — strips us of part of our humanity, and why the struggle and messiness of figuring things out is essential to being human.
• Social media is a false sense of connection: How putting the phone down opened up space for real friendship, real community, and real creativity — and why what you're "missing" online is almost never worth what you lose by being on it.

Topics Covered:
• How a midnight YouTube rabbit hole started everything. Sojourner discovered Amtrak's scenic mountain routes over wine at midnight in 2021, booked a ticket the next morning, and never looked back, including how a single Instagram post about that first trip revealed there was an audience hungry for exactly this kind of content.
• Train travel as analog antidote. What happens when you give yourself permission to slow down (junk journaling, word searches, painting, reading, and looking out the window) and how train travel reintroduced Sojourner to activities she used to love that have nothing to do with a screen.
• The unexpected history lesson in every train ride. From the Chinese immigrants who built the Western railroads, to the Pullman porters of the Midwest, to hearing her godmother describe sitting in a segregated train car in Detroit, how obsessing over trains became a surprisingly deep education in American history.
• Being a Black solo female traveler on trains and internationally. What it's like to "gauge" a fellow traveler before engaging, to be a constant source of curiosity in Japan and Vietnam, and how train spaces—low-stakes, temporary, neutral—have helped Sojourner stretch her trust in strangers.
• People are genuinely good, and train travel keeps proving it. From sharing snacks with strangers on a train in India via Google Translate, to casual dining car conversations, to the Japanese man offering her snacks on the Shinkansen,  what a decade of train travel has taught her about humanity.
• Traveling homebody: how trains replicate home. Why Sojourner loves trains specifically, they give her a room, bring her meals, let her watch movies, call her mom, and do her junk journal while technically going somewhere. The sleeper car as the ultimate slow-travel experience.
• Being a content creator who protects the experience. How Sojourner has built systems—shot lists, themes, filming boundaries—that let her actually enjoy her trips instead of documenting every second. Plus: the places she deliberately doesn't film, and why she doesn't want to.
• Practical train travel advice for beginners. The top scenic US routes (California Zephyr, Coast Starlight, Empire Builder), when to book, what to bring, how to navigate the dining car as a solo traveler, and why your sleeper car attendant is your secret weapon.
• From introvert to extrovert, by way of the rails. Sojourner's brothers joke that she used to stare at the menu instead of talking to servers. Now she'll strike up a conversation with anyone on a train. What that shift has meant for how she moves through the world.
• Millennials, burnout, and the quiet return to analog. Sojourner on her friend group's growing preference for tech-free hangs, photo albums over Instagram dumps, and the difference between documenting for social versus documenting for yourself.

Topics Covered:
• From layoff to Vietnam to Homii. How losing her corporate job became the catalyst for a year of travel, a TikTok channel about Black American life in Vietnam, and eventually a full-blown community platform, all connected by Whitney's lifelong orientation toward people and belonging.
• Why people are desperate for in-person connection but can't find it. Whitney's market research reveals that the barrier isn't desire, it's anxiety, scattered information, and not knowing where you'll be safe or welcomed. Homii is designed to close that gap.
• The problem with existing platforms. Facebook groups, Eventbrite, Meetup, none of them are actually built for how humans connect. Whitney breaks down what's missing and what Homii is doing differently, including vetting hosts and training third spaces.
• What it means to belong somewhere as a Black woman in Vietnam. Whitney shares what it's like to be a constant source of shock in your own neighborhood, and how finding "home base" spaces that feel safe became the seed of everything she's building.
• Third spaces are disappearing, and that's a crisis. Whitney makes a passionate case for why we need the adult equivalent of a college student union: places where you can just show up, exist, and be, without rushing or performing.
• How technology has eroded our ability to connect in person. The skills we're losing — striking up a conversation, sitting with a stranger, making eye contact — and what Whitney has learned from living abroad about what we've traded away.
• Designing for the introvert, not just the connector. Whitney is building Homii specifically for the ninety percent of people who aren't naturally wired for community-building, matching by identity and interest, curating group size, and training hosts to make the small human gestures that lower the stakes.
• Why you can't trust reviews anymore, and what Homii is doing instead. Real belonging requires real accountability. Whitney's review framework asks not "was it five stars?" but "would you bring your mom here?"
• A Christmas Eve karaoke moment that captures everything. 70 people from Norway, Vietnam, the US, and beyond, and the beautiful, visible process of strangers unlearning stereotypes in real time.
• Whitney's personal offline practice. Salsa dancing four nights a week, phone-down presence with people, and the Vietnamese cultural norm of sitting with someone in real life before talking business, what she's learning about balance while building a tech platform.

Topics Covered:
• Why motherhood forced a marketing reckoning. Andria realized she was missing her kids' childhoods trying to keep up on Instagram — and that wake-up call became the catalyst for completely rethinking how she showed up for her business.
• The fear of being forgotten. What it actually felt like to scale back social media when it had been her primary lead source, and how she moved through those fears instead of letting them keep her stuck.
• Long-form content as a business foundation. Andria makes the case for podcasting and blogging over short-form social, explaining how evergreen content compounds over time in a way that Instagram posts simply cannot.
• Quality over quantity, and what that actually means. One weekly podcast episode plus one blog post per month versus daily posting: why less, done intentionally, outperforms more, done frantically.
• Dopamine hits vs. real business growth. The moment Andria realized that likes and comments don't pay the bills, and how she found a more meaningful (and more profitable) version of that reward through long-form content engagement.
• Why podcast listeners make better clients. Andria explains how being "in someone's ears" while they do laundry or go for a walk creates an intimacy that social media's flat, curated feed can never replicate, and how that translates to warmer leads and shorter sales cycles.
• Letting go of perfectionism in content creation. The accidental Christmas recording-on-her-phone moment that changed how Andria thought about production quality, and what she learned when her listeners loved it.
• Content ownership and platform risk. Getting locked out, censored, or watching your platform collapse overnight, Andria talks about why building on rented land is a genuine business risk and how long-form content gives you something no algorithm can take away.
• Her current social media diet. Instagram is basically a dead zone; Threads gets 30–45 minutes a week; and her business is just fine. What that looks like in practice, and what she actually focuses on instead.
• Starting before you're ready: the case for podcast guesting. Not sure if podcasting is for you? Andria's advice is to go be a guest first, and her broader reminder that blogging and YouTube are also legit long-form paths.

• How the zine community creates serendipitous human connection, like meeting the maker of your favorite zine at a festival six months after buying it
• Why children growing up in a digital-first world need the opposite of skeuomorphism: translation tools to help them understand offline, embodied experiences
• The power of slowing down with a typewriter, embracing typos, and treating imperfection as part of the creative process
• Simple zine ideas to get started: "shit I saw on my walk," color collections, lists of things you love, scavenger hunt finds
• How making zines with kids can build creativity, focus, and appreciation for physical making
• Why you don't need to escape the internet entirely to benefit from analog creative practices—it's about balance, not binaries

• The moment commerce overtook art in publishing (2008 financial crisis) and opened the floodgates for digital-first media
• Why Gen Alpha kids are somehow more bored by the internet than Millennials and Gen X, they've "reached the end of the internet and there's nothing new under the sun"
• The difference between nostalgia (what we miss) and what kids are actually craving: magic, presence, and something tactile to hold
• Paula's philosophy: "Nostalgia isn't a strategy, Cuqui is," building something new instead of trying to recreate the past
• Why turning down venture capital was essential to building a magazine on her own terms, without growth-at-all-costs pressure
• The painful moment when your kid calls you out for being on your phone when you should be present, and why it stings so much
• How doomscrolling has become a parental habit we model for our children, and what breaking that cycle looks like

• Why our community-building skills were eroding long before 2020, and how American hyper-individualism makes it even harder
• The difference between a "place" and a "space," and how intention transforms physical locations into sites of belonging
• Why building community feels scary (hint: it's a lot like dating), including the risk of harm, rejection, and vulnerability
• How to sustain third spaces financially without capitalist extraction, pay-what-you-can models, creative reciprocity, and trusting that generosity returns
• Creating norms instead of rules, establishing a "spirit of culture" that invites people to relax, show up authentically, and share generously
• Practical first steps for the community-rusty, striking up conversations with strangers, asking about someone's book, attending free library events, and printing flyers offline
• Why restoring humanity starts with yourself, and the radical act of journaling to reconnect with your own humanity before seeking it in others

Topics Covered:

• How social media evolved from an event (something you logged into intentionally) to a constant, exhausting presence that has fundamentally changed our relationship to rest
• Why the fluctuation between cute dog videos and war footage on our feeds is traumatizing our nervous systems and keeping us in a perpetual state of survival mode
• The myth of multitasking and how scrolling while doing other things actually prevents us from achieving flow states and genuine rest
• Social media office hours: what they are, how they help manage capacity, and why setting external expectations protects your internal boundaries
• The "look up" method — a simple embodied practice to interrupt the scroll cycle by literally lifting your eyes, breathing, and asking yourself what you're actually getting from being online
• Why rest isn't boring or uncomfortable: Jordan's definition of rest as the energy, attention, and time you return to yourself, and how that reclamation can be joyful and generative
• The attention economy and how platforms are systematically designed to rob us of our attention, making it crucial to bring intentionality to every interaction with tech
• Why Germans disappear for the entire month of August and what we can learn from cultures that don't treat constant availability as a moral virtue
• The difference between using social media as an event (intentional, time-boxed) versus a default coping mechanism for boredom, mood shifts, or avoidance

• The parallel between leaving social media five years ago and stepping away from AI now—and why both decisions required confronting the fear of being "left behind"
• How the pressure to adopt AI is not organic but the result of billions of dollars in marketing campaigns from companies like OpenAI and Anthropic
• The cognitive and creative costs of outsourcing tasks to AI, including skill erosion and the loss of the ability to think through problems independently

In this trailer, Becky shares why she started the podcast. What broke inside her when generative AI arrived and demanded even more content, faster, forever. She introduces the kinds of conversations you'll hear: writers leaving social media, makers building with analog tools, activists treating rest as political resistance, and everyday people figuring out how to show up online without losing themselves. 

This isn't about going off the grid. It's about asking better questions: What are we trading away when we move everything online? And how do we get it back? If you're burned out, skeptical of big tech, or just miss what it felt like to be bored and unsupervised, this show is for you.
