Topic: Celebrity Agents

A high-end corporate event in New York featured the Parkland student activists alongside major celebrities like Jennifer Lopez, Shawn Mendes, and Trevor Noah. The hosts suggest that the students now have professional agents and are being booked for appearances in the same manner as Hollywood stars. This "celebrity" status for student activists is criticized as a form of exploitation or a sign of a highly organized political machine.

In response to a listener suggestion, the hosts discuss the challenges of running a dedicated interview podcast. They explain the difficulty of booking high-level celebrities who often refuse to appear on independent podcasts. They clarify that while they do long-form interviews for "Best Of" shows, they have no intention of creating a separate interview-only feed.
