Media, Culture, and Why we feel like crying so much Stefanie Chae and Grant Lattanzi

The audio is a little shaky in this episode, but bear with us as we talk about ideological contradictions, such as Taylor Swift and the Oscars, and we share quotes from Herbert Marcuse’s “Aggressiveness in Advanced Industrial Society” and Carlee Gomes’s “The Puritanical Eye: Hyper-mediation, Sex on Film, and the Disavowal of Desire.”
