020. VALERIE & CHAD - has the meritocracy of fame fragmented Pop Culture and music beyond repair?

ALL THIS NOISE

17-11-2023 • 51 mins

It’s time for another Val / Chad episode on All This Noise, and they’ve got plenty of takes to go around the Thanksgiving podcast table. Their overarching conversation is how fame is changing and the cascading effect it’s having on the Pop Culture and music landscape, including: recaps of the Fred Again shows at the Shrine, does the average person know who he even is?, why the EDM boom in America can be attributed to Downtown LA in the late 2000’s, wondering if your mom knows any of the current music stars, why we have less and less universal headliners, the impact of celebrity-endorsed fast food menu items, Pumpkin Spice vs. Ice Spice confusion, the current deconstruction of artists like Justin Timberlake and Drake, why country music slaps, and the things they are grateful for this year.
