Fascinating and kinda disturbing conversation. Over the years, I have tried to support local creators, buying books, art, and going to films as much to encourage more creativity as to just enjoy what I get. I don’t use social media that much, so I’m always the last to discover whatever is going on. The subtle manipulation of the audience to buy my merch because I enjoy the podcast hadn’t occurred to me. I guess this is just an updated version of watching one local TV news program because you like the anchors.
