DID YOU KNOW...

Almost 46 years ago to the day (Sept. 29, 1979),
61,143 fans gathered to watch Slippery Rock vs. Shippensburg in Ann Arbor, Michigan at The Big House. It remains the largest crowd ever assembled to watch a Division II football game.

New pod: The rise of "dopamine culture" and the decline of pop culture in America

First, I discuss the Ted Gioa's argument that pop culture is being turned into a virtual casino of the mind that is better at producing reward-seeking behavior than quality art.

Then, I talk to @skornhaber about his long Atlantic essay "Is This the Worst-Ever Era of American Pop Culture?" and what he identified as the four horsemen of the pop culture apocalypse

1. Stagnation: the economics of pop culture nostalgia, the staggering challenges of making big original movies, and the algorithmic and private-equity dynamics elevating old music over new music

2. Cynicism: how an obsession with identity has flattened creativity in the visual arts and beyond

3. Isolation: e.g., bands and bars slowly being replaced by music that people make alone in their rooms with computers for an audience of ... people listening alone in their rooms with computers

4. Attention rot: it's not easy aiming for quality in a world where ppl are losing the capacity to pay attention to anything for more than a few seconds

Finally, I ask: If every decade is inevitably considered a golden age of something in culture ... what will the 2020s be known as the golden age of?

BREAKING: Cleveland will be the newest city to have a WNBA franchise, per @TomFriendWriter.

The team is expected to join the league in 2028 and will reprise the name Cleveland Rockers, the original team name of the franchise when it folded in 2003.

As Lane Thomas' grand slam today reached the bleachers, the man who caught it immediately handed it to another fan seated in a wheelchair.

The two are cousins, bonded through a love for baseball and who’ve leaned on each other through recent heartache.

Kent State coach Rob Senderoff classy in a tough spot. He said Rollins lost track of time,
score in final seconds.
“As I told the team, I should have called a timeout there. I do not blame Julius. There’s 100 plays in the game and that was just one of them.”

[The Ringer @ringer]

He shoots more 3-pointers than Prime Steph, and his team is nearly unbeatable when he has a green light. Meet Sam Merrill, the greatest 3-point shooter you’ve never heard of.

“The jobs tend to be seen as ‘women's work’ due to stereotypes that women are more communal/giving than men. When women decline these requests, they are often penalized for it. Meanwhile, men can say no with less pushback and are often praised when they take on these tasks.” 2/2

“….we are talking about office housework-tasks that help the company run smoothly but aren't acknowledged in performance reviews and don't lead to advancement. Office housework includes tasks like taking notes, planning events, and onboarding new hires.” 1/2

After I was convicted of murder and sentenced to 26 years in prison, when the earth dropped out from beneath me, and global shame rained down on top of me, I had my first ever epiphany.
