But What About...

But What About...

In another thrilling episode this week our culture vultures Kam, Uma and Matt discuss three topics in the world of the arts & pop culture. Kam starts off with “whataboutism”, a deflection skill used by many-a-great leaders of the world today; Matt then steers the conversation into his dark but hopeful finding of how tech giants try to stay engaged with their users; and Uma rounds it off with his anticipation of the new Star Trek, hoping for more messages of optimism and idealism from the future.
