Capsule

Happy New Year! Your hosts Sean Chin and Mehek Seyid are back with the first podcast episode of 2018, however sadly, it’s also our last. At least for the time being. We need a long stretch of time to rebalance the priorities in our lives and creative ideas. But freight not, we will be back in some form or another. We promise. Think Game of Thrones or Black Mirror style.  Despite the break, we have an awesome finale episode for you today. We discuss Black Mirror season 4, Coachella, Governor’s Ball, and Boston Calling summer music festival lineups (yay for Eminem!), Ringo Starr gets knighted, and music streaming.  Sean and Mehek then discuss their favourite moments from the podcasting experience, and lessons learned, and what the future holds.
