In this episode, Alev, Anuja and their producer Karsten share stories about their consumption related shame and regret.

We discuss the idea of travel as a liminal space for carefree consumption, how governments might encourage consumption as a form of citizenship, and fandom related remorse (including a dig at Harry Potter). Finally, Karsten shares thoughts on how parents might feel helpless against consumer culture and the marketplace’s influence on children.

At the end, we acknowledge our privilege in being able to participate in consumption and have these conversations.
