A world without advertising? Wishful thinking. Or is it? Omar’s interrogating how and why ads weave through our lives, and if a world without them is conceivable. Today's episode features two conversations: Ryan Lough discusses his background making ads and his new film You Need This, which interrogates consumerism and hyper-capitalism, and Andrew Oswald shares his perspective as a professor of economics and behavioral science.
