About this listen
Meet Labubu — the gremlin plush that proves memes don’t just rot your brain online, they move into your bedroom. This episode unpacks how absurd internet culture mutates into physical commodities, from Beanie Babies to Squishmallows to Labubu hype drops. Along the way: Haraway’s cyborg manifesto, Baudrillard’s hyperreality, and Marx’s commodity fetishism. Late capitalism: now available in cuddly, limited-edition form.
