Your opinion on immigration is lacking nuance. Yeah, we said it. But if you’re reading this, you’re in luck. Because here on the Metalomics Podcast, we are trying to make nuance cool; and looking at immigration through an economic lens is a good place to start. On this episode, we continue our deep dive into the complex phenomena that is immigration, and hope that you, the lucky listener, will leave feeling more informed than ever about this important topic.

You probably have an opinion on immigration; or at least you’ve heard someone else’s. It’s just as likely these opinions appear in their final form, bereft of the logic or details that support them. In this episode, we interrogate the particulars of people’s opinions on immigration, and map where those opinions land on the political spectrum. We hope you’ll join us in questioning how these opinions are formed, and, more importantly, whether or not these opinions really belong to you. Wherever you think you’re at on the issue of immigration, you may reconsider after hearing this episode. We downright encourage it.

So, we are going to own nothing. Who cares!? If giving up my right to hold on to a CD or vinyl or cassette means I get access to the celestial jukebox and the infinite volumes floating inside, what’s the big deal? “Sounds like a fair trade for something as “trivial” as music,” you may say. Well, we at METALOMICS don’t think music is trivial at all. In fact, we believe quite the opposite. But if we had one retort to this straw man argument, it would be this: When it comes to owning nothing, just how much nothing are we willing to own? Join us on today’s episode as we extend our analysis beyond subscription music and conclude this 3-part series by examining the true costs and benefits of serving the newest generation of feudal lords.
